Did the BDS 6" with Fox shocks. 22x12 Sprockets on 33" Toyo MT's. Rides like stock, no rub no trimming.

Crappy pic, but this was right after it pulled out of the garage last night. 4.5 zone with fox in the rear, 35x12.50r20 nitto ridge grapplers on stock elevation rims. Ride seems better then stock, i

That looks great! Any issues with the MRC on install?

Ordered my 20x12's, should be here Tuesday. Thinking about the toyo rt 35/12.50, and Mcgauphy 7-9 black ss lift unless anyone else has better ideas

From all the research I have done, McGuaghy's is a really good ride and supposedly better than BDS, Rough Country, and the cheaper lifts out there. Occasionally some people have gotten bad rear shocks with the kit and have had to send them back in for another set. If you got the money then you should get Bulletproof or Full Throttle Suspension, but that price is nasty haha. I got the 7-9 McGaughy's SS black kit in with a add a leaf to set at 9" and got a 1.5" Zone body lift. Just waiting on my 22x12's and 37x13.50s to come in and hopefully will have her up in the air in a week or two.

Thanks for the reply, can't wait to see the end result when you get yours done. Really hoping to improve the looks, and ride. Hoping I don't need the extra leaf with it set at 8".

Looking for suggestions on rubber. Currently happy with the nitto Terra grapplers, looking for something a little more aggressive looking, but not wanting full on mud terrains rumbling down the highway at 80.

Someone suggested toyo rt's, any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Hey guys starting to build my truck I have a 2015 all terrain I'm undecided between 3 kits looking at the 1. 6in bds with coil overs 2. Fts 7in with coilovers or 3. 6in fabtech performance with 2.5 dirt logic coilovers. Any help on which to go with

Four Wheeler Network seems to be impressed with the Cooper Discoverer STT Pro. It is a mud tire, but they say it has good road manners with only a slight him.

 

Those look, and sound awesome according to the article, thank you.

Oops, thank you

      This is interesting. My quote tagged here is different from my original quote. After I’m driving them longer. That isn’t me. I don’t talk that way. I definitely wouldn’t express myself that way. Interesting.

      What have you done to your K2 today?

      By UrbanRage · Posted

      I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.
