Just as the title states. Needed a real tower. The 450 with the 6.4l is just the answer. I love this truck. Very comfortable, lots of power, and with the 4:10's, it pulls like a tractor. Very stable on the road. HD trim level is nice as well. Sad to see the ol' one go, but it wasn't practical for towing.

Thanks Caprang, I am really enjoying this truck. Nothing bad to say so far. A real pleasure to drive and tow with.

Sharp truck. I like the way you've got the smoked theme going. Where'd you get the headlight covers and how much does it block the light when driving at night?

Thanks for the replies guys. The lights are not HID'S. I got a really good deal for all lights on the truck and 2 led light strips under the tailgate. The headlights are not covers, they are an actual replacement of the entire stock headlight. All of the lights are led's. I have not noticed any difference in night driving. They seem to be very bright.

The factory tinted HD headlights look good but still have that yellow strip in them. Those look even better.

Is your 6.4 running stock with a different exhaust system? Do you have a DPF?

Truck looks GREAT

Caprang, yeah the ellow strip wasn't working for me with the smoke look...lol
astamp78, I will find out from my supplier where he got them from and let you know.
ruschejj, It is not running stock. Exhaust, dpf delete, intercooler, intake etc, were all upgraded, along with some help from Spartan tuning....and the boys at Dirty Diesel. Great crew there.
