Default Truck Pics

http://gallery.mac.com/mattkata#100023 (wasn't sure how to set up my photo gallery, but this should work. let me know a better way to display a photo)

07 Ram 1500 2WD, 4.7

4" CST Lift Kit
2" Rear blocks
CST Shocks

285/70/17 BFG Mud Terrain KM2's
Motto Metal 950 Wheels

Tires are great. Road noise is minimal. The place I got it all done at is about 50 miles away from home and the noise was barely noticeable with the radio on and doing about 70 mph. These are my first M/T's and like I said before, I might be wearing it, but I figure if I take care of them well, I can get the most out of them. I might be the typical looks guy, but after seeing the truck now, I will definitely get a 4X4 the next one!

Was looking ahead to the next project, any thoughts? I was thinking an intake and exhaust. Supposed to increase mpg's a bit? Also, with the 4.7, I can put a chip in to increase the HP? Will run a search and do my research on that.

I hate when people say that. First off is there any one that likes the nose down look. Also does anyone realize that the trucks that run the baja 1000( im talking the $350000 ones) are only 2wd and they pretty much are the kings at off road. Plus lifting a 2wd is alot easier. Some only need the lift knuckles and what not. I actually really like how his truck is setup it's not overkill it's perfect. Only if it had black wheels, thats just me though.

and i hate it when people dont dont see that there goin over most packed ground and dont hit any deep mudd pits. Tell u what put that sucker on a muddly inline and tell him to go up hill? or about a ice road up hill? Kings of off road? are u kidding me? there built for goin fast over huge bumps.
