Towin with the crew cab!!?? U better stop by with that setup! :thumb:
All loaded up FINALLY...I had good intentions of stopping on the way up Adam, right now I just want to get to my camper and SLEEP....

Heck of a list Dave!
I've been chipping away at our list too.
Always more to do than time allows...:whistle:

A lot more than what was on that list too...I ended up putting a brake controller and fixing a bunch of hack wiring on the CC to be able to tow with it.


Awesome work Dave! keep at it, you'll get 'er done.

I did too Kert, about 12 hours later than I thought it would be today...pretty much started about 8"30am, it almost 2am now....didn't stop for lunch or anything,.....I can barely walk, but if I can make it to the CC, I"ll get there!

I hear that.. There is a bunch of stuff on my list I'm not getting done. But it shouldn't effect wheeling!!!

If all goes well I'll have my junk loaded on the trailer tonight :thumb:

See ya tomorrow hopefully Jess!

Nice work Dave! Get there, pop a cold one, sleep it off and git'r dun!!!

Hope you guys have a great time this weekend!
 
so now I find out my drop base air cleaner won't work, which means different fittings for fuel lines at the throttle body...fok me!
going to have to try and find them tomorrow somewhere??? No Summit in my neighborhood, but there is a Lane Automotive speedshop about 50 mi away?
We'll see what I can find tomorrow.
In the meantime here is the accel cable linkage hookup I came up with. A quadrajet stud, cut down and rethreaded to fit the FAST throttle body.

A pic of the throttle body and wiring, lacking fuel lines still.
And the MSD mounted inside the cab. I think that will get redone in the future as well, already not liking the placement of it.

They make a spacer for the top of the Throttle Body and all you do is lengthen the all thread to hold the air cleaner down. I had to use it on mine. Rig is looking great!!! Have fun this weekend!!!!
 
Have a great time this weekend! I'm excited to see pics and hear the stories.... :waytogo:

What kind of snake is that?

Martin

Blue racer...about 6' is my best estimate while trying not to piss him off....he wasn't real aggressive, and being they eat mice, I was just wanting to move him off into the field. he got the hint!

thanks Sean, once I heard it run again, I was on a mission to get there!

I knew they were avail Mike, I thought I had my issues figured out and then I went to hit the throttle and the throttle arm hit the a/c base as well....Luckily I found a new Jegsflat base a/c assembly I had laying around that had a questionalble filter in it, I put my K&N in it and
some new all thread stud and its good to go!
Got lucky on that one at the last minute.

Have a great time this weekend! I'm excited to see pics and hear the stories.... :waytogo:

Greg did you check out the Dunefest thread?




bag him up and give Dueling a present.
That would have made Adam scream like a little girl!!!

Bart give up about 6mpg towing...oof. that was at 60mph. just wouldn't do any more with out the pedal to the floor. So far the CC pulls better off the line, but the 99 6.0 does better hauling it down the road.

The Maiden was a blast to hit full throttle now...no hesistation, no coughing, just flat out hauls ass to the 5500 rev-limiter on the FAST computer.
We had a quicky drag race down on the wet lowland area, the Maiden w/ Jesse' and all 4 seats full, Toner91, and Brian (swetty) afterwards I thought "not once have I regretted putting the BBC, and T400 in this" its true!
For the heavy pig that it is, it hauls ass!
That heavy got me in a jam too, slid down a hill and was headed for some trees, so I stopped where I was, and some Jeepers doubled up to pull me up the hill....so I'm on the throttle lightly to keep forward momentum, and was pulling both Jeeps down towards me from the flat top of the hill....they had to back up 3 times cuz the Maiden was wanting them to join us!
Oh and found a new hood ornament on Sunday too. Some random bikini girl was running around, so I asked her to jump up on the hood for a pic!

Maiden looks great and I'm glad it ran good!!
That looks like a real exspensive hood ornament, I'll take it off your hands when you get bored with it! Lol Nope, don't want! I already have a older model that cost me a lot of money!!!:whistle:
