Anybody doing E85 conversions? I had an Audi RS3 and that thing looooooved E85.
I'd be super tempted to see what you can get out of a fairly tame 91 octane tune with these turbos. Not sure I want to do a trans rebuild etc but that rig you have sounds amazing 😲
Hey, CO front range driver here -- your quote is a little high I think. I did the front quarter panels, hood, mirrors first for $1500. Then a couple months later I went back and did the doors and bed sides for another $3500. So all in was $5K for the PPF. Nothing on the roof or the tailgate...
Carbonized Gray is Best Gray.

Thanks! Really happy with where it ended up, you're going to love it. The 703 looks so good on these trucks, and +35 moves the tires out just a bit to fill the fenders nicely.
I wasn't sure if this was a "wheels and tires" post or a "bumpers and armor" post, but I'm finally done with all the suspension shenanigans! Bumper, winch, skidplates, suspension tweaks plus new tires and wheels. A lot going on, but I'm very happy with the results -- the truck looks better IMO...
Finished my suspension shenanigans -- back to stock springs and 2"/1" GOAT spacers. 315/70r17 K03 tires on Method 703 +35 wheels. No more driveline vibration!
After changing the wheel size in Forscan, you need to run the PCM and AWD "initialization/relearn" steps. You should also probably do the ride height calibration just in case.

Foutz makes one in a couple colors, made in Arizona. I got the black one:

You might be on to something, found this spec sheet listing preferred caster as 3.45.
I don't understand how that would affect the drive shaft angle though?
Yeah I was thinking the same thing, so I put in a Foutz UCA. It aligned better with the new UCA and is definitely more stable (that fixed a 50mph straight-line wobble), but that had no affect on the wobble under acceleration in 4A or 4H.
