Official Megacab 12" Lift Thread

***TruckWorkz*** · 02-08-2008, 06:06 PM

I figured I would start a thread on the build up of my Megacab.

We are taking my 2007 Dodge Megacab and adding about 12" of lift, coilover shocks, Deaver rear springs, Fab Fours front and rear bumpers, Katzkin Leather interior (replacing the factory Laramie interior), Pioneer Z2 Navigation, 3 12" subs in the back, custom rear driveshaft, 4.56 gears, the stacks will be 7" stacks next week, 40x15.50x22 Toyo MTs, and 22x11 XD Diesel wheels.

Ill continue to update this over the next few weeks as we continue this build up. This truck already has an indoor spot at Sema 2008.

This is roughly where the truck will be sitting once completed.

Here is the wheels and tires we will mounting on the truck

We test fit the wheel before mounting and balancing the tires on the wheels.

Once we mounted the tires we had to roll them up next to the truck to see how they would look.

I will have factory bumpers, leather interior, non nav woodgrain dash panel, factory CD player satelitte ready, and i am sure some other things.

It is NOT done yet....

maybe in a few minutes... LOL

Tomorrow the door handles come off to be color matched as well as the grill surround. It will than be getting a Grillcraft insert. The hood should be coming off in the next 10 days or so to be replaced as well.

Hopefully the suspension starts to be dropped on monday or tuesday to find exact length of long arms etc.

stay tuned.....

Very similar setup to what I have. I can't wait to see it--it will be awesome!
