It does look pretty tight in that bay. How's it taking apart and outing back together?

If they were EME you might be dissolving in a 55 gallon drum right now. Nice scam...

Time for a quick update.
Here is the KRC Pully system and power stearring pump. The warter pump is a Stewart stage 4 water pump. It pumps 120 GPM @ 48 PSi. I need the high volume and pressure to pump the water to the raidator located above the engine and in the rear of the truck. The High PSI is to break through any steem pockettes that may rear there ugly head when running it hard.

Image


Here is the installed 4 inch Air Bump stops on the front end. The Fox Bump Stops will be pressurized some where around 250 PSI with Argon. Why Argon? Argon has a larger atom then Nitrogen and is a true inert gas unlike Nitrogen that is realy close. Nitrogen causes the oils in a shock to foam. But it is less expensive. But since I have Argon I'll use it. Other wise I would need to get a tank of Nitrogen.

Image


Image


This is the front end at full bump. I limited the front to 13 Inchs of wheel travel on the front end.

Image


Here is where the spair tire will be located on the back of the truck. I only took about 6 hours to come up with the final location. I had to work it around the batterys that are located dirctly under it. The Raidator is a CBR 3 core duel pass 16" X 32" It is rated up to 1100HP for BTU displacement. It also has duel electric fans.

Man that's a thing of beauty! I used to do a bit of desert racing in So Cal 20 years ago and was always amazed at how fast the built trucks could pass me on my Honda XR at 80 mph. And a little jealous. Okay, murderously envious. I probably shouldn't look at your posts and blog anymore, I think my wife would do a Lorena Bobbit if I started something like that. :naughty:
