Ok, now the big question, where to buy from? I have been looking and talking to places. Seems like I will be down and arm and a leg after this.
What is a reasonable price to pay for tires that will last? I am also considering trying to find some already mounted on wheels then just selling my...
I am starting to look at replacing my tires since they are about 12 years old. Currently has 1400r20 Michelin XZLs on it (M923A2). I have searched and researched, but still not sure what to do and quite a bit of the information I have found is a bit dated. My driving mostly consists of country...
Been slow going lately with the weather, but have made some progress. Got a new light bar for Christmas and got it wired into one of my switches previously installed. It is quite bright, 42k lux measured at 12 inches.
I have some more LEDs on the way and already have the wiring in place for...
Tested out the gauges and they work great. I'm only seeing about 23 to 24psi max, and touching juts over 1000 degrees on a full throttle acceleration to about 45mph. Seems like lower boost pressure then I have seen others running. I have a GSK to install and was thinking of turning up the fuel a...

Got my gauges installed from TMG. Have not tested them yet while truck is running. The three switches go to the previously installed relays in the battery compartment. They will toggle some LED lights I have planned to install at some point.
I did fully test out my seat heaters and they work...
Got a few more things done on the truck. Installed heated seats. Put the switches in my center console and put a 24v to 12v converter on the lower shelf. The kit was from Amazon and it was just the elements that you have to put under the seat fabric. Not too hard to install but holy crap these...
Figured I would start a thread for the mods I am doing to my truck. Doing basic stuff so far to fix a few things and get it aligned with my style.
Here is a photo of it being delivered plus my first time sitting in it.
Finally home. Tested out the cargo cover.
First thing I did was fix...
Looks like it is a 6CTA from the engine tag. I did hear a rumor that the power was turned up from this number due to the extra weight of the ROPS cab. Not sure how true that is.
