New to me - FZJ80 on 40's

[stevezero]

where will you mount the crane to winch the spare on and off the rear end?

 

[jamesurq]

It's only 130 lbs.

Two people it'll be fine. Won't be fun with one person - but doable I bet. I guess I could also hook a come along to the roofrack to help a little.

 

[lt1fire]

That't not too bad, my mounted xml's where a little more than that.

Doable with one or two people easily.

sorry I must've missed it but what caused you to go with MAPECU vs AEM or other piggyback setups that have been done?

And your spare was mounted where? Surely not on the swing out of a rear bumper.

 

[lt1fire]

In the rear of my truck actually, once one the roof rack that I had for 2 months before I had to sell it and my spare for $$$ but after my stint working with tractor trailer and AG tires 4x4 tires are nothing lol. All with how you get it off the ground.

A 130 lb tire would be doable by themselves by a few in the club and any two club members would be able to do it doesn't matter which two it is.

Tried and failed with both AEM infinity 6 and an Emanage Ultimate.

 

[jamesurq]

Getting close. Maybe 2 weeks out.

So does the hood shut ?

 

[jamesurq]

Wideband is losing signal
CX racing intercooler heat exchanger has holes in it - presumably from removal/install... Getting a better replacement. Thankfully that's not that expensive.
But... IT'S RUNNING!!!!!

 

[GLTHFJ60]

And DRIVING!! Holy cow!!!! Nice work!!

 

[jamesurq]

hopefully he can figure out the wideband quick, get the new heat exchanger installed and throw a tune on it and I'll be good to go.

Also needs two O2 sensors

 

[jfz80]

Shoot. Thats not bad.... Should Only take 2 weeks or so

(We get to start over again, right?)

 

[NCFJ]

Watch out, the Humor Police are watching..........

Looking forward to see this beast up and running.

 

[David70FJ40]

It lives!!!!! Happy for you!

 

[lt1fire]

So i've never been one to name vehicles or get in to that game but I must say if this was mine I would consider breaking that rule and naming it Two Weeks. You may want to check to see if 2 weeks is available at the dmv for a plate.

 

[David70FJ40]

How about "Two Weeks?".

 

[Rice]

With enough boost some driveline parts are going to be "Too Weak" but "Biscuit" suits it well.

TWO WKS
