Ghost848's "The Whore" Build

Maybe if you were around geeze

 

This month has been more of a gong show then usual. Always short on time it seems...lol

 

Well guess the local guys established a beer night last wed of the month

 

We should all organize a weekend trip on of these day. Big Red Deer convoy to somewhere.

Bumper is looking good buddy.

 

Its up on the block as we speak trying to figure how i can make this work lol damn you truck to hell!! WHORE!!!!

 

Bahahahahhahaha....hahahahhaahahahha... Bahahhahahahhahahah.....
Omg what have i done...

 

I see an angle grinder in your future...

 

Yeah... Just realized that second pic made em look allot bigger than they actually are lol

 

City plowed today and left no room on the road and took my parking.... Well like a BOSS!!!

 

Well if this doesnt make you feel good about dealing with ecgs i dont know what will. First diff i changed had some some noise and pinion play that i found, i called ecgs they sent me a new one no questions asked. Second diff i broke in and did first fluid change, now i have a noise again. So i called ecgs again. Told them i broke it in properly, what fluid i used, and how its always after second fluid change its makin noises again. Chase at ecgs said, i didnt even ask, we will send you another one, but you dont use that royal purple shit in the diffs. That has git to be the worst gear oil ever made.... Im in awe and am very thankful for ecgs being a awesome company and i will recommend them to anyone!

Diff swap in my future.... Again lol oy.

 

Just got home from a diff breather mod, fine tuning front bumper and changed fluids in tranny and tansfer case, put lucas 75w90 in the tranny... My god what a difference that made compared to royal purple. It actually changes gears!!

 

Lookin good, I've heard that royal purple is garbage too. I use Lucas and redline for gear and engine oil.

That's awesome that ecgs keeps replacing it, those aren't cheap suckers to keep shipping back and forth.

 

Thanks man, im not meaning to take advantage of them. I initially called them to trouble shoot. I ended up getting a diff out of it on there behalf. Now i have a buddy waiting and dieing to install his arb locker...going to do a one night bender to install both

Side note upon research, putting 35's on the truck requires lots of removal including fender wells. Thus in turn opening up the area to my air intake, so dodging a bullet, bough safari snorkel. Should be here in a couple weeks

 

35's and a snorkel!

 

Spent the day on it today, not much visually but lots of work.
- redo winch kill switch
- hook up winch
- rewire dual battery tray
- hook up in cab winch control
- trouble shoot why cb radio not working





And proof i have diff fluids recommended from ecgs

 

Well after work walked out and saw some spots in the snow.... oh no!!! I had a bad axle seal but didnt know it was this bad... Well time to fix it this is what she looked like



Had to fdo a fluid change anyways so it worked out i guess...
No more leaks new gear oil and i did an alignment too now i drive strait!!!! Bahaaaaa

 

How do you like those eagle alloy 100 series wheels?!

I've been wanting those for quite some time now. I almost squeezed the trigger on a set but then an employee at Americas Tire said they might make my tires rub (265/75R16 BFG AT KO).

Have you had any issues?

Do you have any front pics to show offset? I'm curious how far my tires will poke out with that -20mm offset.

 

In post 66 there is a pic. Its a 285/75r16 the tire next to it is a 315. I like them and i personally dont see any issues with a 265 tire. My only complaint is that they are close...... Very very very close to the calliper. 1/8- 1/4 of an inch
Its -40 out im not going out side if i dont have to lol

 

You first post needs updated

 

Lol yeah im waiting on diff swap and probly waiting till i get my other goodies on
