Ordered a muffler from baxter yesterday, its basically an off brand thrush weld muffler. My friend put one on his toyota with a 3.0 and it sounds good.


Also he got a Chicago electric 230v welder, we were practicing on some scrap with it, and it works really well for being from HF. It does good penetration.

Why did you put those plugs on your door wiring? There's a factory plug behind your kick panel.

 

[Bennybooster]

Well its disconnectable right in the door jam now, and I didn't know there was a plug farther up......whoops

 

[kris97ranger]

I woulda done the same thing it's just easier there. Rather then having to dig furrther up and re run the wires back thru the holes everytime you switch. But I'm lazy

What'd you do with the rubber boot deal? I undo the rubber boot from the cab side, then unplug the electrical behind the kick panel and push the plug through the hole and pull my doors off. To reinstall just install doors with pins, push the plug through the one hole, plug it in, and push the rubber boot back into the cab portion.

I know it doesn't really matter. Just sayin my process. haha

right now with the door off the boost just hangs out, I havnt wheeled it like this yet. And when I put it back together the boot just tucks back in. I am going to mod the brackets so that my doors just lift off. Then I need to figure out what to do with the hanging wires. Then I need to make either some cut up doors or some tube doors.

Putting a hold on the truck for a bit, I'm re-building my BMX bike after I parted some of it out like a year and a half ago. Its going to be like 250 to get it back on its wheels, and a few hundo more to give back all of the borrowed parts and a few hundo after that to get it where I really want it

 

[Bray D]

Shizah. Part out the rest of it and buy a new bike. lol

 

[Bennybooster]

[Bennybooster]

I got some stock XJ coils, 14in free length. I'm hoping to get the same stock height with softer coils.....and the good part, only 10 bucks

 

[kris97ranger]

[Bennybooster]
