Back in the summer of 2023, my wife bought a Lexus, then I sold the Ram and another F150 replaced it.
Much has changed.
2022 upgrades to GITWIKD
Decided to cam swap my wife’s 2005 GT and the deal was for her to drive my truck while I worked the bugs out. Jesus H Christ, did I have no idea how many kinks I was facing!!! I’ve had to sort through this list since April 25th:
- SCT tuner issue
- Heater hose burst
- Prochamber baffle came loose
- Serpentine belt shredded
- Replaced Prochamber with X-pipe
- Power steering pump locked up + 2nd belt shredded
Much more to come!
Introducing Artax
It was time to trade the 2015 F150 because the mileage was getting high and it was time to upgrade. After an exhaustive search for the right truck, I settled on this 2022 Ram 2500 Laramie. This particular truck is four wheel drive and is powered by the venerable 6.7 Cummins diesel. It is very nicely appointed and a lot more comfortable to drive than expected. We will be posting updates and we personalize this truck.
Taking it down a notch
Gave the parts hauler some love by installing a Belltech lowering kit. Afterwards, had an alignment performed. It rides quite well, all things considered.
I’ve been busy…
I’ve taken the past week to start installing my wife’s supercharger! The Department of Boost GT450 kit uses an Eaton M122 and a custom, billet aluminum manifold. The rest has been a custom affair with many trips to find obscure parts and a few parts through the mail. When all is settled, it will be one tire frying monster.
