Been awhile since I posted up dates.

The truck is now on 20x9” Black Rhino Karoo (weigh less then 30lbs each), 2/4” bell tech drop.

I also took it to the track, and was able to get one pass in. It ran a 13.1 at 106mph. It had an awful 2.2sec 60ft. It felt like the torque management bogged it down out of the whole. I launched in 4hi, and tried to rev it to 2k rpm. The Roush tune also prevented it from going over 106.

Howell thanks for the updates. I'm running 3.73 in mine (with Roush supercharger and exhaust) and I can confirm that first gear is useless.

Thanks for all the updates!

Nice build. Sounds like you are in Ohio?? Just curious, haven’t seen a lot of Ohio represented :-)

we actually just moved down to Florida a few months ago.

the rear is lowered between 4“ to 5”. The kit was designed to drop it 4” but then added a bigger shin to give the drive line a better angle due to low mph vibration. A couple undated pics from tonight. I just installed the raptor style lights and installed my spoiler a couple weeks ago.
