3rd Gen Magnetic Gray Thread

Here’s my MGM at her Fav Place lol

 

265s look and feel just fine on my ome kit 888 with Dakar’s ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

How's the ride with the RC installed. Thinking on doing the same, at least temporarily.

 

Installed vinyl overlays on the OR wheels until I save for new ones.

 

It's really close to stock. I don't notice much change at all. Other than the fact that you're riding higher. Gives the truck a real nice look for sure. I'm not saying I won't eventually switch to the 5100s/OME springs/and AAL, but for now, it does what I wanted. Like I said, I got $110 in it and put it on myself in about 3 hours.

 

Wrap those wheels with a black vinyl kit.

 

Spotted an MGM on the highway....
realized it was my truck.

 

That’s my MGM’s favorite place too... she’s a real fatass. What kind of fogs are those

 

Bad ass looking rig.

 

Freshly washed and waxed the mall crawler today.

 

What tire size you running??

 

Anyone want MGM fender flares? I’m looking for black (Off Road or Sport). I’ll pay shipping!

 

I’m waiting for the Sport kit and I’m doing this to mine

 

Can I see a nice side shot of your truck please? I am debating on ordering a shell, but I'm also in this dilemma that I'm thinking I want the long bed. I like the way the short bed looks, but DAMN it's little! I came from a full size truck and this is just too small. I have a St Louis dealer that will trade me basically even for a '17 used long bed and I'm thinking I might pull the trigger. And do you have any lift? LOVE those tires on that truck! Wheel spacers or no?

 

Well, that experiment didn't take long. I told y'all I had put on the Rough Country 2" leveling spacer on the front and the 1.5" block in the rear. I drove it down the road a couple miles the night I installed it and didn't notice anything really. The past couple days I've put a 100 or so miles on it and it has a weird 'buzzing type vibration' that pulses in the steering wheel about every 3 seconds. I have NOT had it aligned but in the back of my mind the night I ordered that spacer lift and block I wished I'd have went ahead and ordered the 5100s. SO I ordered the 5100 set up today. I just got done removing the 1.5" block from the rear and as soon as my other shocks come in, I will remove the spacer from the front. (the back end was like a 30minute job to remove so I went ahead and did it). I did drive it down the highway 3 or 4 miles tonight after the block was removed and the buzz/vibration is still there but not as evident. Any thoughts on why the spacer and/or block caused that? it was NOT there before I installed the lift. Again, I didn't get it aligned yet but I can't think that would cause it. Anyone???

 

I just posted my thoughts on my lift after driving it for a 100 miles or so. My advice? Don't waste your time or money on it! I ordered the 5100 setup today.... (read my post)

 

And by the way.... The folks at HEADSTRONG are just amazing. They are really helpful for steering you in the right direction for the lift/results you are looking for. Wish I had consulted them first. I strongly recommend them!

 

Probably your needle bearing. Very common issue after lift.

Look into replacing with the ECGS bushing

 

Is it something that say, if I take the lift off altogether, will I still feel it? Or is it forever screwed up now since I lifted it? And do you have a link or info on that part?? Thanks for the info...
