Thanks. There are a lot of nice ones out there and I've struggled to pull the trigger on a new one but with some incentives this summer and the option of the All-star pkg which provides a good level of features without a top pkg, I was sold. No shot against stock setup but a change to the wheels and tires was cheap compared to jumping pkgs so I had this in mind when I bought the truck.

20x10 Hostile Sprocket, -19 offset with Toyo Open Country 33X12.50R20LT rubber. Slight rubbing on full lock on the driver side but not bad. The truck was already leveled when I bought it so I'm not sure the brand, etc but it was sitting pretty high.

 

Thanks to Bigfoot16 for all the help on the offset, etc. I basically copied his setup (haha)

Did you have to trim anything to run this set up?

Look on eBay, they are all over eBay. I forget the exact name of the company but they are legit and have outstanding replicas and definitely 20's as well

Problem is the wheel is still wider than the rim and stretched tires are fail.

22x9 PVD chrome OE Replica wheels with 24mm offset and 305/40r22 Falken Ziex S/TZ 05 tires which are the same height as the factory 17" tires so no speedometer etc issues. Stock height up front and the rear was slightly lowered by installing 2" drop shackles and removing the leaf spring spacer block. In certain situations during a full left turn such as while hitting a bump the left front tire rubs a bit on the inside of the wheel well liner but otherwise no issues.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
