He was a member on here that contributed so much, was always friendly and willing to help. I have had several conversations with him and he will definitely be missed. I have saved locations of several spots he recommended that I check out, next time I am up north I plan on doing that. Thank you...

My friend has that exact same truck, 06 mega cab 1500 with the 5.7... he gets terrible mpg, maby 10 ish. We went on a trip awhile back, both pulling ruffle the same load, flat trailer with a couple atv’s. He stopped for gas twice for my one tank.

Your 100% correct, the simpler the better, I have spent many hours tracking down a leak. That sumo spring is a good idead, I’ve never seen one before.

How do you like the contender?

I run air bags on every truck, they definitely help with sway along with any sag you get. I have ran all brands, they are all about the same. My friend runs air lift with their gage and compressor, it’s nice and works great. I got a set of air lift bags on my 3500, I fill each bag with the...

You can run air bags on a rear colic sprung 2500, there are several companies that make kits. On my old 14 2500 I ran a thuren overland kit with rear air bags that sat next to the rear coils.

I’m not going to do another RT tire, I’m after a mud terrain, I guess I’ll have to get some 37x13.50r17 Toyo MT e rated tires. Please tell flaken to make an e rated 37 on a 17 inch rim. I don’t care about the d vs e arguments... I want an e rated tire, I feel they last longer on a heavy truck...

What you don’t run the mud terrains in the winter? If you have an in with falken please beg them to make a 37x12.50r17 in E rated 10 ply.

Wow those basic parts are grossly overpriced.

Just step it up and get a .300 win mag pistol.

I got a paratrooper fn fal, fold the stock in and it’s basically a .308 pistol... you wouldn’t want to shoot it like that, trust me it’s bad.

Read up on those bilstein shocks or watch a cjc off-road video on them, they don’t really offer any improvement. The AEV trac bar is still a weak link, agree or not, that’s a fact. For the money you would pay for an AEV kit with their knuckles you can get real gains elsewhere.

I don’t think the AEV kit alone will improve any ride characteristic, plus they have issues with the steering set up and trac bar, I forgot to mention they still use the inferior stock trac bar. I’m not sold on that kit, sorry. For the carli kit, I run firestone air bags with cradles... I will...

I missed the question you asked, has anyone needed 37’s... yeah I do, and often. I ran 35’s and the greater ground clearance with 37’s keeps me from getting hung up while hunting. When I had 35’s I buried them up to the rims, I got through it but the added clearance and larger sidewall of the...

Great choice on th truck! AEV makes a decent, although high priced spacer kit that really adds nothing more than tire clearance, if that’s what your after go that route. I will mention that I pull 10k plus often with my carli kit. Once you own a truck with a tuned performance suspension it’s...

Yeah I know, and you are right. I’m going to finish zeroing it in on a non windy day them I will double check it without the sled. I’m not goin for perfection just deer killing performance to 100 yards.

Awesome! I can’t wait for Illinois season to star!

I’m gonna shoot it with no wind and see where it’s at then I’m off for deer season! I can’t wait, I’m now a muzzle loader fan.

Finally got around to sighting in my pro hunter fx, I used 250 grain hornady SST with 3 50 grain pyrodex pellets. Today we had a wind advisory of 45 mph winds. I put the pro hunter in the lead sled, set the target at 25 yards, was off to the left and low, cranked the scope over a tad. Next was...

Have you looked at caravan camper shells? They are the absolute best.
