I FIND IT COMICAL THAT YOU ARE STILL USING SUN SHADES. THE DASH AND INTERIOR MUST BE PRESTINE.
No s***tin'!!! That's like washing a cow just before it goes out to the pasture to die.
 
The rubicon with @Bimrunner in his 80. Pretty sure I'll have him converted by the end of the wheeling season! :flipoff2:

Was two weekends ago but figured I'd update.

Added BlueSea dual USB to rear cup holders. Added padding all the way around to keep it quiet and keep it from marking up the plastic. Added 3rd hole so all 3 screws can be used.

View attachment 932304 Oh and trying to finish up this little project while I wait for other crap to be delivered.

Even in it's crippled stage, you're STILL adding more to it...... I think there's a few cubic inches left under the hood on the left side, right in front of the firewall..... Better find something to fill it!

Will the distributor cap hit the end of the battery?

I've been accumulating pieces for exhaust so the over heating issue is on hold for a hot minute until it all gets here. Until then I can start checking off other stupid s***. Truck is driveable :flipoff2:

It's the 31M and fits within the stock battery tray. Why would it hit the distro cap?

And yes, that area you are mentioning is the coolant filter but I'm holding off till I get temps squared away. :P
 
I thought from the diagram that the 31M was way outside the existing battery tray. I continue to be amazed by all the things you've done to it and that there is anything left to do.....

Mine is not driveable while I replace the radiator and all coolant related parts. I'm also going to rebuild the front axle at the same time.

What it really amounts to is jealousy that you get to do all this cool crap to yours while I am still trying to baseline after 2 years of ownership.....
 
Saw the pics in Ben's thread. Looks like a good time. I'll have to tag along next time. Just give me more than a 18hr notice :flipoff2:
Liar :flipoff2:
 
actually, yes, they are ;) gotta keep the evil heat out. i did finally upgrade my sunshades after being taunted by a buddy for what i had in there.
 
I finished up installing sound deadening. First day I got as far behind the rear seats so I could put the front carpet and interior back in. Drove to work and it was noticeable quieter and the floor heat from the tranny is non existent. Still have some TC whine coming through but not bad. May try to stick some on the shift levers to see what that does. Last night finished the rear but now I'm off to Minneapolis for work so no test drive until Monday.
 
Nuff said...

Your gas gauge looks an awful lot like mine...
do you have the same gas gauge i have? i see musthave apparently does.

on a tech note, i've adjusted my float so the light now comes on with approx 3 gallons left. is there a thread on where other folks read? i'll be anxious to see where fat bastard II comes on
