    So the compressor, manifold, third member, and everything else that goes with them will be here tomorrow.


    :woot:






    still working on the mount for the compressor though. I made a template out of cardboard and it will work perfectly (as long as the compressor really is the dimensions listed on arb's website). But when I cut out my template on an old street sign and started bending everything the way it needed to go, I realized that I had drawn it backwards.. So as long as the compressor is the size I've been expecting, Tomorrow I'll cut out the template again without the legs, then do the legs seperately and rivet them to the base.

    It'll all make sense in a few days... :D



    Today I actually woke up and was pissed off about the 4wd problem and was like "f*ck it.. I want to put it back to stock and get something else" but then I read N0RTH's build on lunch break and it got my mind back on track.. :thumbsup:

    Thanks man!!

    Still have a long ways to go.




    Ended up sending the compressor back to get the ckma instead. Half the size, easier fit. Gonna probably swap out the 3rd member tomorrow, comp will be here Wednesday. Ordered a softtopper last night. Hoping to sell my UWS box soon. Thinking of selling my headunit and getting an alpine headunit instead.

    swapped out the 3rd member today to install the ARB rear locker. Not a bad install. ran the air line so when the compressor gets here it'll be set to go.

    Yesterday I installed all my skids for the first time. Had to wait for a custom transfercase skid. I'll post details when I take pictures.

    I'm going to wait till spring/summer (I hope)

    but I think I'm going to jump up to 35's and the appropriate gearing but I will do a lot of research and talk to a lot of people first.
