Drwojo Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 (edited) I'm not sure how many of you guys are into this sorta thing but my brother got some nice pics of his truck snowmudding. It's a 04 cummins turbo diesel. 12in suspension lift. I think there is also a 3in body lift. The stacks in the back are 7in a piece. Wheels are 20 with 40in tires. He has those ridiculous train horns. I can't exactly remember the engine mods. I know there are bigger fuel pumps and it has a chip but the trans can't hold the power. He is suppose to be getting a reinforced one within the spring. Either way its quick, lifted, and pretty clean(when it's not muddy). http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t168/food28/17169_1236746685520_1434830188_3066.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t168/food28/17169_1236746605518_1434830188_3066.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t168/food28/17169_1236746445514_1434830188_3066.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t168/food28/17169_1236746485515_1434830188_3066.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t168/food28/17169_1236746285510_1434830188_3066.jpg One of the other guys trucks. A little too much camber.http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t168/food28/17169_1236746245509_1434830188_3066.jpg Here's one in the springhttp://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t168/food28/17169_1227150365618_1434830188_3064.jpg Edited January 23, 2010 by Drwojo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Dont Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 I want to buy a truck sometime this summer and I really like the Dodge Ram Diesel. How is the gas mileage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drwojo Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 With the lift and wheel/tire combo doing 65 back from silver lake sand dunes we managed around 20. I am not sure about DD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komeuppance Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Most of those guys around here drive like jackasses... with their attitude and their damn bright lights annoying people. But... they're cool without the attitude of the owners. -Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEPORE Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 truck is sweet! i wonder what my Durango would look like with 10" of lift...LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Sorry, but the stacks make it hill billy style. And the other dude's truck doesn't have too much camber at all. Looks fine to me. Toe on the other hand... looks a little off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eck_007 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 whats wrong with a lil hillbilly styln ?????? i like it. my kinda ride! anyway, ya gotta love a lifted diesel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-O Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Stacks Save Lives! Looks well-done, I think. I love Dodge trucks. I plan to have my Dana 30 SAS, 31-spline Trac-lok 8.8 rear axle, and 3.73 gears done on my '92 Ranger in the next couple months. It's already got a 2" spring/block lift, and I don't care to go any higher. Largest tire I'll run is a 33". Anything else is too excessive for such a small truck, especially with the original 4.0. Hopefully I can get some 4.88 or 5.23 gears and at least a front locker for it come summer. 4-low is still too tall with 31"s, granted it's got 3.55 gears right now.

Tim_C. Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Not as many of those on the western slope of Colorado. They build true rock crawlers around here. For normal 4 wheeling, you don't want all that lift either. There really isn't a practical reason for it. The Camo Chevy is nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strang3majik Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 you want to see 4WD trucks? Come to Florida...makes no sense to me either, but, the rednecks love them. The most we even have here is mudding...but, your truck doesn't need to have a 14" suspension lift and 4" body lift to make it through the mud...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks fine to me. Toe on the other hand... looks a little off. Sorry. My bad. I meant toe. He use to have a 03 z71 with a 6" suspension and 2" body. Kept breaking so he built this. I try to hang with my 4.0 ranger thats missing 2nd gear and the 4x4 won't engage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC_99 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 I lifted my 08 Tacoma over the holidays. Just a small 3 inch lift, nothing to crazy,but I like it. I need to get some updated pics of it. BC_99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bnoland Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 NIce.. I have a jeep I am building for rock crawling. 1996 XJ with 6.5 inch lift and 35s. I have a ways to go but its a good start. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4053/4226307588_7cfa57d62c_b.jpg With the flares removed.. I like them but they rub.
