My build! Hard service mower. Honda GC 190, Gator G5 21” blade, re-purposed Amsoil pre-filter, heavy duty ball bearing wheels and of course a Cummins decal! This mower screams... let me know what ya’s think? Stay health!

Tell me about it... I’ve been looking into headlights for a while now but the ones I want to get are 6-700 bucks. LED projectors with custom matte black painted interior factory housings. Don’t really want to blow a couple hundred on aftermarket ones that will leak and have condensation issues...

Quick update... The shop that painted the center caps black didn’t prep the chrome so the paint started to peel almost immediately. I decided to strip the paint and do them myself with plastidip. I used the plastidip primer first which acts as an adhesion promoter. I sprayed 5 coats of color and...

Thanks for the info! I was apprehensive about NH mainly because of the initial cost along with the annual cost of maintaining it... I will be looking into Fluid film harder for sure! I seem to remember reading that it wasn’t too friendly if it got on rubber components (brake/fuel) lines? I don’t...

Sounds like you’ve got a pretty nice set up! I get tons of compliments on my rig as well because it only has 49k miles on it so it is virtually still new. I was looking into getting NH oil undercoating done but think that doing fluid film myself will save me a ton of cash over the long haul? I’m...

I grabbed these wheels particularly for the weight savings! I put 285/75 on them and wanted to stay right around the same unsprung weight as the stock size 265/70 on factory steel as the new tires are heavier than stock. In hind sight I wish I weighed them in both configurations to see how close...

I noticed you’re in MA too. My truck started life in Florida came to Mass and out to CA before winter so the undercarriage looked like it did when it was on the dealership lot new! I pulled a 26’ camper with it from CA back here to MA in the Fall. One winter on these roads and the surface rust...

The lug nuts are the same open end 9/16-18 thread that are used with your steel wheels. I re-used mine when I switched wheels. I have about 500 miles on the new wheels and tires now and no issues. I did re-torque the wheels at 200 miles and they did take a little tightening. This is common with...

You are correct. 6 spoke was a 4th gen option not available with 3rd gen. Same specs however, so fitment and function on the 3rd gen shouldn’t be an issue if someone where to want to install them on their truck.

I can attest to the structural integrity of these wheels as well! They are certainly solid! They are a lot lighter weight and far better in appearance than the chrome clad rusted steel factory wheels that I replaced with them!

Good to know! Thanks for the update. I’ve started my quest to find out for sure when the change from US manufacturing to offshore took place concerning The wheels Alcoa made for Chrysler? I’ll post back if/when I know for certain!

Are these pics from the 6 spoke wheels? That’s interesting if they are, it was my understanding that Alcoa manufactured the wheels for Chrysler in the USA from 2005-2008/09 (3rd gen). The six spoke wheels weren’t available until 2010 (4th gen). Let me know because my information was gathered...

If they they have the AWFP then they are in fact forged aluminum manufactured by Alcoa wheel and forged products. As far as country of manufacture, there should be a stamping somewhere near the rest of the information stampings. For instance on the 5 spoke wheels that I have the USA stamp is...

The 1QR35TRMAA wheels are from 2010-2012. They have 6 spokes as opposed to 5. Cast aluminum I believe? Not forged and certainly not manufactured stateside. They both have virtually identical offset so fitment isn’t an issue and as far as I know 2500 and 3500 SRW came off the assembly line with...

That’ll most likely be the next phase of the project, The wheels and tires set me back a little so the side steps will have to wait. I’m on the fence about de-badging and leaving a matte black with gloss white Cummins emblem or leaving all of the badging but just changing them all to matte black...

I got the Banks black oblong slash cut exhaust tip from XDP today and installed it! Here’s some pics! I like the looks of it better than the sooty chrome one originally installed with the Monster Exhaust System. 1 more item checked off the list for the de- chrome operation! Working from the...

Thanks! I’ve had the black on for some time now and I don’t think I’ll be using the chrome! The wheels and tires really make it look like I had intended. Black slash cut exhaust ordered fro XDP yesterday! Can’t wait to change it out!

Some pics of the wheels with chrome and some with the black center caps for easy comparison

Hi guys, well after a week of having the new set of wheels and tires I couldn’t be more pleased with the look and the performance set up I chose to go with! Today I finally had a little time to take the center caps apart that I had painted to match the powder coat on the wheels. They were very...

500 is where I hope to be someday... GDP + Bigline here too! I also got the additional big line to replace the line from the frame rail! I’ve been looking into lift pumps and have it narrowed down to the GDP fuel boss and the Fleece in tank dual pump. GDP is the front runner right now! I had...
