memario1214's JAFR Build

I did some measurement myself and decided that I could still fit light bars on the BAMF bar even with the Raptor grille and my S/C intercooler. Check out the specs you are looking to buy before pressing the button, but you should be good to go. The only thing I am sort of concerned about and why I haven't pulled the trigger is the loss of airflow/increased temperatures. You don't have a lower bar blocking so you should be alright.

Possibly

You'll be the first to know if things are coming apart.

Well nothing set in stone by any means, but it is an idea that I am currently tossing around.

Yup. I work for the railroad and South Central Minnesota is my first location. We shall see where this job takes me. I am liking it so far, but there is SO MUCH to learn. Been working for this company for 7 months now and I still have no idea what's going on lol.

 

As an update... I have been crunching the numbers and just can't justify buying a new vehicle at the moment. My truck seems to be running much better now as well after I spent way too much time/money diagnosing and fixing issues. We are also experiencing terrible weather here and it is really nice knowing my vehicle and how it handles the conditions. For those of you who pounced on the chance to rip up my part out, you'll just have to wait for another day. We shall see where the road goes, but for now I am holding onto it. Knowing me I will probably start modding the sumbitch again

 

Thanks for the support everyone! This community certainly is a strong contributing factor to me sticking around here.

 

I got my bar from TRS. They don't make this bar anymore, but their new 10W bar officially releases Feb 1 and it is UHMAZING... They are already teasing it on their website if you want to go take a look.

Me thinks yours is sticking at the bottom and builds up enough tension to "pop" loose after you get going. I don't have any hesitation in my needle. I mean I guess mine sorta does if you take a look at my videos where I am going WOT... I guess I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but I don't notice any peculiar activity since the S/C install

 

It depends... how handy are you with power tools and at you comfortable tearing into things that don't 100% make sense all the time? Its not impossible by any means, but it certainly is a slow and tedious task the first time you do it. I'd say a 6/10 difficulty just due to the fact that you need to be meticulous if you want it done right.
