RE: Pics.... Finally!!
Thanks guys for comments...
I love the Kore system.... like I've said before, I'm mostly on gravel/clay roads lots of washboard, before I installed the system the a$$ end was always tryin to pass the front end. I've got over 50k miles on the system with no rattles and haven't had any problems with tie rods or ball joints! One thing though with the rear shocks is the sand/gravel is hard on the bushings (had to replace bushings), I hope to solve that by hanging mud flaps over the shocks. I also replaced the oil in all shocks with synthetic oil, better for the colder temps.
The tow hooks are a little small they rattle a bit in the mounts, gona replace em with larger cleavis and throw 2 on the back as well.
The bumpers are Road Armor they are pricy front $1500US and the back about $1300. I got both of them for $1500CND from a fellow who wrote his truck off before he got to install him. [8D]
I went with 20x10 rims as they are so much easier to clean the mud out, with the stock rims I was getting so much mud jammed inside the rims I was going through rear brake pads every 6k miles. The shop I got the rims from said the stock rims were very close to splitting due to therocks/mud jammin up! [
]
I just got my gauge package and gonna be busy this weekend with the install. Next big mod is gonna be a NADP race tranny when me warranty runs out! [8D] Then its Smoke Time... injectors, Fass, Turbo... ect ect [8D]
