When I added a power brake booster ( amazing how much that helped) I plumbed it into the back port on my sniper . Same port I had my pvc valve going to . Anyways last night I finally decided to add the new fitting I had to the front and actually connect my pvc again. I used an -6 line and fitting just to go with the rest . I then decided to actually finish my hydro assist . So today I called Redhead and got a new steering box coming that is tapped for hydro . I will tack the ram up and cycle everything but it looked good when I held it up . I should have some other junk showing up tomorrow so maybe I can get a little done again soon . One thing that I am for sure doing is swapping out the trans and transfer case And will then move the engine back a few inches . But that won’t be for another month or 2 . For now it’s small projects. A hour here and there . Aww and I noticed BTB sells a heater that replaces the stock heater but you do not need the blower fan on the firewall. So I am thinking maybe . We will see. If I figure out a good spot to move my battery I would prefer to keep the oe stuff .

On my Orion ? I will just have to find something new to put it in I want a SWB45. and i have enough parts to build one almost . I was hopeful that the TP one would be ok . But I dunno . Maybe have to get the aluminum one .

TP's cost is not in line with the product IMO.

So I do not like where my fuel filter is . I have to take my center council apart to get to it and that is a pain . So I got a good filter I can mount . This will go inside the underseat tool box . I also go the sniper pdm. This will be nice for some things coming up . My redline hood struts did not show up . Maybe tomorrow.

Well I actually went in the garage today for a little bit . And I did something . It’s just tacked in but I cycled the steering and everything was good so that is a plus

Ok it was off about 3/8 and was bugging me so I just came out and fixed it. Elsie thinks it will do

 

[peesalot]

No, thats her look after seeing the SAS thread pop back to the top, they are relentless.

Glued the ram mounts on and heard Elsie barking . Found these at the door

 

[Firemedic831]

I like them

I've been considering some struts, but it's already hard enough to reach the hood when open.

I need to change the upper link mount still and then I can repaint the axle and be done with it .
