it will fit on a auto tranny truck.......as far as the pulse vacuum hubs, it won't work on them.....i think it was '98-mid '00 that had them...

If I remember correctly you will need to get some rotors from an 01-03 truck. I don't think the RCD will work with the larger rotors from the new trucks.

33's on a 6" lift.......




personally i think 33's on a 6" lift looks the best.......35's on 8"-9" IMO......but there are a lot of people who like the stuffed tire look for some reason....
