    Taken forever, but finally getting around to welding the headache rack on.

    Oh this thing has struggled with starting. Even with new batts and tested the starter power cable for voltage drop (it was alright) it would barely turn over. Reading up it's a common 7.3 issue so upgraded to a higher end starter. Cranks over at almost the idle rpm now, hell of an improvement.

    Test fitting and designing fuel system layout. Driver side box will have roughly half of it occupied by the fuel system. Filler neck at the top of the box.

    Wired in tail lights, and mostly mocked up and measured the headache rack along with other stuff.

    Engine is back together, runs smoother with faster throttle response. Now back to the bed

    Lol one thing at a time, financially wasn't planning to buy another truck for at least a few more years. Unless I come across some money fast the turbo will have to come back off later to fix the cracked exhaust housing and any other exhaust issues. Only in here for the fuel system fix right...

    Just read up on the Harpoon mod. If I'd known about it when installing the new 1/2in pickup tube I would have done it, but not going to fight with that damn locking ring on the tank again haha. Reason being is the black plastic locking ring on mine is warped, took a good 45 minutes just to...

    Not decided yet on how the stock tank will get filled with the new bed. There are 4 options I'm looking over : 1. Filler located at the outside edge of the bed (common flatbed spot). Known to be a problem with regular flatbeds due to the shallow angle and because of the gin poles the filler...

    Fuel tank pickup tube, filters are a davco 230 water separator followed by a 2 micron final. Edge cts3 monitor is in the plans. Exhaust is factory size

    It's going to get a heavy front bumper and rock sliders along the cab for offroad protection, didn't figure I'd need any armor by day 3. The guy also tried to claim that the bed damage at the rear on the Ford was from the accident. Showed the officer the flat tire pics from the HD recovery 2...
