Juanitobunito build and bs

Very nice truck! The 6112’s are what I meant to write in my last post. I did the cmc honestly because my guy was doing suspension work to my truck and was in there so I just told him to do it. I absolutely did not rub. The only issue I ever had rubbing was ever so slightly on the front inside fender wells. On the black plastic. That was a easy fix and it looks due to your bumper that you won’t have that issue. Those fn wheels have no negative offset unfortunately. The look very similar to my last set I had, the advans.

 

I know what you mean. I have the 2.55 pulley still wrapped up in the storage but with my 2.7 I have no issues what so ever. So never felt changing it out lol.

 

The other issue I didn’t care for was needing to cut ribs off a belt to have the proper size or keep the pulley mod on to keep the stock size belt. The pulley mod was looking old and looked like it was a matter of time before I’d have issues with it. I don’t need that just for a slightly smaller pulley and minimal boost gain. If you do the 2.55, I hope your looking into a meth setup….

 

I had a couple more questions about your truck if you don't mind:
How much lift did you get with those ICON leaf packs as option 1 without that additional leaf swapped out? And how do you like the ride of them?
How much caster are you getting with your UCA's?
There's one other, but I can think of it right now LOL

 

Never a problem when you have questions… The RXT pack is real nice. Initially I had it at option 1, which had it at 1.5” of lift. It rode very nice and not stiff at all. I switched it to option 2 when I went a tad higher in the front. That took me to about 2” in the back. The ride remained very comfy and not too stiff at all.
The boxed dirt kings are nice and are overkill for me. I couldn’t tell you off the top of my head actual numbers but I know I have sheet from my last alignment. I know they give me plenty of adjustability. I bought them thinking the icon delta joints would fit and I could ditch the uniballs……they didn’t fit. I threw them on anyway for the time being.

 

Awesome. Thanks for the info. My truck has a 3 leaf AAL on it now with the overload leaf. I also added a fiberglass shell to it recently as well. I noticed when I was under it that it still has the pre-TSB leaf pack on it...that seemed a little sketchy to me. So I am debating on getting a set of slightly used 3rd gen leafs and adding the AAL to them or just ditching all that and getting the RXT pack.
I am also ordering some new UCA's this week. Probably go with the JBA's. I'm hoping to get some tires ordered in the next couple weeks as well.
Thanks again for the helpful info.

 

I had a icon progressive leaf pack on for some time before I switched it to the RXT’s. I was fine but I didn’t have anything in the bed. Your plan may work but I’d honestly just go straight for the RXT pack. I believe I still have my icon tubular UCA’s with the delta joints in my shed. I had those on before the dirt kings. They still have plenty of life in them or you can start fresh with new deltas. $150 and they are yours…just a thought.

 

Yeah I'll definitely take you up on that! Do they need new bushings as well or just new deltas?

 

How many miles did you put on them before swapping them out?

 

They really don’t need anything. I just mentioned the deltas as a reassurance of just putting in new ones. I put on 10k miles or so…..maybe 12. I don’t put many miles on my truck and definitely do not beat on it. I’ll dig them out of my shed later and clean them up. I’ll snap a couple pics for you.

 

Sounds good man! I really appreciate it.

 

No problem at all

 

@boostedka that’s a deal of the century!!

Juan takes great care of his stuff. I’d imagine it looking nearly impeccable without seeing any pics

 

They look much nicer once I cleaned all the old fluid film off, something you never have to worry about you lucky ass

 

Watdyamean?? I drive through salt…on the beach lol

 

I remembered my other question I had for you:
What, if anything, did you need to do to adjust your Speedo when you regeared your truck?

 

I didn’t do it. I’m sure it is a tad off but I couldn’t tell you by how much. I believe it’s electronic, I’m sure it can be done with hptuners.

 

Awesome! Thanks for the quick response

 

Back to the afe pro dry s intake. Retune with hp to come shortly.
