As for performance. When i bought this truck it was bone stock..
since i have bought it, I have installed.
hx35
100hp injectors
street performance injection pump
full 4 inch exhaust
bd exhaust housing
pump tuned up a bit.

Got it tuned to the point when you stomp on it, it dosent smoke out the whole town. Im looking for power not smoke.

Hey guys. So when i set up the shackle flip in the back i had them a little to far forward on the frame. so with a load on the trailer the shackles flatten out witch is no good. Moved them back 1.5 inches back and it works awesome now! had the trailer with a car on it and dident even squat a inch. also have a big set of leafs in the back. Also now i have gone from a 6 inch rear block to a 2.5 inch block and thinking of getting rid of that to.

here is before...

i dont have a after pic yet.

Looking good. Where did you end up finding the cab?

loaded up and headed to alberta, 1300 k drive threw the rockeys.
Truck made it fine, other then as soon as we got to alberta the water pump decided to start leaking. Also as we were driving threw kamloops the hitch almost broke off :/ must have come loose and 2 of the 6 bolts broke...
