Time for my bi-annual FTE posting (W/ PICS...maybe)

Hey yall, ive been pretty distant lately mostly due to school, work and of course my new truck. But i got a new laptop and some down time tonight, and i figured i check in with y'all and let you know how my truck has been coming along.

As some of you know I've finished the 2006 axle swap, got the 09 bumper installed, got my DieseSite CPR fuel system installed (yeah i got lazy and had a big budget-i should have built my own) and today i got my John Woods valve body and Gearhead Tuned Hydra chip installed (BTW i love the hydra mostly because of the ability to have tunes emailed. and intalled on the chip)

hopefully within a few weeks i should be ordering my 250/100 so that i can blow up this tranny and find a reason to get a JW or BTS (a friend of mine is good friends with Cary and said he might be able to get me a hell of a deal on BTS)

now lets see if i can get this picture to upload

That's a great looking truck. Very unique.

How's the ride with the axle swap as compared to stock?

I'm drooling all over my self, lol. I actually like the black with two tone.
Is the 06 axle wider? It really looks awesome with the wide stance.


I like the look of the 09 bumper, but the one downside I see is the front of the frame rails in the bumper pockets.

Maybe it is my monitor, but that looks BLUE and white with Black trim
