are yours power? If so ill trade you mine. I need power ones in return though. I wont want these cuz they are a bitch to paint. I want the none dumbo ones.

As for the bed i have a Bedrug to put in it, and im putting a bed cover over it again, im not sure what brand yet.. i was thinking flush mount, but i don't like how none durable they are. So i might go with the same thing i had last time.

ok 600 at the crank 450 at the wheels. little less then double.

I was making a point comparing how the bolt on felt to the stock one. My bad.

First of I've always hated your rims, nothing against you, just not my cup o' tea.

Secondly. Im not 'hatin' on users truck what so ever. He had a nice r/t. Probably the nicest truck on here. He knows that, and he knows I've complimented his truck on numerous occasions. He also knows his truck wasn't making twice the stock amount of torque. I think he was just making a point about his new truck and exagerated a little.

When have I ever hated on how he built his truck. The ONLY thing I would change would be the clear tails. But its just MY OPINION, he knows I wasn't a fan of them but OH WELL, it's not my truck its his. My opinion shouldn't effect how he built his truck. He built it how he liked it. The way it should be. I've never downed how he built it.

So thanks Loud. No wonder you had to make a thread before asking if people hated you...

You just have tio research and find some places that do it. I would try either Tom Fox, or B&G they seam to have some good guys working on the OBD2 and from this link below this has some guys that MIGHT work on the OBD1 computers. Look into it.

O my ****ing god.... Insurance just called me, and Ann told me that they are going to have (drum roll please........) Barrett Jackson!!!! Yes.. i said it... review my truck and give my insurance a quote on what it would be worth... I feel honored to have them review my truck! This is AMAZING!!!!!!

I will hear back monday on what the quote is. I already looked up on the barrett jackson site my truck and i found 3 other R/Ts that have been sold in his auctions, 2 of them looked stock and not many mods, and pulled about 9-10k, another one was fully custom and looked like total **** and pulled 20k... My engine bay looked bay better then his, and his interior was about as clean as mine, and the overall body cosmetics looked better on mine then his...

I cant wait...
