Well this is my 06' Dodge 2500. I've built it for chase support, and recovery of my Bronco when I brake it prerunning.

Those Walkers and Toyos really set off the look of that truck. Nicely done.

Well this is the skinny on the suspension,
Carli coils & Carli/Deaver mini pack in the rear
K.O.R.E. Coil spring isolators
Thuren Fabrication Heim Track Bar, Full Heim joint steering, & Front shock towers
Fox 2.0 Remote reservoirs that are valved to K.O.R.E specs
PSC Steering Box Stiffener
Johnny Joint control arms & sway bar links built by my brother in-law and I.
Everything works pretty damn well, I do get nothing but grief though about the 2.0 shocks from all my buddies. I am going to up grade those at some point though. The only issues I've had with them is getting major shock fade while about 10 miles into prerunning the Lucerne Course B. Its way to heavy of a truck to run for that long on a course without bigger shocks.

That thing auto or stick? I think the Cummins in 06 was like the highest output of any year.

Its an auto, with a shift kit. That still hasn't stopped me from having trans issues though. I love my truck, but the stock Dodge trans is junk. Its the 325hp, 610tq, 5.9L motor.

Yea, the old 727 with the tailshaft OD or a manual is the way to go. The auto tranny is the only thing I have heard bad about those trucks. I want to put a Cummins in my F250 so bad!

What's the backspacing on those Walkers? I'm looking for a set for my eight lug four door bronco.
