Joel's 4wd LT build

Nice Joel! Lookn pretty racecar under the hood

 

here's the link he sent me awhile back

http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/inde...e-1200-series-pump-conversion-kit-pk1240.html

 

Exactly what I needed. Thanks mang

 

i wasnt there for install so im pretty helpless as far as that goes.

 

Yee! We are all coming out to chase for Austin, he is racing the durty. Are you guys entering a truck?

You could say I am definitely in the market for a internal cage & saving money here and there. I can't afford to make it a top priority though. If 5k fell out of the sky and hit me on the head, I would be driving straight to Dirt Designs though.

Brian said it, check out lowrangeoffroad, the pulley was correct, it is a 7 groove just like stock but I had to press it on, literally nothing was assembled except the pump. The lines had to be trimmed a little but all the fittings went on just fine. Its pretty straight forward once you figure out what everything is. You could figure it out no problem, just have to think a little

The only hard part was mounting the pump. The mounts are close to stock but the bolt holes are different diameter (smaller) than stock so I had to drill them out to fit better bolts in there and we had to shim the pump backwards to keep the belt on the pulley. Idk if they have even listed this kit on PSCs site yet, they called ME asking what pulley I needed.

Thank you sir! battery relocated, k&n stickers, massive aluminium fluid reservoir... super charger... ah just kidding, sorry I am dreaming

You were there in spirit

 

I wAnt to know how the stock rack holds up! Only time will tell. Keep us updated. This is an absolutely necessary mod for rock crawling if it works out!

 

I wasn't going to say it but since you did...all you need is a supercharger

 

What Size Tires Are You Running?

 

I will say i have been driving it non stop since the install on saturday and all seems well so far. Definitly do not turn your wheels with 35s unless you are rolling. I think that is how i did so much damage to my first pump... Also hitting whoops does not help

One thing i left of the racetruck list was my cross over tube, i forget tacos dont come with that i think the cross over tube wouldnt allow for a super charger so my first upgrade would be gears and headers

35x12.5x17

 

See that's what I need to do...turn aired down 37s while stopped.

 

i couldnt imagine trying to drive with 37s and a blown pump.. 35s were a work out for sure.

 

35s and a GOOD pump still leave me with no steering assist on the rocks :/

 

Lol i remember you and i rocked no power steering for a while with blown racks, worst thing ever!

 

i can barley turn mine when its parked on dirt and turning... so yeah i get what you mean. the toyos i have now are significantly heavier than my bfgs i had before

yea that suuucked..


along with the price for all the parts and other BS.

 

Saw this pos leaving class tonight... haha happy bday joel lets ride some bikes soon now that u got that bronson!

 

so sick!!

 

how did u like the wheelers superbumps when you had them in the front? was it a very noticable difference?

 

How's the steering holding up?

 

Mint 400 was epic, we finished the race!!! 47th out of 150 with two major pit repairs required to keep going. Had to pull the radiator and JB patch first lap race mile 38 and then a loose AC line blew serpentine belt off and had to limp into main pit race mile 90 lap one very hot, got the belt replaced and an amber dust light remounted on the truck. Lap two was smooth sailing and only needed to top off on diesel and fuel in pit A and B before limping across the finish with the turbo making no boost. Austin had a nerf war and got three 30" light bars ripped off on course. GNARLY experience

Pit A #1890 Chase

Nerfed so hard we lost all dust lights and had both spares pinched into the backhalf rendering them useless on course.
