New Stuff On Truck!

lsuguy · November 27, 2009

Hey guys I finally added some stuff to my truck. I have 2" rough country level, 3" Zone Offroad body lift, 20" XD Monsters, 305/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers, Dominator II sidesteps.

Heres some pics I took earlier today.

I LOVE the new setup. Just enough lift for me to feel higher than everyone else. The ride is close to stock. A little rougher but nothing crazy. Tires ride nice and aren't loud. The rims look amazing in my opinion and the steps work perfect with the truck and really help out my gf with getting in and out.

Not sure what I'm adding next to my truck. Thinking of denali grille and bumpers but not sure. I need to do something about exhaust for sure what to do yet.

Let me know what you guys think.

Looks great, I'm a big fan of the all black.

It looks awesome Brett! Did you do the work or have a shop do it?

NEEDS gap guards.

Looks badass bro. Thinkin bout the zone 3" lift myself now. Was it hard to install? I wouldnt do a debali grille since uve already got the all black thing going. Maybe just black out the chrome surround and emblem? And sone fog ligjts would look good too.

Looks good man!!! I like that set up. Do you have any rubbing with those tires?

Also a denali grill would look good and a set of denali taillights would look good too.

Looks awesome man!

Hurry up and make some gap guards though!

Oh, and for the exhaust... just cut it off and go with the "no exhaust" look... makes the truck look cleaner IMO and cutting off the resonator gives it some good sound. Well... at least with my 6.2L it made a noticeable difference, i've had people ask me what kind of muffler i was running

Ballin bro....

Sweet look.

I didn't do the work myself. I had a local shop do it so I spent a little more money than most people but I have no clue how to install these things and I really wanted a professional to do it. The side steps I did do myself and those were really easy to install. Had my dad help and took about an hour with us taking our time.

The tires have no rubbing what so ever, any bigger though and I'd have problems.

sk1er I will deff be doing that to my exhaust. I remember you saying that in another thread and I will be doing that soon.

As far as gap gaurds go should I fab up my own?? I think it was AllBlkdOut07 who told me he fabbed up his own really easy.

I also have a question about psi for my tires. What should I run them at for best wear results??

Make your own gap guards.... $40 worth of materials, you'll need a 36"x36" sheet of weather/oil resistant rubber from mcmaster.com and get some tree clips from home depot or lowes. 8" for each rear wheel well and 10" for each front wheel well. Then trim to shape and use the clips to hold them in place. (see pics).

For tires... 40 front / 35 rear is what I run and works very well. I wouldn't go any higher than that.

Looks great man, I love the look of it!

One suggestion other than the gap guards.... Remove the bottom plastic peice of the bumper (the very bottom one!) It makes the truck look taller than it actually is and it only held in by 2 screws and some clips. I took mine off and it just makes it look like its sitting higher!

I agree!! Remove the lower, lower valance piece. I have on my truck with no affects.

Removing the lower valance was one thing I was going to do today but forgot. It is comming off by the end of the weekend though. And thanks for the suggestions on the gap gaurds.
