Default Any hints or tricks.

I just bought an 08 2500HD Laramie. I am planning on lifting it and putting bigger tires on it. Does anyone know if the suspension on the 07 is the same as the 08. And if anyone has any other tricks or good mods for the new 6.7 please let me know.

I don't know if it is available for an 08 or if it is just the 07s right now, but edge has the juice available now for the 6.7.

Just came across that earlier this week.

Yeah they are out. I was suprised. I was really looking for an 07 5.9 but no dice. The dealer only had 08 6.7 and 07 6.7 so I went with the 08. They gave me a deal I couldnt resist.

I think that got it. . .all I see is a red x due to websence at work. . .anyway, if you look at the menu strip above the text box you will see where you can make the type bold, italics, bullets and what not. the very last one on the right is how you can link to images.

First of all WELCOME - - Need a fellow potato lover here (hehehehe the wifes's Irish too)

Is that a Dave Smith motor's plate holder? Kellogg ID rocks! Saved the wifes pops a good chunk of change when he did his deal.

As for the 'deployed over seas' good luck man!

It looks like the wife parked it good and even washed it make sure you keep that lady happy!!!

Now as or what to do to it. As the others said think the suspension and everything is the same. Engine stuff for the 6.7 is still a bit hard to find. We've got a 6.7 sitting in the driveway and are having a hard time finding the toys we want. NADP is working on an exaust system for it that will allow for the DPF's to become slightly missing Hopefully they will have it out in a few months.
