I don't have an excuse. Just felt under the weather for a couple months, and haven't accomplished anything on the '95 dodge. I have some radical changes in mind, but at this point I know they won't get done by spring, so I'll probably just rebuild the trans and wheel it 'till next winter.

^Spill the beans broham!! Excited to see what you've got going and planning.


I registered the SOB today... $300-ish

Then went and changed out the front diff fluid and gear checked since the July install. All is goodie. Very happy with the mesh pattern. No particles on the magnet at all. Put the aftermarket cover on.

Looking good WK as always! Are you sayin your truck registration is 300ish?
I like the diff covers your got on it! What is the size on the hose that you put over your ARB lines? I like that idea and may do the same thing. Did you run then all the way to the compressor or just shield the lines under the truck?

Thanks guys.

Yes. a smidge over 3 bills for renewal. I have vanity plate so that is a kick, but the major kicker is a weight fee. All open bed trucks are treated as commercial. With a topper on, the weight fee is gone or greatly reduced.

The hose is just standard 3/8" ID air hose. Ran it all the way to within the last 6-10" of the compressor. Extra heat protection.

Default Rear Bump Stops

Unbolted the factory ones.

Mocked up the factory bump with an outrigger bracket. Seems simple enough.

By the time it's said and done, it'll be a truggy. Planning on running a triangulated 4 link in the rear, which will allow me to get rid of 2 feet off the back. Already took 13" off the front, got rid of the fenders, doors, windshield, and bed.
