Default New mods on the way

Well, the Ram is currently in the shop getting some "elective surgery."

2" leveling kit
Genuine Gears 4.56 ring and pinion
Auburn LSD

I'll have pics of the level up tomorrow after it's finished. Would have been done today but... well that's a story for another time. Looks like I'll have to join the 4.56 club

I was really really close to getting 4.88s, and decided I needed to squeeze a little more highway miles out of a tank. The 4.7 cruises nicely at 2100-2400 RPM, higher than that and the mileage goes to hell, and the 4.88s would have pushed me into that range. I've been doing a lot more highway driving than I had intended, so I made the sacrifice.

Well, you know who to blame for that. You can kill 'em after my truck is finished.
