It all started March 19, 2011 when I purchased the truck completely stock.




Around July of 2011 I ordered dimpled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads, 17x9 -12mm Fuel Hostages and 35x12.5r17 Trail Grappler M/T and a Rough Country 6" Lift

I was told real ganstas aint ever scared so I went to 22x11 -25mm offset XD Diesels and added the adjustable Bilstein Struts, they put the front at about 7.5" of lift.

That weekend at Red Creek NOLA turned out a little expensive and took the wind out of my sails for a little while, but I still have big plans and big dreams.

Two broken motor mounts, messed up the rear seal, messed up the transmission, broke the 4x4, locked up calipers etc..... $5700 later shes back to new

Details on the transmission:

Banner Kit
High Flow Filter
High Performance Band
Billet Torque Converter (not sure on the stall but he told me he got the lowest available, higher than factory for sure though)
High performance shift kit
EPC Solenoid
TCC Solenoid
Heavy Duty Upgrade on kit -Master Overhaul
Updated and Modified Servos
Recalibrated Valve Plate for shift firmness
Updated Valve body
Transfer Case Reseal Kit
Transmission Fluid

600hp capable
3 year/50,000 mile warranty
