Don't think I've shared some under hood pics.. Jasper Stage 1 350 crate motor with long tubes and an eddy intake. Put the motor in 2 years ago and am happy with it but studying LS swap material and diesel swaps.

Are those an exact fit? What did they run you?

:hat:
No.. unfortunately they don't make em for our squares. They are a cut to fit for $29.99 at Costco.. they do fit well and come with traction pucks that make them stay put. Jumping in and out of the burb made my others slide..side note - I have the custom fit weather techs in my ram and delivered my daughter in the front seat..let's just say, they hold spills and splatter real well! Haha Still wishing she would've been born in the Burb though..the ram will be gone when I find a crew K30 to replace it

Removed and upgraded my old lights to H4 system . They look good but now I have an issue with dim lights at low beam when high beams are n and just the opposite when low beams are on high beams dim.
They worked fine before the swap. Should have been a plug and play.
I bought the harness with relays from lmc truck a while back . That was an easy installation. So I decided to get the h4 setup as the new 4x6 lights off the shelf at your local auto parts store you can see through the chrome .
This truck is a work in progress as with anything this old.
96000 original miles .

Big block!!! It's the 'end all' answer for any big truck that does any towing. You can even do 8.1L which is like the "LS" of big blocks.
