Default questions

Ok going to pick up a 96 1500 6.5td today. And there's some parts and questions I'm looking for.

1st I'm wondering about headers or torque tubes. Haven't seen any anywhere.

2nd i want too put a 2 in body lift but they say don't put them on diesel.

And iv got a few more questions but I can't think of them now, thanks in advance.

no one makes headers for a 6.5, you could have a set custom made but thats $$$$$. they do make exhaust systems though. cant do a body lift because it messes with the cooling system. your going to have to get a lift kit or just crank the t bars.
