Are you planning to regear? Otherwise your truck will be a dog with 37s. :-\

You'll need like 4.38 to 4.55 gears I would think.

I would honestly go with the 35s. Unless you need the extra rubber. The drop in performance IMO isn't worth the extra size, and a regear will be a necessity. But nice truck

I was planning on getting a few mod's like, K&N cold air, mass air flow sensor, exhaust and reprogram the computer with a Accel supertuner performance tuner. Should add at very least 40hp. That would put it up around 400hp.


Any comments???

I had K&N cold intakes before. I never noticed any really performance improvement overall to justify the price. Just watch out for over oiling the air filter in K&N's, As you drive a fine mist will coat the MAF sensor and cause problems. Just make sure you don't over oil the filter.

40hp hey? I take it you added all the super duper proven horsepower gain numbers off the boxes. Good luck.
On the other hand, those Coopers look awesome. I have no idea how long they last, but they sure look good.

Yeah I think you're over estimating the influence many of those mods would have on performance.....


Money is better spent on gears....where performance is REAL and factual, not debatable. You'll need ~$1700-$2200 to regear your truck if it is 4WD.


I would also agree on 35s over 37s.

No, I figured maybe 10hp per mod, but yeah I'm guessing!

I like it man! Cross Bones text is not my style, but perhaps a different font would have appealed to me more. Still, whatever makes the driver happy right?

Love the Raptor graphic tho! Will look beast when you finish
