What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (71 Viewers)

[native1]

Stared at the rear of my 80 imagining the 4x4 Labs double swing out bumper installed that I ordered almost 2 months ago......

@Teddy -- built 80 getting towed by a 40 uphill? That must have been a crawl

Good to see cruiserheads taking care of their own!

Wasn't bad. That 40 runs like a champ. 2F powa!!!!

I know some will like this, some will flat out hate it. Personally I like it. Purely cosmetic mod.....mustang scoop.

Could it be functional if you wanted? I like the look.

^ I agree. I've seen worse. Plus, let's be honest, it's a beautiful truck no matter what.

 

[Teddy]

Yeah I cut that piece off completely before there was an opportunity to smash it

Natural selection at work.

Finally finished up at least two arms on each of my rock sliders. They are BEEFY but still need a 3rd arm in the middle.

Shipped my Rig to Colombia (south America)

Received my new armrests, these ones come with dual cupholders.

Winched my 80 on the trailer so I can take it for a custom exhaust hooked to my cxracing header. I want it done before I put the supercharger/intercooler back on so they can access from the top. Then I'll be close to finishing her up!

Ooooo! OK, how much for one of those!

Looks like $160 including shipping. They're incredible!

Installed another 10 hp and 20 ft/lbs of torque while increasing my mpg by at least 10%!

By putting on a brand new Wit's End sticker of course!

Made my windows go up smoother too! And smoothed out my idle while reducing driveline vibrations and drying up my oil leaks.

Of course, this is all due to the excellent engineering Joey's doing on the stickers!! Reduces wind drag and absorbs vibrations because of the quantum multipaxion of the quigglar matrix, or something like that...

Seriously though, used the new tire gage when reinflating after a trail ride and it worked awesome! Thanks for putting out a good product man!

I'm putting together the write up on the EGR Delete. I was a novice mechanic. I wasn't too sure about doing it myself. But I dove in head first. Easy peasy.

Looking forward to your write up. I hope it includes a parts list

 

[LS1FJ40]

You know...you are probably right. I see the inner belt has a bunch of chunks missing. Heard the notched belts suck. Time for new ones anyway..
Thanks!

Yes. Notched belts suck. Buy the OEM ones.

 

[LS1FJ40]

Looking forward to your write up. I hope it includes a parts list

Yes. It does. I started the write up last night. It's long. Some of the things are just not brief to describe in layman's terms. I want it to be easy enough for someone like me to understand. I'm a two banana mechanic at most. I spent probably 3-4 hrs just figuring out what words meant in other EGR delete write ups.

Detailed pics. Parts list. The whole shebang.

Haven't got mine yet. I should start a thread.

I moved my washer reservoir for some reason.

Some reason is better than no reason...

It definitely could be functional. Most overseas cruisers I've seen with the scoops are diesels and have the scoops to feed air to a top mount intercooler. Without an intercooler the only function would be to draw air into the engine compartment for cooling. If that's the goal you're probably better off with louvers or cowl induction that lets hot air escape from the engine compartment rather than trying to displace the hot air with more air.

In either case you'll need to cut a hole in the hood obviously.
