21
5'8-9ish
215lbs
All lifts Raw...i wonder what i could do in a shirt or suit though :ninja:
Bench-was 315--now around 295
DL 495-Romanian Deadlift w/belt-no straps
Squat -405 wide stance for 6-8reps w/belt
Leg Press 1200lbs or 1020 sets of 8-10
Probably should just replace it. No sense re-coning something like that. For new speakers try Partsexpress.com (its a company in dayton, sell decent items)
I think parts express also has a surround repair kit.-if you wanted to fix your old vega.
How do you get their ears to stay up?
the picture with the bandage on the ear is why i wonder...I would like to get a boxer when im not a broke ass and get my own place
both trucks have engine changes in 2003. The ford switched from the 7.3L to the 6.0L. (2003 ford could have either engine) Dodge went from the 24valve vp44 injection pumped motor to the common rail cp3 injection pump. Both truck will be able to tow roughly the same. The dodges have horrible auto trannys and generally need rebuilt every 100-120k miles. Also the dodges will rust out first.
Ford-Pros
7.3L motor-responds well to mods
Good trannys auto and 6spd
Higher towing capacity than dodge
Engines last up to 500k before rebuild
6.0L engines have the torque-shift 5 spd auto tranny
King Ranch/Harley packages
Ford Cons
6.0L engine-Common injector/recalibration problems
Will respond good to simple mods-further mods will inlcude upgrading headstuds and futher work.
Usually high sale prices than dodge
Higher maintance cost
Dodge Pros.
Indestructable Cummins engine (on 98-02 avoid 53 block)
Cheap on maintance and intital cost
500-600k before rebuild--ive seen a 12valve (94-97) with 1.4mil miles
good 5spd tranny
Dodge Cons.
auto tranny
chrysler air conditioning
if 4wd--ive heard many people having problems always needing rebuilt
6spd tranny is good-but con because the company that made it went under and it is harder to find parts
Rust/poor metal
Overall the Ford will be the better choice.
Any aftermarket mods and the dodge is the winner.
My perfect truck would be a 97 12 valve (auto-suncoast tranny) 2wd reg cab shortbed.
