  1. Why a Dana 44? Just go to tons already lol
  2. Message me your number man, I got a new phone and lost yours but im def down to lend a hand when you get around to doing work this summer.
  3. Looks good man, I have the same tires and love them so far...take me through anything I point them at. Mine are 35x12.5 as well
  4. I ran around with a 35x12.5 on my roof for awhile....it does kill gas mileage and makes the truck feel a TON more top heavy. Plus it was never secured agaist theft so it was risky as well
  5. Mb Vortex 16x8 black/machined with 315 75 16 Nitto Trail Grappler MT's (35x12.50)
  6. I cut it off cause I had to cut a trailing arm bolt and the sawzall blade was getting in the way lol
  7. Pretty sure my favorite part was at the 4:30 mark when some random kid asked if it was a rough country lift kit
  8. I used to work at Discount Tire and the Hankooks are decent but not the best. They do alright on light truck and suv's look into the cooper discover series if you want a cheap decent at tire.
  9. I rotated my r&p when I did mine. Just unbolt the brackets and bend the bracket on the drivers side. I dont remember how much I did mine but just do that side. I used washers to fill up the space and it works just fine. Here are some pics
  10. Knock on wood im with town on this, I have never had those issues
  11. Buy a VQ....thats a 70hp gain and 75lbft of tq just stock lol
  12. I work at Discount Tire, im a service coordinator meaning im the guy that runs my team of people 3-4 and 2-3 lifts. Telling people what the cars are and what to with them. I get to pull in and out cars and talk to the customers. The good thing is that I dont have to do as much labor with this job as just a tech does and I get to drive alot of cool cars like one of the new 7spd manual porsches, the new GT500's old muscle cars ferraris lifted trucks and jeeps all sortsa cool stuff. Plus I get discounts on wheels and tires for myslef which saved me around 800 bucks when I got new stuff. Pay is decent, and we get tips sometimes
  13. It depends on the wheel design as well as the backspacing. I know that some have ground a bit off their calipers to fit them but that just does not seem smart. I know that at discount tire if you order the wheels through them they can test fit them before mounting them to see if they fit and if they dont we can return them free of charge.
  14. 01silvapathy....we dont always get snow in texas but when we do....I usually act a fool
  15. Indeed, I have some chicken wire mesh stuff I have been meaning to put in front of my rad but havent had the time to do so yet. Only downside is if you dont have aftermarket lights like I do you loose some light from the fog lights but its almost not noticeable
  16. Mine is OEM ish I ruined the bumper "cover" so I just ripped it off but left the metal "bumper" behind it there...its handy for mounting lights on and if you think about it not much less sturdy over stock. The plastic bumper is flimsy
  17. Thought about it alot...problem is the wiring and a quick way to get the doors on and off. Plus if you take off the doors you loose all your speakers but the tweeters and sub if you have one...so no music (
  18. Some lights I got fo free http://s499.photobucket.com/albums/rr355/01Silvapathy/?action=view&current=newlights.jpg
  19. But the r50's inner workings should be the same as its the same platform and the suspension products for lifts and such apply to all years of the r50 96-04
