Everything ready to tig up.
And installed
And here is a sound clip of the finished product
I’m pretty happy with the results. The stainless should last a good long while and the truck honestly isn’t that loud.
Hey, so I am still alive... and still DD my Lj78!
Its been awhile, my truck has changed a bit. I should probably start uploading more to "build" Thread :rofl:
Some recent adventures...
I think you are on the right track
If you wanted to go the route of custom housing, I have a spare housing that we could model up to fit a larger t-stat. Then I’m sure @Jarrat could machine.
Thank you thank you thank you!
So I checked my connections and they all checked out. It was really oily so I hit it will some cleaner. That didn’t solve the issue. Checked the ohms... over 14!!
