    HOW TO SAVE GAS?

    lighter rims/tires. Picked up a set of 20” rims for my AT4 with nokian hakkapelikka studded tires. Total weight is 72lbs. 10lbs lighter per wheel compared to my 18” all season tires. 40lbs of rotational mass made one hell of a difference between gas mileage and performance. Truck takes off so...

    winter snow/ice tire

    winter snow/ice tire

    Have the happ 7 studded tires on my at4. I bought them used and almost done so the get up and go and braking can be lacking but holy **** the turning and lateral grip is amazing. I was able to rip down a gravel road covered in ice at 95kmh without a sweat. Taking tight turns is a breeze with...

    Rebel tires for winter

    I have the duratracs on my AT4 and they are pretty good. My first set of AT tires so cant compare them to anything. Normally i run dedicated winter tires but figured ill use these as my winters and ****ty continental all seasons for the summer. The duratracs do really well clawing through deep snow.

    remove spare tire to increase payload

    think you are misunderstanding what he is asking. If your payload limit is 1400lbs and you take 75lbs of weight out of your truck, your truck now weighs less, meaning you can add 1475lbs of weight and still be at the 1400 limit. He isnt asking if he takes 75lbs out will the limit be 75lbs over...

    Is removing the active air dam & active grille shutters worth it???

    on the other side of that, if you live in cold climate, you can have issues with water temps being to low If you remove them. In the case of my wifes equinox, it went into limp mode and lost all power because we drove from Edmonton to Las Vegas back to Edmonton in march. Because of us going from...

    AC is Cold, rear window/brake light doesn't leak, and I get great fuel mileage on my 4x4 3.92 E Torque 5.7L

    Why? I had my ram for 3 months and it was in 5 different times (no a/c from the day i bought it, loud metallic clunk, truck not detecting fob so it had to be towed in, rough idle/stalling and a bunch of recalls). 5 months after trading it in i got a call that the part for the a/c was in. Thank...
