I just read this thread from start to finish. I love the before and after its unreal the transformation you've done. Sorry to hear about all the problems you've been having. hopefully they get all sorted out soon and you can enjoy your truck problem free. One question I have is what rear bumper are you running? Is it a ADD product?

YO! sorry i havent been checking in on the forum lately. the round lights that completely block the airflow to the Full-Race intercooler which heat soaks the A/C condenser and makes my A/C blow warm? those are chinese hella copies. they're HID and work well, just don't get sick of them, throw them around the shop for a month, and then try and re use them. they don't hold up. $400 for the set of 4

This has gotta be one of the nicest builds I've seen by far... So much invested into it, must've been tough to be away from the truck all that time but overall looks amazing man

Well Fellas,
i see a lot of threads that fizzle or just become a cliff jump ending. I am sorry i havent checked in, and i love that y'all have sub'd and had some guilty-pleasure amusement. i have to say- if theres one thing i am glad about, its that i learned a ****-ton along the way. If I were to do it again, say, when I'm 65 and my kid is done with college, i know what to do and not to do. (if i don't forget )

I have been driving the truck for a few months now, finally got some finishing touches on it like a mexico-ready GPS, race radio, tire mounts, dust lamps, and even a LED backlit headliner which is on the border of cool and TJ special. When we went to the NORRA 1000, our class 1 race buggy was in the top 5 and 1st in class when we lost the transmission. What a fun race! played drums with a local band in Loreto, met the president of NORRA, who, as it turns out, is married to my childhood babysitter. TRIP! anyhow. its running well, and i gotta say, the Full-Race EFR twin turbo upgrade combined with the tune, water/meth, and the intercooler have it making over 500hp... 510hp or so.... and 580lbs TQ. I can't stress enough how amazing the 37" BFG K02 tires are. smooth on the highway, and hardly spin in the soft stuff. amazing.

the current mod is a stock rear center console becoming a bonified ice chest!!!

the 3M wrap has lasted about 6 months outside. it was in the shop for the other 6 months. its looking like a rat-rod pre-runner!

the next steps are unfortunately big ones. I want to re locate my intercooler to the OEM location. being a desert truck, having it up high just doesn't work well. lots of high RPM with little forward movement across the fins. anyone want to buy a slightly used Full-Race intercooler? PM me!

I also need to get SOME kind of inner fender well. I'm thinking about the boatec setup. So- if anyone wants my front fenders, PM me too!
