Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

I’m still waiting to see one set up as the primary tank.

 

My old welding/ fab sweater. Wife got me some fr long sleeve shirts after I caught on fire a few times. I still keep this for just working in the shop when it’s cold out though.

 

It would look exactly like this but with the stock tank removed

 

ha ha ha… well I know that! Oem sender or retrofitting something else in?

 

Finally got a weekend off 100% no bs so gonna go play with this thing tomorrow. Dorking around after work i wanted to see where i was at with the stock fenders. For anyone interested these are skinny 33’s with 4.5 bs. Tire was hitting the shock with about 5 inches of shaft left and glancing top of flares. Seems accurate enough and gave me a way better idea of what i need and want to do next

 

Sad I'm one of the few 2nd gens at the meet full of third gens. This 1st gen got my best in show vote. Thought you guys would appreciate these

 

First real drive on the new steering setup. Steering is much much lighter and feels great.

This pleases me

 

Speaking of things that please me.

A couple more things to button up but after 8 weeks hogging my garage, Betty white is drivable again.

 

Got a few shots of our customer's truck that we just built up and I got to take a couple shots in the woods with him as well. Full JD LT/lca relocation in the front, and archive garage stuff in the back. 35's of course.

 

How much lift did you need to fit the 35’s?

 

Wouldn't you like to know

 

Doesn’t rub if you lift it high enough. Everyone knows that.

I searched for that in an incognito tab because I was scared someone might find out one day when all our interweb data is made public.

 

You know a guy wheels when he leaves his u-bolts uncut

 

probably left room to add a three inch block later

 

Wife approves of the Howe pump as well. Just made her get some more seat time as I chase down some slight weeping at 2 of the lines. She sent her a little too hard haha. I’m not used to being a passenger but we hit a g out/ jump hard enough to throw the visors down upon landing and skin my elbow off the door panel. No damage to the truck. She scared the crap out of herself but we were all good other than the small amount of blood spilt. But we got back and said she really liked the steering. Just trying to get her some seat time before thanksgiving because she’ll be driving the truck while I’m on the bike

 

Took Dahli on her first trail ride today. She enjoyed it! I don’t think the truck goes any slower than that, but the boss lady wouldn’t let me go any faster


JD LT is baby and baby momma approved!

Lines going into the rack wet? Mine have been like that since the start.

 

The line going into the rack and then both lines at the pump. Think I might be down to just the return line to the pump. But with where I mounted the reservoir, I think I would be better off with 2 45° fittings vs the 90 at the pump and straight at the reservoir. Adjusted again after this ride and will check again this week after some more testing. Nothing major though.
