Great look! I have been considering this tire size and am interested in knowing the pros and cons of such an upgrade.

Great look! I have been considering this tire size and am interested in knowing the pros and cons of such an upgrade.

I installed a 2" front level. Pros looks much better, Nitto Terra Grapplers handle better and get much better traction than the Bridgestones. Cons my truck unfortunately came equipped with 308 gearing so it feels a bit more sluggish. Gas mileage went down a little.

The pros certainly outweigh the cons! I have the 4.3 with the 3.42 so I would probably experience similar driving behavior changes as you. Thanks!

I love mines. Image1459612537.837542.jpg

Did you paint your window and side trim? I was thinking about it but I was wondering if it would work out. I used duplicolor custom wrap on the front emblem and it turned out really nice. I was thinking about doing the same for the trim.

Here's my truck still want to delete the chrome. Yes or No?

I like the monochrome look on a truck but prefer the more traditional chrome accents. The fact that you are asking suggests you are not committed to either look. I would personally save your time and money and keep the chrome. It is something you can change at a later date if you become more committed to the painted look. I grew up in a time when painted bumpers were reserved for the economy trims and an abundance of chrome was a goal. My dealer added a chrome package to my truck while it was on the lot (door handles, mirror caps, tow hooks, side steps) in an effort to attract a buyer. At one time I would have thought this was a desirable upgrade, but instead I was annoyed at the impact on the price of the truck!

    • New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

    • Wouldn't swapping out the original AFM/DFM parts for a complete Delete Kit be the best route to go if one could afford to go that route?
    • It comes with directions but yes, generally, it's the same.  Also, get you the dipstick stuff to install dipstick so you have one.
