u read my mind! after the lift and audio/video install i'm lookin at a complete exhaust overhaul (headers, y-pipe, hiflow cat, muffler, and some turndowns). not sure which brand or setup to go with yet, but i know i want a super deep throaty (not raspy) tone. something intimidating like a pit bull's growl that shakes the ground beneath me lol

What's that truck got under the hood? It doesn't look like there is a Hemi badge in your sig picture.
Truck should look really nice when you get it done. I've never seen those big of tires on that size of rim in person before. Truck will definitely be a turn around from what it is now.

just the 4.7. when i bought it it was gonna be my daily driver but one thing leads to another, now i have a different DD so this has become more of a hobby than anything. i almost got the hemi kinda kicking myself now, but a supercharged 4.7 with my gears will have more power and better MPGs anyhow. maybe bigger cams are in my future too. kinda scared to open up the motor though, i just barely pushed it over the 50k mark the other day, its still just a baby...

Let us know how that thing turns those wheels. That would be my concern is to how much power that thing can get to the ground turning those big b***ards.

Thanks for clearing that up! Didnt think they would post 4 times while i was posting!
Cant wait to see another 2wd truck lifted to hell, with huge rims and little sidewall on mud terrains. Ill take my so-so modded truck in the rough stuff any day over that. But congrats on your mods! To all their own!
