  1. Buy 4 get 1 free! Basically you get one rear shock free, $75 mail in rebate. Front's are $105ea. and the rears are $75each so they are slightly cheaper than the 5100's to start and a great deal after the rebate.
  2. I just ordered last week my Pro Comp Pro Runner shocks that are suppose to be very similar to the 5100's, only difference being it has only 2 height settings vs. 3 for the 5100. Plus they are running a crazy deal right now with a rebate so I couldn't pass it up, they should arrive tomorrow. I'll get the rears installed asap but the fronts will probably wait a little bit due to it being way to hot here and me being lazy.
  3. I believe the 30" is the max but I'm sure with some cutting of the plastic sides that are behind the grill you could fit a 40" with no problem.
  4. I just installed a set of LED lights into my low beams last night, so far I'm very impressed with the light output and they work with my DRL's. Here are a couple of pics with just the low beams turned on.
  5. You don't need a 2.5 or 3.5 to fit 33's, I ONLY have a front RC 2". I didn't have to trim a single thing and there is NO rubbing at all, there is still a ton of room. If I'd went with the 3.5" I would only put 35x12.50 tires since the 33's would look small.
  6. Wiring was very easy, I just use a harness from an HID kit so that it was completely plug and play. Just connect/splice the HID harness and LED pig tails together than use the plug end and just plug right into the stock plug so there is no damage done to the stock harness.
  7. I'm running this bar from ebay, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Eyourlife-32-34-180W-Spot-LED-Light-Bar-Flood-ComboDriving-ATVSUV-Wiring-Kit-/301587405009?hash=item46380298d1&vxp=mtr . Haven't had a single problem with it at all, seems pretty bright and for the money you can't beat it. Yes, Rigid has a "hyper spot" beam that will blow these out the water BUT your spending a lot of $$$$... Don't get me wrong if I had the money I would buy a Rigid or X!, why wouldn't I want the best... But since I don't have the cash these ebay bars will do just fine for me and work great so far.
  8. No, left the back stock.
  9. I'm pretty happy with them so far, they ride very smooth but have a little hum at highway speeds. The hum is more of a higher pitch sound than the Toyo MT's but they are not annoying loud. The ride is very smooth, not one complaint about that area yet.
  10. Not a problem at all, they fit really well with plenty of clearance.
  11. RC 2" front only - 33x12.50 Atturo MT - 18x9" w/ 0 offset.
  12. 33x12.50r18 Atturo MT and 18x9 w/ 0 offset
  13. Gas mileage went to S**T! Before I put the 33" on I had 275-65-18's, I was getting around 17.5 average for both city and highway. Now after the 33" it went down to like 14.5-15!!!
  14. She sounds pretty smart to me lol 33" are the way to go! Anything smaller just looks to "small" for the truck, I love my MT's!
  15. You won't have any issues with rubbing at all, those are the same size tires I'm running. Fits perfect.
  16. Sorry for the crappy pics, I'll take some more tonight hopefully. I just put on 33x12.50r18 tires, Atturo Trail Blade... RC 2", with absolutely NO rubbing and NO trimming of anything!! There is still PLENTY of space. Wheels are 18x9 with 0 offset.
  17. I currently run the RC 2" (Old Kit) on mine, put it on about a year ago and haven't had a single problem at all. I'm also running 33x12.50r18 with NO rub at all
  18. I don't but I can get one tonight and post it tomorrow, it just barely sticks out.
  19. I just installed the aFe Momentum GT intake, this made a big difference in throttle response. I started with a K&N drop in filter but decided to go with an intake, night and day difference in response. The only thing negative thing I noticed when I put on the intake was the acceleration was "rougher" (not talking about the noise), less refined is the best way I can describe it. It didn't bother me but I did notice this as well as my wife when she was driving it. However I decided to add the aFe TB Spacer, this brought back the refinement to the acceleration. I can't say that I notice it made much of a difference in power, mostly top end seemed to pull more consistent but it did make it much smoother like stock but kept the added throttle response. I really like the way the two work together, makes the truck much more enjoyable to drive and to get on the gas. Not only do I have the added power/throttle response but also the refinement is back.
  20. I'm sure during their latest testing they noticed that the standard radiator couldn't handle the heat, having heating problems like mine, and that is why they now only offer the NHT radiator as standard.
  21. I would love to switch my radiator out for the bigger NHT one. Just two weeks ago I went to California towing about ONLY 1000lb, from AZ, and there is one decent size hill to climb. The temp outside was about 105 deg, about halfway up the hill sure enough my temp gauge started to move, it moved only an 1/8th but still I didn't think it would actually move barely towing 1000lb.
  22. Sorry for the delay on getting up some pictures, I just have been super busy and haven't taken any pics yet. The new Fogs put out great light! I have one Fog and one Spot cube on each side, they are also point just slightly out to provide great lighting on the sides. My center light is a 30" Combo bar, this fills in the center lighting from my fogs. All together the light output is great!
  23. I don't have any night shots yet, but YES there is a BIG difference between my current set up and the stock set up. The Fogs are pointed just slightly out to provide better side light and the bar takes care of the center light need. My LED Bar is also a combo beam so overall the light spread is great between the bar and the fogs.
