That rig is so badass. I would kill to have a 1HD-T with a manual trans.

David,

Your truck stinks and I think you need to get rid of it (to me) right away!

AWESOME JOB!!

Keep up the good work!

 

[Tapage]

Thanks mates ..

Not a reall off road rig ( not yet .. ) it's my DD and my mall queek .. but you never when the off road time comes ..

BTW the manual tranny it's one of the best big $$$ and time that I ever spend on one Cruiser ..

Awesome ride, this was the first time I've read an article twice! So many cool things that are or look factory, cooler in center console & rear, grab bar, elec rad fan, and then while reading the winch install is when the wife asked what I was drooling over. I admire your effort to keep the factory look, all those shifter consoles to get it perfect, a salute Hope you have a bad ass alarm system, I'd die if someone rode off with my truck after that much work.
Couple of questions, what is the little accessory thing below the speedo that I think says Black Ice? and the other gizmo box to the left of the gauge pod? Also a straight thru 3 inch side exit exhaust, WOW. Maybe with diesel not so loud?

Again a Great Tech Article and good pics.

Thanks ... I need to adda vid on this thread now that she have the manual H150 .. still working on it ( when finish my hydro assist in Tencha .. )

The greddy think close to the auges pod it's my turbo timer .. was so much more needed when was auto .. but it's still there and will keep clean and cool my turbo ..

Already fix the missing botl at the bumper winch connector ..

not sure which it's the other thing that you where askinig close to my speedo .. ? ( maybe my inside outside temp sensor .. )

[panamacruiser]

Here is the last 2009 upgrade .. ( yes .. a bit late the pic but .. )

wheelskin .. decide to switch all back to black ..

Looks like this year will be the house year ... so I don't think I will see much Cruiser upgrades this year ..
