Forgot about this thread until I looked through my old subscriptions and figured I'd post a couple current pictures since it's changed quite a bit

Have you done anything to protect your ECU from getting flooded? It looks like it would be soaked in those pics.

Yeah I removed the plastic retainers on the harness for the ECU and there's enough slack that you can relocate it directly behind the glovebox. You could even put it in the glovebox for better water protection but I chose to put it behind it and against the firewall. Kept running in those pics.

Nah that's not the ford I hit. That's probably rotted away to nothing in a junkyard somewhere if it hasn't been through a crusher. The winch went on after the accident.

Guess I'll be buying the trailgear 4" front and rear springs sooner than expected. I snapped a rear leaf spring this morning by backing out of a parking spot at the bank. I limped it back home about 25 miles tonight in a snowstorm. Fun.



It snapped clean at the ubolts... weird.

Jeez the re-emergence of this thread was a little shocking. I thought someone nailed the truck that you worked hard to rebuild.

Thankfully no, I figured this would make a fitting build thread so I just update here.
