I am sure that it has been done but lets hear and see some of your modifications that you have done to your tow rig. I'll start. Vehicle: 2006 Dodge Quad Cab, long bed, 4X4, Dually. Exhaust: MBRP Cool Duals, with the kitty removed and the tips extended 12 inches. Intake: AFE Stage II. Computer tuning: Smarty Jr. that I won from THIS forum! Tuner Box: Quadzilla boost fooler. Suspension: Superlift two inch suspension lift. Tires: 315/70/17's seven of them (count them s e v e n) with a two inch spacer between the rear duals to make them fit. Other engine mods: ATS Diesel Arc Flow air intake manifold. I was able to source this from Gbuddenhagen here on THIS forum. Other: I modified a headache rack so that I could use a winch on it mounted on a cradle from Warn. Future mods: I would like to replace the stock turbo with a set from ATS Diesel. I like the Aurora 3000 and 5000 set up. Clutch South Bend OFE or something like it. I can already slip the clutch with just the current mods. Below are a couple of pictures. LT.
That's a good looking truck Rob. I would post but you could just read my sig for all that information. Here is a link to my photo gallery for some pics... https://towrig.com/photos/showgallery.php/cat/500/ppuser/754/sl/4
How do you like the South Bend clutch? Is it okay for daily driving? I am really digging your ride. LT.
All right here goes. I'll start with current mods. 2.5' leveling kit 315/70/17 Bfgs All-Terrain (7) 2' rear wheel spacers Firestine Ride0Rite airbags in rear w/ incab controls AirZenith 1.5 hp Air Compressor w/ dual 6 gallon tanks. 2 sets of G&G air horns mounted under the cab. 25ft air hose reel mounted behind drivers side rear wheels B&W turnover ball Gooseneck hitch Front mounted hitch receiver (for future Multi-Mount winch system Pillar mounted Autometer guages: egts, trans temp, boost Airaid intake ARP Head studs DJs Fuel Intensifier+ Custom SCT by DJs Diesel Performance 4' Down pipe w/ straight pipe to Dual 5' Silverline stacks Zoodad Mod Billet Grill Cross lid toolbox RamMount for laptop comp w/ broadband internet I used to roll on 22.5 alcoas. It rode a bit to rough for my taste and consumed a good amount of fuel
I remember when you were trying to sell the alcoas. I watched what you did on your ride and did the same thing. I was thinking about purchasing 19.5's and using them until, I read about your ride and how you were going to be switching back. My rig is not loaded very often and I did not want my fillings to fall out of my teeth. Beautiful truck. LT.
Thanks man! waytogo I got the OFE clutch (450 hp rated). It is a bit more 'grabby' than stock obviously but it is easily tolerable for daily driving. I would just stay away from the FE (550 hp rated) if you are planning on doing a lot of towing... because it could be difficult to maneuver a trailer at low speeds with that aggressive of a clutch.
My mods are in my signature, if anyone is interested enough to know what they are. I plan to throw in a set of injectors in the next couple weeks, to get me around the four&aquarter mark. Bought a set of Weld Outbacks and had them polished, might get around to buying some tires for them and replacing my Scorpios...well see.
