Are you sure you want a WILD cam?
You think you have idle issues now just wait. Everything has to be darn near perfect to get a WILD cam to idle.
ill get it right. But that's the only part I'm wavering on.

Sounds all great ! but are you sure you want the lift and big tires. Are you thinking of a pre-runner stance? Might have to swap rear end gears to keep performance at a level you will be happy with.


Pre-runner indeed. Gears are a part also. Want 4.56's

Those taillights look terrible.

Wild cam in a dd sounds like a recipe for disaster. IMO, if you don't have the support system to justify the cam, you're not going to utilize the potential of a big bump stick. The rest sounds just fine, and 37's with 4.56's won't be all that bad.

The truck won't be getting the bigger can till its not the DD anymore.
