Looks great! Did you have to trim the rear studs to install the 1.25”? I have 1.25” boras on the way for all four corners

Thanks! As for your question... Well... i guess not... but i did. I did one side before i noticed there are areas drilled out right where they will end up. Everyone talks about the groove cut into the stock bead locks. Mine stuck out too far for the groove and that is what i was fixated on. The holes are bored out for balancing and vary in depth but are located right where you need them. See below:

So long as yours were balanced the same way... i think you are fine to save yourself the extra work. On the other hand.... if you ever go with something different you’ll have to deal with it. I just did both sides in back so i don’t have to worry about it.

Couple of notes... i wire brushed everything real good. Used high temp anti-seize between spacer and hub, used red loctite to attach, and also sealed up my cut ends where i ground studs.

Monday I installed the Cobb Stage 1 Kit.

Yesterday I tried it out.

Sport Mode, AWD, Traction Control off. No standing on brakes. Just stab the throttle.
Sub 5 Seconds is pretty damn impressive for something that weights 5700 lbs.

Had the whipple kit installed today and my truck is considerably slower than stock. Sport mode, traction control off and it won't even chirp the tires much less roast them like before.

Don't know what's wrong but something ain't right. Does the truck need to relearn itself?

From others posts it sounded to me like it was instant difference for the better.
