Crew Cabs!
 
Lets see pictures of you crew cab guys! Just bought one. About to turbo it. Looking at wheels, tires, suspension set ups and how all of guys are sitting!

Here's my 4x4 05. It was originally a z71 truck. Now has a 346 in ls with twin 66mm turbos. A 4l80e built by myself with lots of billet parts and reverse manual valve body with transbrake. A 241c transfer case I built myself. And a ford 9in rear end. Suspension is a coil over conversion with brackets from atomic fab and a custom ladder bar coil over rear. Suspension mods alone shaved 900 lbs .Rolling on Some 17x9.5 race stars and m&h drag radials. Last year at 18 psi boost it ran 10:29 blowing through the circle d converter that's why the mph is slow. Waiting on my new one from protorque so hopefully I can turn the boost up and get well in the 9's. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.per...9a2f5d40bf.jpg

Awesome build bud. Good to see a 4 door proving everybody wrong that these tanks can still have potential 9 sec passes and put the kids in the back seat. Hope you get that pass this season! I'm hoping to get her in the 11.50s for now. See some 1.5 60s. And not break anything lol. Then shoot for tens. How does that suspension do on the street? What's your truck weigh now? And what size radial is that? Any videos of the passes?

Nice build, but did you mean to say 90 lbs? I'm having a hard time picturing 900lbs worth of suspension parts. :lol:

I guess I forgot ditching the hitch and rear bumper for a roll pan is included in that weight loss but I lost 900 pounds. I gained about 200 of it back with a back brace 9 in Ford rear end but I'm currently 5020 lb. In the stock trim I was barely shy of 6000. I lost a little weight in other places to get where I am but I still have a full interior with stock seats and my roll cage clears two car seats
