Just thinking that this is pretty awesome that everybody here is actually doing what we're doing.
I personally would have never undertaken or even conceived of the idea for myself. Yet here I am.
Pretty excited to see all out builds eventually. Keep up the good work guys!

Yeah it is. Waiting on some updates on [MENTION=99584]ibd2328[/MENTION]'s build! And [MENTION=92839]MyFX4Project[/MENTION] is getting close too.

A friend who owns a shop will be installing my gears for me. 400 per axle and I'm supplying the parts. Half what I was quoted by another local shop! It's good to have friends.......and a boat to take friends out on.

Waiting on a few more parts. I traded in the 88# injectors and went with 105#ers.

Rails are on back order from lethal performance, so not sure what I am going to do about that.

Need to wire up the tranny controller, and plump up the tank.

After that, its all FI parts.

Awesome. Seen the 105's. That's a lot of fuel! LOL. I scored some more parts for me and ol' Jferg from JokerzL. Both of our lists are getting short. Did you ever send out the bolts to me? Or is this something I need MyFX4Project ' s advice on? Hahaha!

Take a look at www.rockwelloffroad.com. You've got some welding skills. Build your own.

And www.ruffstuff.com


And I'll take care of beer on the first night. I'll even throw in the matching camp fire.
