    FOR SALE

    Wow. That is why the average Auction pricing on nice, clean and well preserved trucks like ours is 40K over the last 8 years. There are plenty of rusty, dirty, abused, grime infested engine compartment and rebuilt examples out there for people to buy for daily drivers. That is probably the...

    Air Intake {2005}

    Yeah.... you will roll with it until you encounter a similarly prepped truck with the Stock airbox intake & drop in K&N. Right then you will realize that the noise and looks from the aftermarket CAI did not improve power as you watch the truck gradually pull away from you because your engine is...

    Another tire thread

    Yeah.... FRESH stock Pirelli's are the way to go. (make sure manufacture date is within a year) The only tire with more grip and lighter was the BFG KDW's (Gone) The Zero Asimmetrico is the grippiest, lightest, highest speed and load rated tire available for our trucks. Make sure they...

    FOR SALE

    Yes, yes, "I'm an A$$HOLE". :rock: ESPECIALLY when it comes to members who are on here to buy cheap, abused and poorly maintained examples of these trucks, dump in a few components to regain drivability, give em' a bath and then turn em' for a small profit. Members, do not sell your truck...

    FOR SALE

    Let's keep in mind the OP's opening statement... "I don't want to come off like a jerk but please spare me from any low-ball offers" Now that's rich is it not? :D

    ANY QC's FOR SALE?

    spydertt; Do you hear the crickets chirping?!? In some opinions, your simply asking too much for a "13 year old" truck with simply "too many miles". Regardless of condition, quality or increasing rareness of a specialty truck. Looks like another round of "Turn and Burn" to potentially...

    How many of you miss gears when shifting?

    As stated above, re-aligning your shifter base is always a great place to start. While your in there, it cannot hurt to install the brass isolator cup bushing from Tick Performance or JTSVP. This will take any additional play out of your shift gates. Your stock nylon bushing is most likely...

    Emissions Drive Cycles Here is some information I've gathered re; OBDII Drive cycles.... Step One: Double Check Vehicle Preparation •Have the fuel tank between 30 and 70 percent full. Some systems, especially the EVAP system, need to have a specific level of fuel in order for the...

    2â€￾ drop shackles

    Now ask how that truck handles over road irregularities that require suspension travel... Especially at speed. A super smooth road course is the only place where that is not as big of a consideration. A lowering kit would need to provide a MINIMUM of 3" bump and 4" of droop travel front and...

    2â€￾ drop shackles

    Drop Shackles do not work on an RC. Also the rear eye shackle angle needs to remain correct for proper spring rate and travel. Good point of reference here... Leaf Spring Tech: Shackle Length & Shackle Angle A big improvement in traction and limiting wheel hop can be obtained by installing...

    Floaty Suspension

    The secret is... the faster your drive the truck, the more compliant the suspension becomes. :burnout:

    Floaty Suspension

    Lowered trucks have bad bump steer due to geometry and lack of suspension travel. My non-lowered RC with poly bushings (including the rear leaf eyes) is very solid and planted. Properly warm the Scorpion Zero's, keep the recommended 38 psi in them and the truck will handle great. The stock...
