    :thumbsup: Glad I can help! Just slow down, start setting money aside (when doing mods little unforeseen things always come and can put you over budget) and set priorities. I have learned that you should really do suspension before you even start to buy wheels or tires. Wheels and tires are expensive even if you get cheap shit. You don't want to buy those cool wheels and tires just to find out they don't do what you want or fit right. You can get by with less than ideal tires for a while when you sort out the other more important and hopefully more permanent and important stuff.

    Stay on here, start searching around in people's builds and check out different sections and threads like the mid travel BS thread and ask away in there. You can ask 10000 questions and as long as you are open ears and dont blatantly just defy people and tell them they are wrong just about everyone here is more than willing to answer questions and point you in the right direction. And if they tell you to "search and do research", tell them to fuck off and that this is your research, asking the experienced people first hand for a point in the right direction.

    This is what I'm talking about! You could have looked back a page and saw that I was the one who said that... and you want me to not be an ass... I give up. Good luck with your build man.

    :rolleyes: There is a difference between searching and using the search bar. People will flame of you for not typing your question in the search bar or google, but a lot of the time the hits are not very precise or don't answer the question sufficiently enough. You will need to do some looking around and researching on your own because people her cannot type up a book and give you all of the information you need. In reality most things have been discussed before at least a couple of times, the challenging part is finding it or knowing where to start in the first place, that's more what the answers to your questions should be in my opinion.

    We cannot spoon feed you all of the information you need to decide on what you want on your truck, however we are GREAT at giving advice and feed back when you ask about some options you have selected and what we think about them. For example, its tedious to type up every suspension upgrade part and the pros and cons to each ect, but if after some looking around you decided on a type coil over and a few different designs from a few different companies and ask the populous what they think of your choices i bet you will get some good feed back that help you make the decision and you will also get some links or suggestions on some alternatives or something of that nature.


    dude, relax. he is doing very well and is just making a comment. no need to get angry or worked up at the guy.

    +1 on what you said. That's good advice. And your right, no need to get worked up, but after reading the other 3 posts tonight and then saw this, then add all the sarcasm and unnecessary responses and choice of words, its just frustrating. Wanna help the guy but seriously now... are these even serious posts??

    Hahaha for your sake I hope so too. I'm generally not an ass to anyone on here, but this just got a little carried away IMO. I sense a bit of trolling going on tonight, but it could just be major noob stuff too

    We are not mad. Just giving you a hard time. I'm sure after spending a few weeks on Here you will get bashed quite a bit and quickly learn the norm of forum posting. Hang in there. Take peoples advice and do your best. You'll get it
