Speak for yourself there Frenchster Seriously though, I will do this if it all test out. The ability to make power up top vice loosing it is worth it in my opinion. On D/D they have been talking about this for the last month or so.

 

hahaha... well, I was referring to stock to stock. lol

 

what exactly is it that causes that tick?

I mean, is it something bad? I can't imagine it is.

 

If I had it to do over again (for a street machine):

Start with 2WD vs 4WD
H.O. Cams
4.10 gears (OEM, not aftermarket)
Ported Heads
Solid Lifters
08 and above intake
72mm throttle body
SCT tuner
Headers
Cat Back
Electric PULLER fan
Oversize Pulleys

For Race Only:
Six speed manual
4.56 gears
Supercharger
Nitro

Have I spent three years salary yet???????


But I won't do it again. Bought a Ram TRX Hemi. It'll remain bone stock.

My 05 Dak in the background. Hell no I didn't trade it in. Best truck I've ever owned...all time favorite.

 

I honestly think the ONLY way you'd be able to make 4.56 gears useable with the 6speed is if it was a dedicated track vehicle.

 

I've spent about $4,000 on performance mods and I'm probably going to drop another 1,000 or so this spring. With the billet cams probably $2,500.

05Dakotaho,add the supercharger to your street list and that is just about where I'm sitting, lol.

 

Yep.

 

i am done with my truck, its getting to the point where it dangerous to drive, i cant seem to not wanna race everyone on the highway, hitting 142 with ease is fun, but dangerous, had sharon in the truck one time and it was unexceptable, my next dak will be a striped model, i plan on taking my truck off the road an just using it as a weekend warrior. to much invested to smash it up. i love the truck and it came out better than i exspected, i will never sell it and it will always look good

 

amen!!
