Default 2011 FX4 White and Black

Be a grizzly!

Start: 2011 FX4 Ecoboost fully loaded with the stock 20's
Stage 1: Line-X and BakFlip
Stage 2: Alpine SPR Type R, Alpine PQE H660, Alpine PDX F4, Kicker CVT Comp 12, and a Kicker mono 400 watt
Stage 3: Livernois 87 performance tune and Solo Performance MR400 exhaust
Stage 4: FUEL Offroad Nutz 2 Piece on 33x12.5x22 Toyo M/T with a 2.5 level

I have a problem with just getting something in my head and having to do it. This setup is not for everyone but I think that it's perfect for what I am looking for.

I will be adding pictures once everything is done.
I will be glad to answer any questions.

Sounds like a nice build! Always good to plan it out ahead of time too

Yeah I just wanted something different. Was going to get the Mavericks but they weren't available here locally.

I don't know if I would call it a plan... Just 4 weeks of splurging.

Just went 1300 miles with the new tune and solo exhaust. Gas mileage was up 2 mpg for lifetime average and 2.5 on my previous 4 tanks. The exhaust is actually very quiet. I could hardly hear it over my stereo at 1/4 volume. This week I am getting the new wheels put on. The shop just got them in I just need to find the time.

Yeah I had to wait just an extra week since I went on a little road trip and didn't want to put the wear on the new shoes.

Don't worry Wednesday you will have plenty of pictures. The shop is going to take a bunch for their website.
