45 lpb...w/mitsubishi diesel

[wdukes]

Just couldnt help it. This picture looks so good and I am so lucky to have this rig. A very good guy in Brigham City(M. Bradshaw), helped me get back into a lpb. After not running in years, this thing is a breathing beast....400ci diesel. Next up are racks for paddleboards and a canvas top for the dogs. 33 x 10.5s

2" body lift. Pretty sure they had to do that to fit the diesel. Its so big, both batteries were originally on the front bumper...they are now in the bed.

Pics of that engine?

Will do....Today I finished up some work on the bed. Engine is too big for batteries, so I routed battery lines to truck bed. Sanblasted bed, hit with liner and today I mounted this ammo box. Also started "welding" on my new rack.( I am teaching myself)

Engine, interior, HFS bumper.....engine is so tight that a fan is on outside of the radiator. That being said, these things run so cool, I have never seen the fan run.

Wow, as far as 45 engine swaps, this one look's pretty good.

My intention was to put in a 2F, but this install was done so well, its staying for now.
