I bought DA BUSs` EX.
Mods so far, Bilsteins, Home made Tymar, sway bar, airbags/ compressor, trans gauge and gauge pod for pyro and boost. I straight piped it but man is it loud with a load, might be putting the magnaflow back.
Da Bus put on Bendix industrial brakes, what do you guys know about these? I had trailer with a 7K load on it and had trouble stopping ( thought the pedal was going to go thru the floor!)
My work van (2500 Chevy) same trailer no problems stopping (trailer brakes are broken)
Secondly, the truck floats quite a bit with a load, well see what kind of issue that will be , I`m picking up a 12K boat/ trailer on Sunday and driving 4 hours home.
Custom light bar coming Monday!!

Thanx!
Well it tows like a champ, bouncy with 30psi in the bags but all that about stopped with about 60psi.
Lie-o -meter (which actually was pretty accurate when I hand calculated the one time)
Had me at 23mpg empty all highway and 14mpg towing
I think thats probably about 4-5mpg too high
