Not real certain that I could pull that off...Looks like alot of fun, but even with the right truck I'd find the twenty foot deep ravine that no one knew was there.

Apparently I really like front-quarter photos...

just bought it a month ago, ideas on what to do?


possibilities in the near future:


- dynomax bullet dual exhaust

- leveling kit with a 3" lift

- black bull bar with lights

- blackout tail lights?

- keep the rims chrome or black those out as well?

......


up for any ideas, let me know please!

I would go with a Corsa Sport exhaust.

2"-2.5" level and 3" rear block

Recon smoked LED tail lights

I like a chrome rim

 

This is just my personal opinion

It's completely flat I know this because that's the drag strip it's only like 3" water no drop offs

It's not there until I try it, then it opens as if Moses himself was there. That's just my luck. :dunno:

Beautiful truck reds, congratulations.

Hey I was looking into cat-back exhusts and someone earlier had recomended a corsa exhaust, I looked it up and I know some small differences between the corsa and the db by corsa but are the basics? Also, where can you find the exhaust system the cheapest? Thanks guys!

Same muffler. dB does not have a flex pipe at the cat connection and some feel that this makes the AFM resonance more noticeable I could hear it on mine but it was not unbearable. The pipes are a lower grade stainless than the Corsa. I have not quite two years on my exhaust and there is some surface oxidation but nothing I'd think would cause rust through any time soon. Also, the tip is different- it is a single wall like you'd find on most other systems compared to the dual outlet/dual wall tip on Corsa systems. I think I paid like $550 plus shipping from Summit. This is a youtube vid I made after installing the exhaust:

The Corsa tip looks amazing. I love mine.

wow that video helped so much more! im trying to find a louder deeper exhaust and i almost was about to go with a dynomax exhaust and it would only be like 330 plus tax. but apart from all of the different videos i have looked at, im still not 100% sure. only cuz im sure you know before you bought your corsa that it sounds completely different in a video versus real life. was the $550 at summit for the db or no? and i would say im pretty new at all this struck stuff, i use to drive a custom vw gli turbo and its alot different that a truck.lol so whats the best was to get a deeper "throaty" sound, bigger tips like 5-6 inches vs. the 3-4? also, what looks better, double output by each wheel, dual output on the stock side or single on the stock side?

    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
