Went to the track tonight, my best was 15.62 @ 87.8 in 4wd. I dropped over a second from last year with the tune and a bit of weight loss.

Very nice. Just for reference, I went 13.2 with the mods in my Sig. I was running mid 15s with crappy exhaust and a mail order tune. You can definitely hit your 13 goal. Any idea what the truck weighs?

Thanks....

I'm not sure how much it weighs, I've been meaning to throw it on the scales just haven't had a chance.

Lol........ With 1500 lbs on it maybe. My 1500HD crew cab is around 5600 lbs empty. A W/T model reg cab would be closer to 5K.......

Haha, I guess I was a little bit off then. I've never put it on a scale, all I know is this thing is heavy. Either way, I'm pretty happy to be in the 15's for what it is.

What size tire is on those 16s?

Is that stock height? Can you measure ground to the bottom of the fender front/rear for me?

They're Lt285/75r16's and the torsions are cranked a bit, not much though. I also had to trim the bumper a bit but you can barely tell unless you know.

Height from ground to bottom of fender is:

Front: 39 7/8"

Rear: 41 3/8"

The Fuel Tank is Full right now so the rear might be a bit higher in the photo's above.
