Cori's Red 84 short bed

I got this truck about 6 months ago but just now stumbled across this website and have come to love it.

The truck has a 4 inch rough country suspension lift ( i have a set of skyjacker leafs im putting on) im not a fan of the add a block in the rear. Its got hooker comp headers on with a flowmaster single 40 series exhaust on it. Im going to be taking the single off and running true duals. Im not sure if i wanna do 40 series or supper 44s

I just put some 33x12.5 BFG mud terrains on it

i will try to add better pictures soon

Re: Cori's Red 84 short bed

@ Patriot... yea it has a 4 inch lift with 33x12.5s... when i get back from this deployment im going to be putting 35x12.5s on it, it has the 700r4. I LOVE MY OVERDRIVE

@ lvschevytrucks.... thanks man yea i really wanna go black but like i said it all depends on how much they charge me for the body work... bc that will determine how much money i have left over for the paint lol

Considering 383?

Re: Cori's Red 84 short bed

Nice truck!!

my only advice is to ditch the Flex fan, they are noisy, horsepower robbing, grenades waiting to explode and send shrapnel flying.
A good stock fan with a proper functioning clutch is much better, but electric would be the best.
