How big is that block? it looks huge



Looks like it would slip off!

Nice truck though. Is it really slow with that V6 pushing those tires?


You might want to look at getting some gap guards!

mines a 2wd with 5in lift in front and 4in back(all suspension no body)

i was gonna ask the same question as ruffn-it, how much power did you loose. I have a 3" suspension lift and wanna get another 3 inches with a body lift. that height looks awsome that you have!
what size tires are yours too, i think i wanna try and make my truck look like that style! (if thats straight with you) if those tires are 285's that'd be great!!!! mines a 4x2 too, but with the 4.6 V8

DID YOU INSTALL THE AIR INTAKE AND POWER EXHAUST? IF SO WAS IT HARD TO DO?

Gears

IF you want your power and gas millage back you need to get new gears. All those chips, intakes, and a new exhaust will help but get new gears if you want your power back. You said you ahd 10.5" of lift so what size tires are you running. I would probably go 4.56 gears depending on your tire size. It ould only cost about 600 bucks which is the same price as the chip and intake but also get your gas back and give you better power.

Intake is about $150, easy to put in. Exhaust, well take that somehwhere to get it done, mine was 400 dollars, dont have a chip but i think their easy to put in and arnt that expensive.

And yea you could do what Southern-Fx4 said, get new gears. I have the stock gears on mine with a 5.4 V8, so i did lose some power, but not too much. I might get new gears eventually. I just dont think 600 dollars is worth it right now.
