Magnetic Gray Thread!!!

I'm not a huge fan of chrome either. I'm fine with the silver finish of the factory wheels or like I said above-Anthracite

 

Well the wifey let me get my birthday gift a few days early this year, so I got my new wheels and tires today, must say I am 100% satisfied with how they turned out. I'll be making a build page someday, but here a few pictures I took before the sun went down just as a preview, i'll post some better ones once I get a chance.

 

mines gonna be just like that hopefully next week just the ambush wheels inssteadd.. sweet truck man what did you regear it to
?

 

Hello to a fellow Rochester guy!

 

sick bro, what set up suspension do u have???

 

Its a 3" Toytech ultimate kit with an add a leaf in the rear Total Chaos UCAs up front. Just got the tires they are 285/75/16 BFG ATs, wheels are 16x8 +6 offset Eagle Alloys 137 series. Just did a satoshi grill up front and have several electrical mods inside

 

Traded in my ole '99 and I've had this one just 2 weeks.

All I've done is mounted 16x8 Chambers and 265/75/16s.

Perhaps more mods when I get some $$$.

Lovin it!

 

i traded in my 99 for my 09 as well

 

Looks nice!!!

 

Well the 1st gens didn't some in this color but since I spend so much money on the truck it might as well be in the color I want it to be. I will be painting my '04 from that impulse red (maroon) to a steelish color (similar to this) It needs to be done by the 1st week in sept so I'll post pics when I finish it.
Also not sure what to do with the satoshi. Any pics of a magnetic gray that does not have a chrome grill but does have the satoshi mod. Thanks

 

First off welcome to TW! I regeared with 4.88's, and love it!!!

 

did you guys regear when you put a lift on? i put a 3" lift on mine with the 285 and feel like it slowed down a lot and i am getting pretty bad gas mileage now any suggestions?

 

I did do the gears when I did the lift. I decided that I did not want to see how much power I lost and then take the truck back and have the shop do it after the fact.

 

yeah i feel like i lost a lot of power and thought about re-gearing, would headers get the power back or not so much?

 

I did not think that the power loss was that noticeable with the 3"? There are guys all over here saying they have a 6" with 35's and no new gears and are fine? I don't think that headers will give that much back. I mean I guess you could always just regear, but for our truck you should be fine.

 

no it still has the power its just not as fast i guess, i mean i shouldnt really want it to go fast but its always nice to have, i just like power and was wondering what headers would do for me thats all haha

 

It will give some, just like an intake or exhaust. Just get the S/C and all will be forgotten!

 

lol yeah trust me ive thought about that but that might be a little too much, i put the flowmaster 40 series on it and i also have an airaid intake

 

thought i'd share a couple of pics of my new pride and joy......couldn't be happier!
