Northern Virginia Roll Call

Welcome, that's a good looking pro you've got.

Just hold onto your wallet because these trucks love to be modded out.

 

It depends on your tech. I went from 265 to 270's and he said they could not do it becaue they wouldn't fit. I showed him a few posts from here and he agreed to try. While taller, there was no difference in the space to the UCA so he installed them with full warranty. (Unless you blow you side wall out while deflated off roading...) The replacement tires went on without question because they were already on. First set was pre-lift.

*Edit: Zero dark thirty grammer and spelling mitsakes.

 

I bought them there. They are member only unless you use the pharmacy.

 

Good morning everyone, I totally get why @Superman910 would have such big gaps between posts!
Holy crap the baby has not been sleeping much. If im not at work or trying to get the baby to sleep, im sleeping.
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving!

 

My boys got raised with a cd that audio ripped from the Gas station around the Nurnburgring; so while most kids fall asleep to children music mine had been falling asleep to engines roaring, tires squeeling and other general automotive mischief sounds. Your mileage and luck might vary...

Here is the original video:

The St Max looks pretty aggressive compared to a KO2. I find it hard to believe it's not noisy on the highway. Your thoughts? Again, I'm looking to move up from OEM 16s to a more aggressive tire, but still doing 90+ % highway/road driving. I'll buy a second set if I have too! lol Also, is there any big gas mileage difference?

 

I have a set of used 295/75/16 KO2's that you could try out, they still have 5/32" of tread all around...

 

Anyone aware of a local (to Herndon area) shop that will tune up my Poulan chainsaw? Seems as though all the shops around here will only work on Echo and Stihl. TY in advance.

 

Haha!

Look on their website. There's two in Manassas and one in Purcellville.

 

I missed the majority of this discussion, but I have a set of Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my truck. They're great on-road. Not very noisy at all and drives smoothly. I don't use them off-road, but another member here says they're good off-road. He made it up to Flagpole on them without a hitch.

 

Oh, you can definitely hear them. As I said in my previous post, my ST Maxx are not any louder than the KO2s that I had...at least that's how my ears hear it. Doesn't bother me, and I will be getting another set of the Maxx once these wear down. My driving is mostly highway/road as well. I think I saw about a 1-2 mpg drop with them, but my Ray10s are lighter than the stock wheels, so it was probably less drastic than if you were to put them on the stock wheels.

 

pending weather conditions tomorrow.. I think ill be removing my CB radio setup/listing it for sale. Pics to come

It is a

$66 Uniden PRO520xl Pro Series 40-Channel CB Radio. Compact Design. ANL Switch and PA/CB Switch. 7 Watts of Audio Output and Instant Emergency Channel 9. - Black

Uniden PRO520xl, 5ft Firestik (tuned by @Truggin), wire, and mounting point for driver side tailgate.

 

Remember, it depends on the size and sidewall rating too. I am also on my 2nd set of ST Maxx. I think I have 35k on them, and they look new still. But I run E rated, and I get ~220 miles to a tank. There are alot of other factors that go into mpg. **Also, I didnt buy a truck to get good gas mileage**

 

Welcome! Nice truck.

 

Haha!

Pretty cool for an RC car.

 

Got a package yesterday from a damn good guy ( @BTHawk ). Thanks Man!



I will return the favor soon.

 

My friends! Just moved to Fredericksburg this past spring.

If anyone can recommend a shop in the Greater NoVA, would really appreciate it. Looking to get lockers installed.

Thanks in advance

 

Send your diffs to ECGS. Super easy

 

Haha, glad you got it and enjoy!
