At 60 in the front and 40 in the back I will be like 1/4 off the ground, so highway driving i do 80psi in the front and 60psi in the back and in country road driving i do 100psi in the front and 70 or 80 in the back. Im sure yours will be less since you dont have the heavy ass bed like I do lol.

man i cruised up at about 70mph the whole way until i hit that philly strip then it was like 45/50 (plus i think my speedo is 5mph slow for some reason). im swapping out my firstone2500s for some re6s and then putting shocks on the front.

yea its pretty much a daily i just dont drive it to work anymore. i always cruise with the windows atleast cracked, if not then they are all the way down and my windows dont really fog up at all

Just saw the video on the last page of the dump valves on the bed slowed down. WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY fukking better. Now that shit is awesome. Looked kind of cheesy hitting hard before.

[xtucking22s]

ya eric i bet that weight of my 6cylinder engine versus your 4 cylinder has something to do with mine rider smoother.

And thanks Nick, glad you like it better now lol

Looks great. I'm a little iffy on the extreme sonoma front end. That modded bumper kind of looks goofy. I think the way you got it now looks much better.

Granted, but the sonoma front end with the extreme grill isn't tease'n my crank like the front of his shit now, lol.

[xtremefour]

I like it. I been kicking this idea around for a while. My idea was to mount the sonoma headlights and use my stk grill and cut it up. I was going to use the bar that separated the s10 headlights and turnsignals to make up any gap on the bottom of the headlights.

Of I was thinking of making my own brackets and centering the headlights and then making a piece to fill in the gap above the hadlights. I am pretty sure that I could make it work but I need to get my truck running first.

I had another grill that I etended and ran over the side of the fenders. Its still a work in progress but so far it looks ok. But once again getting my truck running is the important thing.

Looks good to me.

i cruisearound town with 120psi in the front and 40 psi in the rear and air the fron up to 160 to make a complete turn

[Kunde]

truck looks good bro. i whish i could make my stepside as clean as your fleet. maybe instead of modding you bumper, you should mod your grille so that the bar inbetween the headlight and the turn signal now, are on the bottom of the new lights and still run a little bit of the flat on the bottom of it. you will have to prolly run a modified noma grille to make it work, and you will be able to still run a stock bumper. just a thought. kick it around.

[Xtreme24]

damn, 100 psi almost locks me out. I ride hwy at 50/40 and bad roads at 70/50.
