    Cognito & Wheels on at last

    Long story short, I wanted the new Remington Hollow Point wheels, but they were out of the Satin finish, so I went with the Flat Black. They then shipped me 1 wheel with the wrong bolt pattern & had no idea when they could get a new one in stock. I ended up with my second choice, the BMF...

    Fabtech upper control arms & Dual Shock Hoop w/ Cognito 4-6 NTBD Lift Kit

    I know. I'm going to have to sell it with the note that they will need to buy UCAs and ball joints. Its such a pain trying to figure the specifics and most cost effective way of going about things. All I really want to do is lower it enough to clear ~34.5-35" tires. Do you still have...

    Fabtech upper control arms & Dual Shock Hoop w/ Cognito 4-6 NTBD Lift Kit

    I have plans to lower my truck a bit and get some new wheels/tires, so I was going to get a 4-6 and set it just high enough to clear some 35s. I know the 4" kits do not require new UCAs. Can I reuse my current UCAs on a smaller lift or will they push the tire too far out due to...

    Complete Suspension/Chassis in POR15

    At first, I wasn't going to go with it, because I heard it was the best of the best and then some say it didn't do much. I almost went with rust bullet and at the last minute changed my mind and went with it. I saw what 2 winters did to the rustoleum bed liner sold in quarts at walmart and the...

    Complete Suspension/Chassis in POR15

    Thanks. I brushed on as much as I could, so that I could get a nice thick coat on there. I sprayed hard to reach areas such as the inner chassis near the fuel tank area/inside lower rockers/etc with the wand. I got a cheapo "Astro Pneumatic 4538 Economy Air Undercoat Gun" on ebay for about...

    Complete Suspension/Chassis in POR15

    After many many hours of prepping, grinding, & sanding, I've I think I've finally finished making the truck semi-winterproof. When I bought the truck, it had chips on the rockers and rather than painting it and having these chips only reappear again, I ran bedliner on them and the fenders...

    4.56 Gears - Correct parts before pulling the trigger

    The lift was on the truck when I purchased it. Thanks for your insight. I went ahead with the 4.56 and they are on their way. I have somewhat of buyers' remorse, but I know that once I have them on, I will love them regardless if they're 4.11 or 4.56. Either will make such a dramatic...

    4.56 Gears - Correct parts before pulling the trigger

    I'm in Akron, Ohio (NE Ohio) The biggest thing about my decision on the gears was if I'm going to do it, I'm going to go with a big change. By that, I mean going up 2 sizes to the 4.56 rather than 1 step up w/ the 4.11. 4.56 will be a little over geared with a 35", so I'm still up in the air...

    Hello from Ohio

    That is definitely some good advice. I appreciate it. I will look into Blackout Performance. PA isn't too far from me since I'm just off I-76. Noo wayy :D I drove all the way to NYC to get that honey. Although the new C7's make it quite tempting to part ways w/ it, I would probably kick...

    4.56 Gears - Correct parts before pulling the trigger

    I already have a 11.5 Yukon R&P for the rear and I'm about to get the other 3 missing pieces. Before I push "buy", I wanted to run these by anyone here that may have advice/experience. The bearing kits change 2010+ and I want to make sure the 9.25" front R&P is reverse rotation. I've done...

    Hello from Ohio

    Haha, I know. I love the goat and its a quick son of a gun. I don't foresee the Dmax coming anywhere close for a while and after some very expensive purchases. I'm in the Akron area (NE Ohio)

    Hello from Ohio

    After about a year and a half of compulsively reading these forums, I figured it was time to say hello. The knowledge I have gotten off here has been of much help and I look forward to learning even more. My plans are to get my truck as fast as my car :thumb: My garage: '04 Duramax - 8"...
