Default Summer Work...

This is just me writing down the plans for the Hemi this summer...finally got myself a good paying job with killer hours so hopefully by the end of the summer it'll be rollin fat...

-Pacesetter LT Headers
-AT 3030 Mufflers
-Superchips Programmer
-TopGunCustomz Leveling Kit
-Mickey Thompson MTZ 33x12.50s
-Ram Air Hood
-Line-X
-Some kind of tonneau cover
-5% Tint all the way around

As for the suspension and tires...im kinda thinkin about a 4.5" lift and 35s...but i think im definitely leaning towards the set up listed...

Wow. Impressive list. Mine is similar. Except my bills are too high to expect to get them done over the summer. Can't wait too see the progression.

good call on keeping the hemi!

mmstar, don't bother with the steel drive shaft. it really isn't worth the money.
how hard was it to install your headlights?

took me about 1 hour with a little adjustment of the projectors which still isnt right. the high beam and projector just plug into your harness, but the 6 LEDs, and the halos all have negaitve and positive wires that have to be tapped into your running light on your blinker/running light bulb (the amber one) you just have to find which wire is negative and which is running, so you dont tap into the blinker and they all blink when you turn on your blinker....you can find that all out with a voltage tester. and theres only 3 wires so its not hard

and for the steel driveshaft, ive heard a few cases with the aluminum one breaking because of the new gears at high speeds. therefore i would need to replace it with a steel one, but thats only if mine breaks
