Definitely looks way more proportionate with the lift. Being lowered before, it always seemed LOOOONG. I guess I see more of the shorter bed crew cabs.

Looks great dude

Sucks. Pickups need all the help they can get. I remember my Dakota 5.9 R/T that was full posi- spun that thing a few times, once across all 5 lanes of the I-205 bridge into Washington. Hit the concrete barrier on the far right side, started spinning in the far left lane. I just hammered it to pass a slow driver and yeeeeehaaaaw mother fu**er. It was fun to drift on a wet freeway at 70-80, just hammer it and it would go sideways. Not so much fun when you’re not ready for it.

ya this thing just got squirrely as hell on me in the rain. I am used the light ass end but dam this is ridiculous, does fine when it's dry read some more reviews and some say they are slick in rain or snow, appears they are more suited for a bit more off-road use wont work for me. I should be able to get $200 each if I list them on ebay and ship

Been having some ongoing electrical problems, seem to have a gremlin, mostly affects the radio and cluster, could be a lot of different things but figured I would start with the battery cables, the starter cable was a bit fried and lots of extra glue on it but never had any problem starting, the new cable I tripple wrapped it in teflex on the lower half and then some super 88 on top of that, I get lots of various codes most of them seem to be related to the ebcm so if the problem isn't the cables I will try it next just to see, the issue is intermittent and wide range of codes so just trying to shotgun it and cross my fingersPXL_20201123_214205041.jpg PXL_20201123_214250892.jpg PXL_20201123_223253915.jpg

Pretty new truck to have those kinds of problems isn’t it? Why do you think the starter cable was fried?
