Here it is in the daylight. Everything is wired up, soldered, and heat shrunk. Going to need to fine tune the calibration on both and the tach needs a signal filter because the treating is erratic and way off. I used the marlin magnetic speed sensor for the speedo gear

 

Thats. Sick.

 

Nice!

 

Replaced the suspension on my ol recaro.
This was the factory suspension. 25 years old and the last 5 were rough

And the new kit that I bought in eBay

 

Nice work. how's that thing drive with the new suspension?

 

Not sure yet. Just did it this morning.

 

 

creative door pannels, i like!
the gauges look good too, did you have a mechanical reason for doing aftermarket gauges or did you just want to? just curious

 

Thanks Ben! Mechanical reason actually. There was/is a gremlin somewhere in the system and the dash lights would no longer come on at night. So I opted for something completely standalone from the factory setup. Because who likes chasing gremlins?

 

This is going to be my tow rig this season. 2000 F650 with a 7.3 and 6 spd manual.

 

I got quite a bit done this weekend

 

bed looks great man!
do your tires rub the front at full lock? your compression pic looks similar to mine and i can't turn the wheel w/o taking some fender with it

 

Thanks Ben. I am definitely needing to trim fender and possibly time cab.

 

Jelly of that tow rig.

Bed loooks gooood!

 

Thanks! Yeah, I'm kinda jealous of it too. It's not actually mine but I can use it whenever.

 

Did some poser flex Friday night. I wanted to see how well it would actually do.





Also finished the driver side door panel

And put in a spare carrier

 

Got the tow rig plated and insured yesterday. Also got all the building materials for our new shop offloaded from it. First run of the year is this weekend and I am looking forward to it!

 

Had a killer weekend at in BV. Ran Chinaman on Saturday and played around on Carnage yesterday. Most of the weekend is video, but there are a few pics.

That view! BV has to be one of my all time favorite places in CO

 

Those front springs look like they flex great!

 

They do great! Need shocks up there though... too bouncy and road manners suck with a full camping load
