Question More Idea's!!

Just wondering if rockers would be a good mod to do on a stock truck? I know they help a bit of lift, I will be doing headers and LS1 Edit, But rockers may be a good bolt on as well! And much more room to do them then my car has!!
By the way, this is on my 03 2500hd 6.0 tow rig!

don't waste your money. the stockers are very good and aftemarket ones will cost you out the wazoo.

OK, good to know. I thought a difrent ratio might give more lift, But oh well.
I gues for now a set of long tubes,ls1edit and a tq converter will do. Ontop of my current mods.

it would give you more lift, but the cost is a bit crazy.

What kind of Hemi truck does he have? 3/4 ton? Quad Cab? If you are talking about a 1/2 ton regular cab you will have your hands full. I think you are on the right path with everything else you have in your plans.

Good Luck!

I think Headers And Edit Would be a good start...Maybe even Some pulleys and a good gear but if you are doing alot of towing they will Eat more gas.....

Ps..Saw your Z28 in GMHTP.......Super Nice Ride.....Rims looked Costly.....

Rocers do help out .. but they aren't justifiable by the cost. There is more power to be had this early in the game with that much money. If you had a set laying around or can pick a set up cheap, then go for it.

Nasty N8 had some that he was pushing that were relatively cheap compared to others. Have you seen those? I think I saw a post in the Internal Engine section.
