@dubdub20003 That looks amazing! Any pictures of the 12” sub without the cover?

Very cool to see this come to market. The keyless entry antenna range has gotten terrible over the last couple of years. I pretty much have to stand right next to the vehicle for the remote to work. Ordered 2x flip keys internal cut, global market up to 7/2002 with indicator flashing loom for...

You’re in 110–120 F weather, so some heat soak wouldn’t surprise me. These vehicles hold a lot of heat under the hood. I’d run at least 30k cSt silicone fluid in the fan clutch. There are plenty of threads on this in the 80 Series section see the quoted post. Do you have a scanner to check...

What are your coolant temps? What happens if you open the hood?

Great job! Did you go with the AEM Fuel Pressure Regulator kit from Elate as well? Interested to see how much boost you see with the 75mm at your lower elevation in Louisiana. Should see at least 7 I would assume.

Nice build! Talk to us about the hood vents. I’m thinking of doing something similar to reduce heat soak in the 100 degree Texas weather.

Very cool! It does seem that your 79 would allow for trailer to sit level. Matching color? Oh now I'm definitely intrigued.

That is one clean trailer and looks good behind the 80. How were the hubs during the trip? Still able to touch them after driving for a while? If you are looking to level it out a bit more after changing out the tires, there is a thread (link below) on steel soldiers on how to achieve a 2" drop...

Hey Obe12, what size pulley are you running to see 6–7 psi, 75 mm? I’m also in DFW so we’re at about the same elevation. I’m looking at a MaxxECU since I may swap in a Gen 1 8HP70 later, and it would also give me control over fueling and timing. I installed the 40gallon LRA tank earlier this...

Yeah that will work. I have a DW300 which is a 340LPH for when I install SC. Also upgraded injectors per Obe12’s image. You will also need a 1:1 rising adjustable fuel pressure regulator. What pulley are you going with? I plan to run 75mm which should net 7-8psi of boost. Also you will need...

I used a round 1” wooden stick that I had laying around. Tapped around gently. Cruiser Patch has a tool for this: https://www.cruiserpatch.com/products/toyota-4wd-ifs-cv-axle-seal-driver-special-service-tool-09550-00032-replica?_pos=1&_sid=597c9e3b5&_ss=r I would order and wait for OEM because...

That is a super clean trailer! I like the idea of using the cover once you arrive at camp! Good idea on tires. Mine were also very old so I went with 16” wheels from a chevy and installed 33” tires + spare.

Great to hear! I love these trailers. I have done just about every maintenance and basic item: bearings, shocks, wiring to 7pin, license plate light, the 3 MWOs, pintle to 365 articulating hitch etc. Reach out with any Qs. Do you still have the canvas cover? I used it a few times but the height...

I think that you’ll be fine on 35s and OEM rotors/pads. I would recommend Slee stainless steel brake lines though: Stainless Brake Lines - SLEE vs the others - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/stainless-brake-lines-slee-vs-the-others.1222531/ And a good brake fluid...
