2006 Duramax 4x4 LBZ / 6 speed Allison
I have been looking to buy a diesel for a couple months... was planning on buying a Cummins / 6 speed manual truck. I was having trouble finding this combo in 4 wheel drive with a quad cab. I ran across a great year, 100% stock (06 - 360hp / 650ft tq LBZ 6 speed Allison) Duramax at a good price and couldn't pass it up!
Didn't have it very long before the modding started ;-) So far this is what I have done to the truck:
- Trans Go Jr. performance shift kit for the Allison
- 4" Custom Exhaust / single 5" Black MBRP stack (no muffler)
- Self tuned with HP Tuners (approx 100rwhp high rev / low tq increase tune... trans and TC tweaking)
- Edelbrock 1792 custom lift pump setup (Essex)
- BD Fuel filter setup ~ 2 micron (factory filter/housing/wif sensor delete)
- Homebuilt 3.5" Downpipe
- Homebuilt Intercooler pipes (both sides, EGR delete, Grid delete, 3" hot side)
- Homebuilt CAI (battery relocation) short piping, custom MAF flange, heat shield, scoop into fenderwell (AMSOIL filter)
- Black Moto Metal 951's (16x8)
- Edge Evo w/ EGT (only using for gauges)
- Autometer Ultra light oil temp
- Autometer Ultra light (carbon fiber) EGT
- ISSpro blue 30psi Boost Gauge
- PPE Stainless Tie Rod Sleeves
- Homebuilt Traction bars
- Extended shackles 6" to drop back 3" (to match front)
- Blacked out grill / emblems
- PCV mod (vent to atmosphere)
- Switched to 5w30 Mobile1 synthetic in the T-Case
- Harman/Kardon Drive + Play
- Garmin Nuvi 765t (widescreen, traffic, etc.)
- Cobra CB / short ant.
- Uniroyal LT265/75/16's (sad when that's larger than the stock tires)
- AMSOIL synthetic engine oil / AMSOIL Torque-Drive Trans fluid / Mobile1 Synthetic diff fluids / AMSOIL diesel librication additive
