Man that thing is a beast! What setup you runnin lift&tires?

375/65r16s
16x10s
1.25” front spacers
2” rear spacers

You helped me decide to go that way, we talked about your setup and the whole tire poke thing, running 15 wides on 9” runs. I still want the old school 18x12s w/ 33x15.50s. Closest I’ve found is custom 16x16 wheels and swamped 35/16r16s

Crap i have to do my oil cooler lines now. They are definitely weeping and seem to be leaking @ the connection to the block. Any tips?


I've been noticing a a leak so I bypassed the rad for the transmission lines (got rid of the leaking fittings and crimps) and found out my oil cooler lines and transmission pan gasket are also leaking. Not very happy.

*Well shit. Not a fan of the bypass. Temps are higher even with ambients in the 65* range it just takes much longer to get it up to temp. * My trans cooler is much bigger and thicker than stock too...

I know the pt.net guys run big stalls with a trukool 40k so i figured id be ok. Damnit. Ill have to undelete the rad soon.


Edit: might be ok actually. Turned out it was leaking once it got up to temp bc i had a clamp that was not tight enough.

Nice, I’ll have to look them up.

First pic, that blue looks amazing!

That’s how it looks in the sun, I need to get more pics like that.

That is a lot of tire! What tie rods/steering setup you running?

I’ve got the Cognito idler pivot assembly upgrade, Cognito heim joint tie-rods, RedHead HD Steering box, and I put new AC Delco pitman and idler arms on when we did the lift.

I don’t have a good photo of the idler assembly and center or the gear box, O have to grab some tomorrow and put them in my build thread, here you can see tie-rods.
