My68ur8's Build

Well, I won't be home for a long time, lol. I took a year long contracting job here in Iraq. So I won't be home for good until Feb of next year.

But, I just ordered 5x TRD FJ SE gun metal wheels and a TRD CAI. I think we may end up with twin trucks, sort of, lol.

I am slowly ordering all of the mods that I want. It gives me something to do while I am here. I will be ordering the King 3" lift and supercharger/tuner soon! Then tires, TRD exhaust and some other goodies!

I do look forward to having a meet when I get back, though!

 

we will make it happen,

if you want help with the S/C install ( unless you are getting the dealer to do it) just let me know and I can help you out

Justin

 

Nice i like it

 

4/10/2010 update

Sport Grille and Weathertech wind visors added and I debadged the doors

Hopefully I can get the gauges and the DTRL kit in tomorrow

Justin

 

Sweet! Looks freakin' awesome!

Now it's time to change your plates?! lol

 

yeah I know

it will hold its own with other V8 trucks, but for some reason, every mustang on the road what to do a fly by one me

Justin

 

rcbs204 4x4 Switch Illumination installed ( if you are thinking about this, do it, its super simple and a great easy mod)




Justin

 

Hmmm, I will have to add this to my mod list (which is way too long now). Looks really good! I had to search for it cause I have never seen that one yet.

New update:

On Order :

Fabtech 6"
Icon Coilover
Alcans


And a few small things that I did ( or had some help wit) in the past few weeks

Redline Hood Struts


LED Swap in the cluster




and Next weekends project



I also finally cleaned it up today and got a coat on Zaino on it

I still need to decide on tires and wheels to go with the suspension setup

Justin

 

Nice! Was it a pain to install the hoodstruts? I just ordered some for my 6. I have never used a rivet gun before.

I can't wait to get home and mod the crap out of my truck and finish my 6.....

 

which is the cost of the complete installation of S/C ? need you another ECU, or stock ECU ?

niceeeeee truck! i envy you!

 

not bad at all. just follow the instructions.

this is my 3rd set, so it was a breeze

Justin

 

Installed myself, and I did not need to reflash the ecu since I installed the APR X1 with it

Justin

 

How thick is that wood and how do you plan on mounting it in there?

 

its 1/4" MDF and its wedged in there pretty good. I dont think I will need to actually mount it.

we will see though

Justin

 

Thanks. Good to know.

 

once I wrap it, it really wont move

I just need to get the gauges for it

Justin

 

looks good...I can't believe I missed this thread

 

keep an eye on it,

the suspension work starts next month

I should hold a little meet up at my place
