I have always owned a dodge but I found a deal on a 2002 3/4 ton chevy 6.0L LS, 86,000 miles paid $12,500 from a small dealership. How did I do? Anything in the way of problems I should be aware of? Anyways I would like to stick a set of tires on her looking at Dunlop MTRs 265 75 16 will they work? Also a flow master dual exit exaust do they make it for this truck? And a Voulant air intake? Any other suggestions

I'm jealous. I spent the same amount on mine this past January.

 

sounds like a good deal. You will like the Volant, as well as the flowmasters. Then I would look at TBS, some of the free mods, some headers, and custom tune. Not sure about the tires as I don't know 2500 very well, but I think they should fit as my stock tires were taller than that.

 

265/75 is going to look tiny on that truck, but they'll fit... my buddy has one of those and his 285/75's still look too small for that big ol truck

 

265/75r16 will fit fine 285/75r16 will fit but will rub a little from what i have heard dont know why 285s fit on a 1500 but rub on a 2500 but thats what i keep on reading and hearing.

 

Based on what I've read the 265 75 16 MTR tires should work without rubbingand look better than the stock. Hope that is the case just looking for confirmation. Also I can't find the flowmaster dual rear exit exhaust for this truck, do they make a kit for it?

 

Yes 265s will fit with no rubbing. As far as the exhaust i would just go to the exhaust shop and seen what they have for your truck. Worse case you can get two single in single out mufflers.

 

You got a great deal.
I paid $12,995 for my 03 eclb 2500 hd w/t with 95k on it. It did come with many options, like cruise, tinted windows, skid plates and limited slip rear.
As for 285/75/16s on a hd. They fit fine. You will have to trim the back edge of the lower valance on the front bumper. It took me less than 5 min to do both sides with a sharp box cutter.

My truck came with a whole bunch of options, but its not an HD so I think 265's will have to do unless I crank up the torsion bars. How can you tell if it has the limited slip?
