    New wheels!

    Thanks! They took about 6 weeks to come in. I was going to change my order in the 11th hour because one of the customer service reps at NTW thought it would be another 6 weeks. Then, they showed up the next business day before they had time to switch my order so I kept them. I am glad I did...

    New wheels!

    Thanks man. It's good to hear positive feedback. You kind of take a gamble when you order wheels because you never know how they will look on your truck. I ordered the wheels, tires and lift kit from ntwonline.com in Wheeling, WV. They matched the lowest prices I saw and gave really good...

    New wheels!

    I ended up keeping the 18" chrome Trax wheels. Got them installed last week with the 37" Toyos. Here's a few pics.... :sly

    Muffler deleted, milegae dropped! HELP!!

    I gained 2-3 MPG after installing the MBRP Cool Duals (cat-delete) on my 05'. Used the MBRP muffler though. I lost 2-3 when adding the 35" tires, then did the MBRP + the AFE stage II and gained it back.

    stinky exhaust fumes

    I had my 4" turbo back MBRP Cool Duals exhaust installed 6 weeks ago (w/ the cat delete pipe). Ever since then, the diesel fumes have become really strong at idle. My wife doesn't like riding with me because she says it stinks so bad. Is this normal?

    Normal EGT readings

    I'm also running 750-850 EGTs when cruising on the highway some times. Yesterday, I took a buddy for a joy ride (no trailer) and it touched close to 1,200 in level 5. I've got the Edge Juice Plat too and just installed the air filter a few weeks ago. I had a shop install the programmer and...

    New wheels!

    My chrome Trax 8 wheels were taking too long so I switched them for the teflon Dominators! 18x9.5 wrapped in 37x13.5 Toyo MTs. I should have them on my truck with the 6" lift in a week and a half! :woo Here's a photo shop of the new wheels on my truck...

    $500 to install an Edge Juice Platinum w/ Attitude?

    I ended up getting a local performance shop here, Trick Trucks, to do it for $80. They did a great job too, even painted my pillar mount to match the beige interior. It's been over 2 weeks with the Edge in my truck and I am very happy. The power is amazing. Even on levels 1 and 2 it's a...

    Hello People

    Dang, I didn't know you did all that just last week! The wife is probably just starting to talk to you again, maybe it's better you wait a few weeks. :D I hear you about letting the checking account breathe. Mine is currently suffocating. You got me dreaming about those AMP steps now...

    Anyone towing with a lifted truck?

    I assume you have done the research here seeing your avatar. Question then for ya... I see 12" and 14" drop hitches for sale real cheap on ebay with 500TW/5,000GTW. But that's hard to believe considering their 2" drop hitches carry the same max 500TW/5,000GTW. Does this sound right? Or...

    Anyone towing with a lifted truck?

    I lifted my truck 6" with 37" tires this winter and I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to tow my 6 x 12 enclosed trailer come riding season. Completely stock, I used a 4" drop hitch to keep my trailer level. With the change in lift and tire size, I estimate my truck is now 8.75" higher...

    lifting my dually 4inch or 6inch any one know tires sizes

    RipperF350- I put a 4" Skyjacker lift on my 05 and the 35" BFGs (actually 34.5") look small under there with a couple inches left of clearance. None of the shops or dealers will admit it but I'm pretty sure I could get 37s under there easily with no rubbing at all. Might need to pull back the...

    New wheels

    Actually, the shop owner called me Tuesday with an attitude because he heard I mentioned to his friend that my truck lost hp after they installed the intake and exhaust. He thought I was bad mouthing his shop, which I wasn't. As a paying customer, dude has no business giving me $hit and...

    Lost horsepower with intake and exhaust

    I haven't dyno'd again since the intake and exhaust were installed 2 weeks ago. But, I have noticed the power has improved. I am curious to see if the numbers are much higher now. I'm thinking they would be.

    New wheels

    They're chrome. After seeing them on my truck and hearing my wife's (negative) reaction, I don't really like them anymore. Only problem, the local shop just had them shipped in for me. :doh:

    New wheels

    I have these 17" Pro Comp 6001s waiting for me at the local performance shop to put on Wednesday. I made this photo shop to see how they'll look. What does everyone think? Too much bling? :confused:

    How much warm up time is needed in cold weather?

    I let mine warm up for at least 10 minutes if I can. It's about 10-20 here now too. Then again, I've got a friend that drives his 03 F250 like he stole it, never lets it warm up and he's got 180,000 miles on the clock and it's running fine. :doh: I've been letting my turbo cool down for a...
