    About to pull the trigger on an LCE dual comp clutch kit, lightweight flywheel, and LCE headers since it's all on sale. Need to get this old girl driving again before the fuel goes bad in it..

    That's what im hoping for! We'll see how it likes the lightweight flywheel since i've got big tires and its heavy. Not sure what to expect. Most folks go with the heavy one, but i think it'll be drivable since i've got 4.88s

    Exactly! How can i pass something like that up?!:p

    I doubt itll make a big difference since my truck is a fat pig, but even if it helps just a little, ill be happy. Looking forward to driving the ol girl again. Been a couple months now it seems since ive taken it for a good drive. Will also be nice to have a truck that gets a little better gas mileage. May start dailying it again

    Not sure how i missed your build, just found it yesterday. Maybe i was confused by your 13 pic when the turtle is the fun one. Sub'd now and slowly making my way through. Love the solar setup, that's sweet!

    Thanks brother! Yeah the turtle is more geared towards offroading, even though its a 2wd. If you ever plan on going solar, I cant recommend it enough! I keep my fridge in there full time and it never runs down the battery. It's my dedicated beer fridge lol :D

    Thanks, I had plans on my old camper to add a solar panel to recharge the battery when boon docking but we upgraded campers now and that is no longer on the radar.

    New clutch, lightweight flywheel, and rear main seal installed yesterday. Going through the break in procedure now. Loving it so far, very similar feel to the clutch in my 6spd, but the pedal feel is much softer. Here's a pic of the old clutch cover. It was in pretty bad shape
