Redid my cockpit some. New switch panel and tidied up the electrical and other odds and ends like new shift boots. So nice.

Looks awesome, their kit is well thought out, seems to work great!

Sounds awesome! Love the plan! Can’t wait to see it at CM’23!

It's been on the lift for over a year at this point and I'm finally making progress thanks to a push from @HoneyBadger and Will. Here are the pictures of progress over the last year. So yea, thanks to those guys and @74fj40 for filling my coilovers today. Hopefully it'll at least be on the ground by Friday.

These are my initial mock-up of coilover hoops. Trying to get 2.5x16" monsters to fit under the hood.

Here is the geometry sorted out and an idea of the flex I'll have. The 37's are going to STUFF in the monster fenders I have.

And just a quick picture of the coilover brace. We knocked out a bunch of little brackets, painting and other various small bits. Having SolidWorks and a plasma table is super cool and allows me to make quick little parts. I had to move my fuel filter up 2.375" up as well as have a better bracket and routing for my 0 gauge power wires. Bill had them just zip tied to the brake lines...

Looks good. Let me know if you ever need a hand!

I haven't posted much in the last year, but the truck is almost ready for Moab. Hopefully I can get a shakedown run in before... Here she is flexing, but not flexed out entirely

Might suggest keeping Red Chili away from the shop during Jacket night, unless you want a lot of stickers on it.....

@Hulk i was going back through this thread and there are so many missing pictures. Is there any way to recover those?
