South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I've thought about it...

 

Billie 5100s are valved for the STOCK spring rate, stock truck, with the spring being somewhat preloaded at the different settings. Once you add heavier springs and preload them the shock isn't set up for it so ride quality can suffer. If you are looking for a cushier closer to stock ride like what's been mentioned before go with a CO.

That being said even the most expensive CO set up can ride like shit if you get the valving, spring rate, and preload wrong. Best course of action would be calling a company like Accutune, Filthy Motorsports, Down South Motorsports, etc., talk with them explain your set up, what you are wanting out of the truck, etc. and they'll get a really damn close initial tune and can advise you on a good spring rate, length of spring, and the aprox. preload (sometimes). This will by far get your best ride and quality out there.

 

Thanks! Yeah she’s an awesome truck and like my others. I know I’ll probably regret it later haha. But it’s all good

 

Thanks! Man the shell is sooooo nice! It’s been awesome for the pup to ride in, haul camp gear in, keep my fire gear dry...etc. I will have another on the next vehicle for sure. I’ll let you know if I decide to sell anything separately

 

It's just REALLY hard for me to justify the price. Plus I'm trying (and failing) to not go down the rabbit hole. Of course when I went with my current setup, I was never planning on adding a bumper or winch.
But I'll look into what you're talking about you get an idea.

 

Sounds good I appreciate it.

I used to live in Greenville, and always looking for an excuse to get back up that way. The wife and I usually make it up to Table Rock a few times a year to camp.

 

If you end up parting out I'd love a chance at the ditch lights and brackets and hi lift

 

3rd gen and 2nd gen ditch light brackets are different.

 

You just love to burst my bubble.. lol well fine.. im still interested in the lights and switches

 

Sounds good man!

 

Switches will only work in the lower dash panel by the shifter. 3rd gen uses the smaller switches

 

Well that's the only panel I have left is the one near shifter

 

Perfect!!!

 

I thought about getting a switch panel so I could add more to it

 

and/or ?

I support this kind of modding!

 

These things definitely have some get up and go! Tow\haul and no nannies =

 

@Bubbles
I got tied up with something, and I didn't make it by Clemson 4x4 yesterday (sorry!). But, those wheels are still available according to Facebook. I get off at 4 today and will go by there. Which set were you wanting? They have 2 listed..

 

A tuner and 4” catback Banks exhaust REALLY wakes up the 5.7. I loved my Crewmax on 35’s. I never would have sold it if I wasn’t commuting 110 miles to work. 13-14mpg was hurting the bank accounts

 

Which are the best bed rail mounts for 48” hi-lift jack?
