"This truck makes me poor" Build

[03ranger30]

Nice lookin truck dude. I've been looking for other Edge owners on here to get and share some ideas. A few questions for ya.

Did the air intake give you any noticeable power? I have an 01 reg cab edge. I just threw 31's on and am quite slow on takeoffs. I figured an intake might help out but I'm not really sure.

How about those crank pulleys? Did they help out your fuel economy?

And keep us updated!

Thanks man, I try to keep it looking nice when I can. As for the power gains, you can defiantly feel it in the seat of your pants and the intake noise is great. Fuel mileage is around 19 to 20 every week.

I see you also have 3.73 gears, I have 4.10s in mine and have no problem at all with them. I plan on putting 31s on it and I'm hoping it doesn't slow it down much.

Well if you have 4.10's then you should be set. You'll notice a slow down but probably not by much with those gears, intake and crank pulleys. How much did you tint your windows for? Did you do it yourself? And remember to join the edge owners group! Haha.

The windows are 20% and got them done for a little under 300

Little update...its about time. Ordered some clear corner lights the other day, but I can't decide if I should take them apart and paint them or just leave them the way they are.

id tint em. a slight smoke tint.

That reduces the light output though. What I am thinking about doing is taking these and the headlights apart and painting them....I think it will look good beings that my truck is black.

i dig the black headlights, they look really cool, and yeah on your truck they will look awesome.
But, painted corner lights dont look nice imo. id rather smoke them a bit.

 

[03ranger30]

Ehh I'll decide eventually, I have seen them before and I think they look good IMO

black headlights and smoke corners

Well I am painting them as I type this

 

[03ranger30]

Well I painted the corner lights the other day and think they turned out pretty well.

Now I just need to do the headlights, but I want to find another set so I can work on them and still drive my truck at the same time.

Those look good. I wish I would have painted the entire inside of my clear corners black. I left a little silver right behind the light to try to help throw the light out a little better but I don't really dig how it looks. Yours look great though.

 

[03ranger30]

Thanks man! I just need to get the headlights done too and then it will look complete.

 

[03ranger30]

Little update...they seem to come in chunks. Got some parts in the other day (HIDs and new headlights). Gonna paint the headlights and put them on hopefully sometime this week. Also ordered a smoked third brake light and I am gonna see if I can wire up the cargo lights to work.

Here is a teaser pic.

Finally got some work done to the truck worth mentioning.

DDM tuning HIDs, 6000k for headlights and fogs.

And a smoked third brake light and LED tailgate bar.

Let me know what you guys think.
