  1. Little comparison with my other 2018 Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  2. Not enough cut to worry about.
  3. I'd be more worried about rubbing than gears Take a look... Tell me that's not going to rub.
  4. I really want to take a minute to thank the Guys at On the Rocks 4x4 Lonsdale MN for the installation of the lift kit. They took the time to go over everything with me. Very helpful with all my questions. Rock solid outfit. They get 5 stars from me. www.ontherocks4by4.com Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  5. I'm running 37's on a 9" McGaughys with my 5.3 3.42's It's not as bad as everyone makes it sound. It gets down the road just fine. Half of those guys are running stock trucks so they really are just going by what they heard. Sure it could use some 4.10-4.56 gears but I'm not racing anyone so I really don't care.
  6. I could pull that off if I had the cash.[emoji16] My wife isn't that observant. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

  8. Before and after Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk It lurks in the last pic
  9. I knew I was going to take a hit. I was thinking I would lose 5mpg. Should I get some charts going so we can compare notes?????
  10. Makin the rounds this morning Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  11. When I was a drinker, for whiskey it was Canadian Windsor.
  12. Also , she likes to drink more gas. Even with speedometer off I can tell the gas gauge moves down faster . If I had to guess it's probably around 13-14mpg. Who cares gas is $1.59[emoji38] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  13. These pics don't do justice. I just got done cleaning it up and got to dark for some pics. I had a little rub on the valance I trimmed the plastic with a mini grinder. No more rub. Ill get some pics in the morning and put them up.
  14. It's got the add a leafs. I want a little rake.
  15. Props to Andover Wheel and Frame. Andover MN. They got it dialed in BTW the Roadrunner is sweet 440 six pack pistol grip 4 speed Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  16. Picked it up last night. It's HUGE. When the installer took it in for alignment it wouldn't fit on their rack. So he knocked off $80 . I'm going to run it into a shop near me that has a big rack this morning . No biggie. First driving impressions.... It drives great. Way better than I thought it would. It's also not as much of a dog I thought it would be. Actually I may leave the 3.42's for now. I'll probably change my mind when I hook a trailer up to it. But for mall crawling it's fine. Speedometer is way off . GPS indicated 70 mph speedometer says 59. I'll get that taken care of today with the RC calibrator. Stopping the beast is something I need to get used to. It takes a lot more brake pedal to slow her down. I got a little rub on the upper valance. I removed the lower section. So I need to get that trimmed out. I may just do a minor NorCal to the rear of the front wheel wells. Those little plastic flaps on the front of the rear wheelwells need to go. Not much clearance. I never liked those stupid looking things anyways. The truck sits dead level. I'm going to replace the shackles on the rear to get the ass end up another 1.5". I'm afraid once I hook up my trailer or put some weight in it, it's going to be saggy I don't do saggy. That Cali lean/Carolina squat look is hideous. A slight rake on a lifted truck is badass if you ask me. Looks like it means business. I need to tidy up a few things and I'm good. I'll get some pics up today hopefully. Keep the six foot rule guys. I almost got into it with a guy a Home Depot yesterday. He came walking up to me and I said "Back off Jack" . He got all offended. To F'ing bad dumbass.
  17. I already told him that . He won't let it go. Sad . He probably wears Depends so he can keep driving.
  18. Lower control arm angle looks flat as a pancake. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  19. Bottom half of valance removed. I probably have to hack off some off the top part. Possible partial NorCal on the rear of the wheel well. Not sure he said its close.
  20. Actually I haven't seen it yet he has to get the front end alignment done tomorrow. I pick it up at 5pm I won't be able to sleep tonight I am jacked?? I'll give a full report Tuesday. Glad you're still working . I'm not.
  21. Thanks Frankie. I can't wait until you lift yours too. But your truck still looks pretty damn good the way it sits now ?
  22. I just read through all your posts like a rock. Every one of them has you complaining. Go buy a Ford or dodge so you will be happy. You must live a miserable life.
  23. Really? You need to get a grip pal.
  24. I do threads like these to see what the trends are. What guys like and dont like. Obviously this retro look is never going to catch on and that's probably a good thing. It's grandpa look for sure. I'm a grandpa and I kind of like it but I think one color on top and another on bottom would look better than the one I showed. One thing for sure, is most of you guys must not like any wheels larger than 22x12. And hey that's cool but if you go to any shows if you're not rolling on 24's you don't get much attention. 26's are currently at the top of the food chain. If you're not into show trucks that's fine but big wheels are in and that's a fact. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
