    Do you think it will clear 34x11.50's without trimming?

    I do bugs. The new body style with the square wheel wells don't give you a lot to massage anyways. Inner fender has the metal body mount. If it's going to rub that's where it will do it. 11.50's will help a lot.

    I haven't done heated seats yet but I'm not skeered. I've done my fair share of audio.

    ALMOST bit, but spit the hook instead.

    Oh, and my 25-hunnit didn't come with a back dash, nor have I been able to locate spinners that can handle the heavy-Chevy's weight. Just sayin'...

    KRT-a coupla more (unrelated) questions: what makes EFI Live so much better than the other programmers? Are they worth it if all you've done is a cat-back DPF delete? Don't wanna highjack your thread, so please just PM me if you don't wanna discuss here. Thanks in advance.

    Probably comparing apples to apples. BFG's have proved they are great tire. I like Toyos and if asked what I would recommend, it's going to get the Toyos. The Open Country AT Xtremes are beginning to grow on me. At the moment they are only in a few select sizes.

    EFI live is basically the platform (software) tuners use to write the tune. It does play a key role in tuning the truck. If the platform isn't stable then there will be issues. Is EFI Live the best or better? Depends on who you ask. I've had zero issues and I'd imagine I've done hundreds. Black Bart, to answer your question... you probably will be fine with Bully dog, Spartan, etc. If you want more advice or opinions shoot me your number.

    On a side note... EZ Lynk is now on the scene. It's cloud based (wireless) tuning. PPEI has their tunes on this platform for the duramax LML engine and offer shift on the fly for the first time since the LMM (2007.5-2010) engine. I have not used it yet as it's 1350.00 just for the tunes. EZ lynk is out for the Powerstroke and is currently being tested on Cummins for an estimated Feb release date.

    Ford: I like SCT Livewire with Gearhead tunes. The 6.7 responds soooooo well with this.
