A 4x2 truck is almost worse than a car or suv that is rear wheel drive. No weight back there over the drive axle. You’re exactly right. These days you’d definitely be looking at the 30s. Bad thing about Texas is the severe ice storms we get periodically. I can go anywhere today, in any of my...

I don’t regret not getting 4x4 because I do actually have 4x4 and am from Texas. Most people here that have trucks are 4x4. I’ve personally never purchased a 2x4 truck. Same here... Most 2x4 trucks are stripped work vehicles that don’t get driven in this type weather. Sent from my iPhone...

That’s a good sign. Means everything is working as it should! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Sounds great. Did you use a kit or just make something up yourself? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

If there was anything they could show simply switching to another OEM caused an issue with, maybe. I don’t think there’s any scenario that comes to mind on what could cause an issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

No I do have the preload spacer and UCAs. No top hat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’ve been real interested to see someone who has put those reservoir shocks on theirs. I’m thinking of doing those. I think those are 5160s Now that I’ve settled the front from jumping around on the back roads where I live, I need to do same to the rear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes. RL minus the very top spacers 5100s on max height. I have about 1/2” of rake. Exactly what I was looking for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Here is the pet number for the fronts... https://www.summitracing.com/parts/BSN-24-232203 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Exactly. Unless they’re talking about the increased pre-load it puts on the spring making the ride stiffer? That wouldn’t actually be anything to do with the shock though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

It wouldn’t change any behavior about the shock at all. It just moves the perch a little bit. So I think regardless of using 0-7 the ride is going to be almost identical. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Plus 1” or whatever the spacer on top of the spring adds. It’s right at 3.5” total. Maybe a little under. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

On setting 7 with the SST puck on top of the spring still in place as well. The shop took out the spacer that went on top of the coil and let the shocks do the lifting for that part. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I think you’ve got to give them a chance or two to fix the issue before they have to buy it back. That really sucks to hear though! Sounds like you’ve got a Monday or Friday truck there for sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’ve had a lot of terra grapplers. Good looking, long tread life, tough tire. Normally I’d have bought those. Went a little more aggressive looking with the 35s and got some Ridge Grapplers this time around. I’ve only got about 5k on them. So far, I’m happy. But I usually find the true test of a...

I’ve got about 200 miles with the 5100s. Mine ride smooth. It feels like a truck still. But that’s to be expected. I’ve drove them off road, dirt road, and highway. All good. I’d be looking at tires too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Oh yea without a doubt. I wouldn’t accept the deferred payments even if offered. It’ll be a 3month old truck that will still have a full term loan on. 84 months of payments doesn’t seem very financially smart to me even unless you drive under 10k miles a year. Sent from my iPhone using...

I think there’s also deferred payments for 90 days or so too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I live in a non emission county of Texas. They only do safety inspections there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Exactly... The rule I go by is if I’m going to buy a diesel truck am I okay with having to do a delete and tune. The emissions equipment fell off my 2016 Cummins. Excellent truck after that. Voided the powertrain warranty in the process. But, I never had a turbo issues and didn’t have to...
