No difference that I can tell! Maybe slightly better handling with the lower center of gravity but the ride feels like factory to me 👍
Thanks for the feedback! I love the look of lowered trucks, but I have to admit the look of a lifted truck is good too.

How do you like the B2 fab from stock? Did you do resonator delete?

Looking for something bolt in and reversible down the road.
I like it! Adds a nice rumble but can't tell much under normal driving. It's a little quieter than I expected, I didn't do the resonator delete but I'm thinking about adding that at some point for a little more bark.

Anytime, this is my first time dropping one vs lifting it. So far I love it as far as driveability and everything. Maybe a coincidence but it seems my mpg have bumped noticeable as well.

Today we added racing stripes to my ‘21 Limited Night Edition. Decided to go with matte black 11” wide stripes, accented by thin glossy stripes.

Looks amazing and will look even better once we finish the Ceramic Pro coating on it this week. Cannot wait to see how the light will play off the contrasting blacks.

I’d love to see the view from inside with that pano

It’s an interesting stripe

When I did the resonator delete with my B2 I got drone. Hated it!

Would make sense as far as the mpgs go...you’re reducing a lot of air flow (drag) that gets all tumbly and rough under the truck

Today I installed a Husky 09411 black gearbox, seems well made install was super easy.
I know this is old but how do you flip the floor mat up to open the ram bin? That’s what’s been stopping me from getting one of these. I usually have to undo the pin in the floor mat and it looks like the husky box is totally covering it.

I keep seeing the recommendation for the Hellwig sway bar. I feel the truck handles fine as is, but now I am very curious as to the difference this will make.
I thought the exact same thing. My truck rides great, how could this possibly make that big of a difference? But lemme tell you the very first time I drove with the Hellwig sway bar I was sold! To date it was probably one of the best mods I’ve done! Only annoying thing is the rubber bushings start making kinda squish/squeak sounds after a while. WD-40 helps but doesn’t solve it. It’s not a big issue though compared to how much better it handles.

I only hear it over harsh speed bumps & typically only with the windows down so it’s not much of a bother. You don’t hear it at all while driving over road imperfections.

"bed seal for the side gap on tailgate"...what do you mean by this?
When the tailgate and bedcover are closed there is a small gap on either side that water runs down into the back end of the bed. Someone on a prior page had posted that they had ordered a rubber bedseal off Amazon, so I grabbed some a few weeks back and got to finally throw it on today.

Got her cleaned, put the bed seal for the side gap on tailgate and luxe sideview mirror blinker tint!

How did the blinker tint install go? Luxe just sent me another kit to try the install again, just haven’t had time.
