J-C,
Regarding the sticking out tires....
I'm just happy that the truck is silver. Dirt does not show on it half as bad as the black 150 that I had previous to this truck. Just got home right now after driving in a thunderstorm all morning. With the exception of the polished wheels, truck still looks perfectly clean. :-) I love black but with how little the dirt shows on this silver truck, I don't know if I could go back.

Just gotta take a little extra care not to spin the tires when pulling the boat out of the water. I would be cleaning mud off the boat for days!

Take care..

 

Chris,

I think you are on to something here with your new website. Three wks ago I ordered a 250SD, 4x4, CC, V-10, Lariat, ..... and hopefully someday could grace your site.

What suspension set up did you use on your truck?

mike

 

The suspension was a 4 inch lift by Superlift. Although Superlift has always made a great/reliable product, the new springs are a bit stiffer then the factory set. You might want to look into National Spring or Skyjacker for a softer leaf.

Have Fun,
Chris

4x4: I noticed in your sig that you added a flowmaster to your SD. What engine do you have???

What I'm really trying to find out is if a performance muffler (cat-back) can be added to the psd??? Maybe tone down that clatter-clatter diesel sound???

 

Hey! Everybody Check out Jason Julian. That one bad *** truck. THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT THE HEART BEAT STOPS HERE.
The Difference is from Dodge and ya'll all no where the other part comes from. Thinking about doing that to my truck when it comes in.
