Buy my wheels/tires combo! lol.
Id say just tune it, gear it, maybe a servo and youll be good. If you go anywhere from there youll need a built tranny. Learn from my mistake of trying to beef up a lifted truck lol
lol i don't have a 6" lift, and only running 33's lol won't be as bad as urs. i hope so atleast.
where is the best place to get exhaust parts? should i go with long tube or shorties, i want to run 3in all the way back, is that a good idea with these trucks?
Go long tubes and some Magnaflows. You can do 3 in Im sure. 2 and 3/4 is fine though.
where to get? also, should i go ahead and get all this stuff, or should i just save for a few months and get a 6.0 with 4L80e, i know i will have problems mounting with my transfer case right? I want to get a 6.0 and build it. should i get a lq4 or lq9, the only difference is the pistons that change the compression ratio, correct? so if i was going to doing a total build and put forged internals, than i should just go with a lq4 since i am taking out the rotating assembly right?
if you want a 6L and 80e you're best off to get it with the transfer case since the heavier transmission is going to require the 2500 and larger series transfer case and xfer case input shaft configuration. You're always best off to get it all at once rather than piece-mealing it.
yea i just priced a 6.0 from a 03-06 ( not sure if it is lq4 or lq9) and transmission for 1750, that seem ok for it having 80k miles? i have 73k on my truck right now, so it is not that far off from my actual miles. if i get the 2500 transfer case also, will i need to get different driveshafts? ones that come on a 2500 ext. cab? would they be a direct replacement.
You can come to Malvern AR and help me with my cam install if you want lol :)Quote:
