Yes, but you can't do any dot mods like Turbo Dots, NOS Dots, or even Harpoon your dots.

Oversize dots are not recommended and may decrease truck performance and reliability.

Dots should be serviced at regular intervals, at the very least inspected every time you fuel your vehicle and cleaned as needed.

Your dots may vary.
