    Custom tail gate step

    Hi, I thought my build would interest some people who don't have the OEM tail gate step and don't want to swap the whole gate for it... Steel tubes, bolts, welds, a good LineX shop and there you go ! Apart from the LineX, cost for the tail gate is around 150$ and a pack of beers for my...

    Tire pressure for rocky/mud trails ?

    Well 25 PSI is quite low I find, gonna give it a try around 25-30 PSI and see how it feels. Running 20-25 PSI on soft terrains like sand is OK for me, but it feels very low for hard trails if i tend to reach high speeds over 60-70 mph, these trucks are really willing to speed up, I'm amazed...

    Tire pressure for rocky/mud trails ?

    Hi guys, I've done some reasearch on this board about tire pressure but it mainly talks about sand... Unfortunately we don't have that much sand here but mainly rocky trails, the kind of trails that shake your bum like hell, with treacherous rocks awaiting to tear some fancy 35" tires if you...

    The HIDs could be retrofitted easily so that's not a big issue...You could also add some LEDs bars... I would go for at least a 2013 in order to have the latest MyTouch...Maybe not the biggest point for you bit it will make a difference on resale IMO...
