The new tow rig, friday night build!

2015.5 denali 2500hd duramax

Looks awesome!!
I am having the same truck built right now. Pick her up on May 9th.. so stoked!!

What lift did you put on?

cognito lift turned to about 14 inches, 24x14 with a -77 backspacing american force wheels and 40x15.50 toyos mts. me and the guys pulled into the shop friday after work, we where backing it out about 4 hours later and thats including aligning it

Nice!
those are some meats man!
Did you swap out the gears as well?

putting 4.88s in it tonight, yanking the factory gov. lock and putting a Detroit locker in it while I'm there. then a fast fuel system, and start building some tunes.

That is a sweet looking truck. Sha-wing!

thanks guys! can't wait to get the boat out of the stereo shop and get some pics with it.

Love those trucks. Luxurious and powerful.

I prefer a more off road look on the wheels but different strokes for different folks.

Congrats!

beautiful truck. I take it your not worried about the warranty?

How much weight do you think you save per rim running those American Force rims vs. and standard one piece 24 x 14 rim????


Love it by the way.

I wouldn't think much if any. I put a set of 24x14 fuel mavericks on my h2 I'm building. They are both heavy as sh$t

That was going to be my next ?

are you going to do a CP3 conversion or just chance the stock CP4 with bigger tunes.





That is the only reason I didn't got back and by a LML when I sold my LMM

but if you only keep it 90 day you would care about that big of a repair bill LOL

Not going to run huge tunes, around 225hp. I'll port and plug the fuel rail with a fast, and keep my wot shifts from 4-5, 5-6 to a min lol

Yea but that's hard to do when your pulling hard on a sports car going down the highway LOL

Trust me I know

24's on a super lifted truck I just can't get into...looks disproportional. 20's or 22's would've looked better IMO. I have 22's on my Dodge Ram 2500 so I do like bigger wheels.

i would agree AJ on smaller tires, say 22s and 35s or 37s, but 40s i like the 24 and even the 26s

You have a shop here in town?

Hope you plan to add flaps so you are not throwing rocks at everyone . Looks awesome though

No mud flaps needed! Oklahoma is pretty easy going

20's or 22's would look TINY on a 14" lift IMO

Beautiful truck. Hope you never need to find covered parking!

That truck is a beast, did you end up changing gear ratios in axles to accommodate for 40" tires to bring back to stock towing power and gas mileage?

Nice truck, but a new one every 90 days? That would be $1000+ a month in just sales tax

lol not every 90 days, just the summer months here in Oklahoma. this truck is nothing but a tow rig, and i only need it to pull my boat these few days. i get some pretty sick deals on my parts since its my personal truck, and the labor is free. i re coop all cost and usually turn a small profit when it sells.

last years tow rig.
