Welcome to the site, and hello to a fellow Albertan! A B/L and some 33's would look damn good on that truck!

Thanks, Ive noticed its rare since ive been unsucessfully looking for other reg cab FX4's. I am planning on doing a 3" body lift and putting some 33's on it. Thinking about some 17" ballistic jesters and nitto terragrapplers, or something that wont be too loud on the streets. And its an automatic not stick. The Flashpaq did help out power a good bit, they claim 13-14hp i think and almost 20 ft/lbs and I think its pretty close personally, feel it allot more in mid-rpm's though. But the shifting is sooo much better, the firmness and timing is adjustable but i find the recommended settings work perfect. Plus if you tell the programmer you have z-rated tires it will take out the 150kph governor. So all in all i think it was worth the money.

That'll look awesome on some 17's, terra grapplers should be fairly quiet too. Ya need to get a TRS decal, something to make ya stand out in the mean time, lol. What part of Edmonton are ya in? My parents/my GF's parents live around of sherwood park, so we spend a lot of time up there.

Living in Clareview currently. How do you like your rear disc's, I've been thinking of doing it. Can you do it on stock axles?

 

[wahlstrom1]

They work great, I can stop better with 35's then I used to be able to on 31's. I swapped in a whole Explorer rear axle to get the bigger tubes/bearings/shafts, but you can swap just the discs too. HERE is Joel's writeup on it.
