    Unless it's too thick it'll work well. I might get a second bag that's only a 40 degree bag so I can do that in the summer

    Bummer how wide it is going to be. I got to thinking about it, it would be hard to justify 50k when a supercharger and LT on mine would be just as fun for far less money. Plus you wouldn't have to worry about damage to your expensive truck .

    yeah i know. I posted that it was 85'' wide when we were last talking about. Doesn't seem worth it really, might as well go for the big boy raptor.

    And yes..1.8'' shocks are tiny.

    Not promising! haha

    exactly. For 50k you could link the back and LT the front, boost it and cage it and make the interior still very nice. haha

    I go with a comforter - I have a Rumpl - very warm, folds up and packs away nicely. But I also am not man enough for a tent (I do have a RTT but not used yet ) so I just use it in my teardrop.

    Injector seals toast on 1 and 4. 2 and 3 were hanging in there, but also close to going. Cylinders seem ok despite the clogged pick up. I will consult a buddy about a full rebuild or not. Lots of carbon build up on stuff from the EGR but nothing that can't be cleaned. Turbo shaft has a little play so I will need to find the tolerance on that, although a rebuild shouldn't be too bad for cost.

    Yeah it did. What you need?

    Do they sell conversions from the vacuum actuated front diff to electric? Just realized the 97 parts truck has that.

    Id love to put CC in my reg cab. From what i've read all the wiring is supposed to be there already so Id just need the actuator in the engine bay, the brain under the passenger kick panel, and the steering wheel possibly. Hell if its a tilt wheel id take the whole column haha If that's the case, maybe id run down to get all that stuff. First i want to check and see if i have the wiring pre installed as it is a 95 and a reg cab..so who knows.

    No conversions, but you can just get an electric one. Just have to wire it up off the Tcase and that is pretty easy. Why do you want to swap to the electric one?

    As long as you don't need any wiring you can have at it. I'm going to tear into the harness for the clutch cancel plug for the 4 door so it's cruise will work and cancel when the clutch is depressed.

    Figured if I wanted to make the center lock be able to talk to the front diff it would be wise but I haven't looked into that side of it yet and don't really know if I need it or not.

    Oh...well the vacuum is still "electrically activated" so to speak. There is a 4wd relay and that flips the vacuum solenoids to change the vacuum direction. So you can still wire that into the new tcase id think pretty easily. The relay should be on the passenger side under the kick panel.

    Yeah no wiring. And i'll just buy new switches as I'll need a brake and a clutch one anyways. Its the cc stalk, back of the steering wheel(you can't buy the pre trimmed piece just the whole wheel), CC brain, and CC actuator that i'll need. Should be it i hope. Will find out.

    And maybe the washer bottle pump or possibly that whole stalk if my switch is bad.
