its been a few years since i have been here i owned a 97 ram a long few years ago .. ended up selling it cause i couldnt afford the payments .. but i just purchased a 02 durango with the 4.7 .. i tried searching but i come up empty handed .. im looking to see what mods there are to pep this thing up a bit .. as in tuners .. intakes .. exhaust setup ..headers ect .. and what size tires can i fit on a stock rim .. for a more agressive look .. all the newbie basics .. these durangos are new water for me ... so i appologise .. any info i can get i would greatly apreciate

 

There or lots of upgrades you can do, but for the low budget in mind, you can look at these easy end user upgrades:

K&N OEM replacement air filter
custom ram air intake - located in our DIY thread stickied on top.
SuperChips tuner
Fastman throttlebody

Anything past this point will require more mechanical know how and equipment to make upgrades.

You mention tires. What size stock tire rim do you have currently?

 

heres an awesome thread with lots of great info -

You can also look here for intakes

or

Or even look on ebay for a cheap bolt on intake..


As far as Mufflers.. Its up to how you want it to sound. Most go for the flowmaster 40 type.. Personally I went with an ultra cheap Cherry bomb turbo 2.. even if I have to replace it in a year it was only 20 bucs and 40 to install.

Tuners, you'll probably want to go with a superchips 3715 or 3815 3815 being the newer model.. Not sure of the differences though.


Tires - I think the max on a stock rim with no lift is around 31x10

Just start in the 1st gen durango forum and read posts. There is a huge pool of info in here.

 

Also you can replace your headlights for clear lenses and/or HID. Install ne shocks all around, efan mods to keep your D cool during the summer months all sorts of things. Just do an advanced search for more details.

 

There's a big upgrade you can do that would make it really great! buy a CHEVY!! If I had the money I would get a second gen tahoe but they are holding their value too well. darn these well built cars!

 

Check out my garage, I did Cold Air Intake Kit, new headlights/parking lights, ram air scoop and wrapped the A/C Lines with insulation tape. Read my signature here and you will see some of the stuff I added. The above listed items were reasonably priced projects and right at around $200 for all five projects. ($250 if you included the shipping/handling charges for special order items) Welcome aboard!!

MAGIC
