Finnaly got some new stuff! :-D

2 inch Billet Ready Lift, 275/65/20 GY Duratracs, Platinum Wheels, and Leer 700 Tonneau.

Sorry about the over exposure. Was suppose to be sunny, but in Oregon you can't count on it.





BFG - you lose because you do not know how to plan your manufacturing. They are on back order with no eta. DuraTracs in stock and was ready to go.

 

Rogue,

Nice looking truck! How is the ride and MPG? I'm considering the Bilstein 5100 route myself but am open to options. I had a factory front driver strut that was defective I discovered leaking at 500 miles so If another goes im going aftermarket. I've got the Pirellis on mine so that is another motivating factor. How are the duratracs in rain?

 

Uch, those pirellis. I think thay are close to universally hated, the sooner you get em swapped away the better!

 

Thanks! The ride is good. A little more harsh because is a 10 ply tire, but not bad. I do notice a little drop in mpg, but I think that is because of the larger size. The DuraTracs are great in the rain. This is the second set I have had. I put them on 2005 and was happy. The superduty guys say there a little soft in the sidewall and I agree, but it is only a problem when towing or hauling heavy loads.

Ditch the Pirellis. They suck!

 

That looks great. I think the Duratracs look better than the BFGs anyway. JMO

 

Thanks Nassty!!

 

Look's great...good job!!

 

Nice!!!

 

Gerrard & Rogue,

Yeah I knew when my truck arrived that the pirellis had to go. They seem "fragile".
I considering waiting till late summer to switch them out as there are only a couple months left of potential "bad" weather, and it gives me an opportunity to plan upgrades with the tire swap
Ironically SUV guys like the ATR's.
Rogue - are you going to calibrate your speedometer?

 

Thanks Pawpaw and Desert Dawg!

 

Yeah, I am going to ask my dealer next time I am in.

 

Looks great!!

 

Thanks hydro1!

 

Rogue, have you had any rubbing issues at all?

I am considering the 275/65/20's or the 285/60/20's that DesertDawg has.

Will be leveling with Bilistein 5100's.

 

Nope, no rubbing!
