I rarely take my truck offroad, but a few weeks ago I need to go through some deep snow and on the way back I figured I would play around and I was doing about 40 and went through a big roller ditch and I guess it stopped my front tires when I hit it and grenaded my drivers side front axle. That was a pricey experience, but I did get to go through the front end of my truck and freshen it up and it hasn't felt this tight since it was new.

oh also Red if you want to try some different rims I highly recommend the KMC XD series wheels, they have proven themselves to be tough as hell and they are great quality. I have never tried the mickey thompson tires but I have heard good things about them, I just can't seem to stray away from the Toyo M/T's!

the thing is these wheels wern't cheep either, i think i'm getting them powder coated a flat or gun metal black here real soon! my only concern is that they are a forged wheel and i don't know if they take take the heat from the process. and if they do with they still be as strong?

Titan owner here. About to reach 100k. Time to change plugs, rear end fluid, belt, brake fluid, and tranny fluid again. My truck isn't that pretty, cause I have kids and dogs. But it hauls my boat and four wheelers like nobodies business. I plan on driving it till the motor finally gives in. Btw my bro and pops have titans also. Great truck.

Big trucks are right up my alley! Kind of miss my diesel monster but the Z more than makes up for it. I love the smell of diesel exhaust in the morning though.

StLRedrider 03-09-2010 06:05 PM

Why do you think I traded it in 2 weeks before the warrenty expried? I had every other 6.0 issue but the head gaskets so I figured it was only a matter of time.

I had a lisence plate frame that my ex had made for it. Said "Pimpin' Ain't Easy" Fit with that truck perfectly.

Not many, a Trutrac rear and maybe PRG's street traction bars. Right now I'm waiting on a local shop to get back with me on an AEM dry filter for my K&N intake, pull my new-ish plugs to make sure they're still new-ish, then I'll have my tuner re-dyno and re-flash the ECU. Gonna be tricky finding funds with the Z screaming for mods and car payments!

I would think that they would still be plenty strong, Possibly ask Mike the powdercoater on his thoughts about it tho. I think those wheels in matte black on your truck would be so good looking, and some smoke recon cab lights :excited:

They are indeed a great truck, my cousin has one as well as three of my friends, mine definitely sees the most heavy work duty and it hasn't skipped a beat. I love this truck.

The 6.0's ran good when they ran but man I have heard so many horror stories about them that I wonder if half of em are true.

That licence frame would for sure work well on that truck haha. :tup:

I have a ton of PRG stuff on my T, greg has been nothing but the best to work with, I have even had three or four, hour or longer phone calls with him just shootin the bull, he is a stand up guy. I have the PRG offroad trac bars and they are excellent! Are you going to do UpRev?
