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

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.

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

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.

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 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?

The 6.0 was a great engine when it wanted to work the way it was ment to. Its just that more often then not it didn't want to work. Trust me all the horror stories are true. I know a guy whos had his turbo replaced 3 times in 60,000 miles, a ton of other guys who had the same issues as me. Go to google and type in '6.0 p...' before you finish powerstroke it comes up with '6.0 powerstroke problems'. THeres a guy who works at the pizzia place I go to, he had a 6.0 and before I traded in mine was telling me about all the problems he had, and that he traded in on a Nissan Cube I was like

Did it last year at a local tuning shop that sells Osiris, the owner/tuner is a PRG-caliber guy and his mechanics are pretty good, I'd let them wrench my T if I needed something done that I couldn't do. Anyhoo, he told me that he'll retune the ECU if I ever need to because of additional mods.
