Tom...your truck sounds awesome! What kind of exhaust are you running?
Straight out of the cats? Muffler?

Also...what image hosting place do you guys like best? I'd like to get some
pics of my Dak up, especially now that I've got the Gen-III 15x8's on it
looks spectacular (even with the 255-65's..a little shorter than the
235-75's, but the extra width and wider stance looks great regardless), I'd
like to show it off. Hopefully we get some warm weather this weekend, I
need to buff it, BADLY!!

While I was swapping the wheels I decided to do my pads and rotors (and
believe me I was happy to find 2 cross threaded caliper pins on the pass.
side in a parking lot on a cold, windy saturday evening..took 2 hours to
track down heli-coils!), I used the Performance Friction carbon metallic
pads, they seem to dust like a mo-fo! Anyone else have the same experience
with these? On the other hand I did try the pad bedding procedure which
involved probably 15 stops from 60-65 of varying intensity, and on fresh cut
rotors, maybe the extra tooth is making them dust...at least it's black and
not red like before. Feels great to stop smoothly for once!

Well that's all for now..
