Thanx guys! However, those of you that know about PCS and DITY, I can't be helped. I am not moving from a base to a base, and my new wife isn't on my orders... so it is all out of pocket. Unless you know some loop hole...
Good to know though I would have been strapped for time if I didn't get this stuff ordered now.
Forgot to mention- I got a 4.7, don't know the gearing offhand but I will definitely get to use my tow/haul button for once!

 

Hey trucky just curious you had painted your exhaust tips right? How did it hold up? I did mine with 500 degree bbq paint and 2 months later they're rusty again.

 

They are still black, they get dirty sometimes being so close to the tires...but it comes off clean. However every once in a while it kinda burns off the edges so I touch it up, no big hassle though, cuz it looks great!

 

Oh yah and I think I use some autozone paint that goes to 1200/1500 degrees....

 

Cool thanks, I saw that stuff the other day and I was thinking about trying it, just annoying to cut the tip off again and get it welded back on but it'll be worth it.

Did you end up ordering the factory hitch or go aftermarket?

 

Beware the tow haul! It will downshift into 3rd about any time you are picking up speed without your foot on the gas. Great if you want to slow down, but my complaint is they should let the driver control when it goes into 3rd to slow you down. The computer has no idea what the road ahead is like. I really think there can be something set up that can be turned on at the flick of a switch to tell the throttle position sensor you are not of the gas (lets it stay in 4th-the highest gear you can have while in tow haul), then flip the switch, while going down hill, it lets the TPS say you are not on the throttle, yet speeding up, so you engine brake when YOU want to. Look on the front diff, you should see a 3.55 or 3.92 sticker. With the 3.92s, in tow haul you are running a 2.94 ratio (3.92 x .75) With 3.55s, it's a dismal 2.66, not much more gear than my 3.92s in 5th, 2.63s. They really need to make that 4th gear have be more centered between 3rd and 5th. Yuck!

 

Ahh the plight of the automatic transmission owner...
