Actually I am at work but thanks for asking! Carrico said he didn't want drama in his thread so if you feel the need to continue this please move it to my build thread I'd love to continue with you!

Sounds like your ripping your employer off or if your self employed ripping yourself off.

So much for not starting drama in Carrico's thread...


So Carrico, you're saying that a big lift and heavy tires/etc negatively affects performance? Shocking! lol, any plans for a power adder or anything?

Ha! sarcasm i figured someone would catch me on that. it really affected the performance way more than i imagined, but its not horrible where i wouldnt drive it. it still smokes the tires and does good take offs from a stop just slower. power adders for the v6 no. I thought about a cam and wynjammer for the 4.3 but no, whenever the engine fails i will swap to a 5.3 or a 5.7. But this will suffice for now.

I will have videos as soon as i can guys.

And chesty i get on my computer at work too, i dont always post. I just do it when there is no one in my office. not losing my money or my workers.

rex, thanks for the compliments. I am finishing up rocksliders later today and adding some more support to the bumper, shocks are here tomorrow and maybe transfercase in the next coming weeks.

Again, this is a tech thread, any questions just ask, polite criticism/concerns/compliments etc. I try to update this with what ive used/done/failed <-- been a lot of failed stuff

thanks.

I've heard of people using airsoft BBs in big tires to help balance them and eliminate the death wobble. I haven't tried it with my 37s yet but once I get back from the desert and get wider rims, I'm gonna see how it works.

And I'm always online on my laptop at work. Uncle Sam doesn't pay me enough. lol
