  1. Well all I have been around is the Polaris rzr. the yamaha look like a mix of the wild cat and a raptor. I have owned many raptors and yfz and really like them. but think the yamaha sxs is ugly. sure its got some sweet stuff but I couldn't by it just because of the looks. im sure they will look better with a cage and other add ons but stock im not feeling it.

  2. Is the motor in the truck or out? I had this happen once before with a motor that was out. I ended up having to drill it out. it was a pain. then had to drop the pan to clean it all. If its in the truck I have no clue how its going to work getting it out. is there anything at the top to possibly grab on to? or weld something to.

  3. Front one, you just get the prop shaft from a 5 speed 2500 4x4 truck. I would have the rear shortened, high speed balanced and new u joint.....if it were me (which is exactly what i did lol)

     

    hey man, what size tires are you running, and what is your 70 mph cruise rpm?

    Running a 305/35/24 I cant remember what RPM I'm at around 70

  4. Shawnss will 2500 drivelines bolt right up? If so I'll just get those and not mess with cutting my OEM drivelines... Maybe, I'll look into cost

    I cut mine up and had them re welded but I have heard of guys running the ones out of a 2500hd. but you probably want to double check and make sure the driveshafts came out of a shortbox x-cab. as I'm sure ones from a crewcab long box are different lengths also different lengths if it was out of a regular cab long boxs. but yet guy have used them right out of a 2500 truck.

  5. Gaskets are cake. glad thats all it was. I would not have replaced it with stock bolts. i would have atleast got the Arp bolts. as the factory bolts to torque to yeild bolts so they are not reuasble. On my LS2 I went with the arp and glad Im did because it only lasted 4k miles and I have to open the motor back up but wont have to buy new headbolts again.

  6. Congrats Shawn super nice looking truck. Wish I had a Dmax in the stable also :)

    Not that I even tow to often. but knowing I can tow what I need is nice instead of always borrowing a truck from work. Plus the fuel milage is pretty decent for a lifted truck. with my old 2006 crewcab with the 6.0 I could'nt get anything better then 9.6 MPG on 33s . with this truck on 33's it gets 13.9 intown all stock. it you delete the DEF and DPF with a intake, programmer and exhaust guys get like 15-17 not to bad for a boat. lol

  7. I love that Wrap , is it difficult to do ?

    No it super simple. this was my first time doing something like this. it could be better in a few spots. I will redo a few pieces as I was no using heat at first. then I started using a heat gun and that made it easy. this stuff is awesome. but buy the nice 3M wrap if your going to do it. I bought some cheaper stuff the first time and ended up getting the 3M stuff instead.
