Nice truck :thumb:

Light bar is exactly where I put mine, Moose can't hide from me anymore

Oh, look at your truck from the back, looks like a train car that should be on rails, I recommend some 2" wheel spacers. Best appearance mod I've made

You just need a lift pump and a trans, then your twins and some injectors and a duel fueler setup :woott::hug:

Thanks man, I think spacers would be good too but in probably going for 22x10 wheels, might look good in winter mode though. As for the lift pump, trans, duel fuelers and twins those are always on the mind, have to fight the urge to order them every payday lol.

Well I found a good deal on an ATS diff cover and picked it up earlier this week, went to go buy some gear oil this Saturday and found out my entire city was pretty much out of 75w90 fluid... went to 9 different stores who supposedly had stock and only at the last one did they have 6 quarts. :angry4: After getting ****ed around all morning hunting this down I got the cover installed, pretty sure previous owner never changed the oil but drain plug looked good no metal shavings. Going to get a pic tomorrow of the cover but it looks decent and hopefully will help when towing the skidsteer on long trips.

You will have to let me know how the electric cutout for your exhaust is. Be interesting to see how much better it breathes for the track. I imagine there will be some nasty drone down the highway though.

I sure will, not sure when I'm getting it welded in but I'm hoping soon. Still haven't taken the truck to the track yet. Hope to do so soon and see what it can do.

Had some free time today so I decided to start working on the exhaust. I was running the standard mbrp 4" turbo back exhaust with a muffler and 3" downpipe. Never liked the way it hung down so low and kicked out to the side so I dumped it behind the axle.

Makes the 5" tip look pretty small so I'm thinking about getting a 7 or 8" tip about 15" long, should tie it all in nicely. Also went down to America and picked up my qtp cutout last weekend just have to find a place local to weld it in.

After doing the exhaust I went and started to put in some led footwell lights. No pics yet as I am finishing them tomorrow and may try and run some to the back seats as well.

Nice truck man. Any new updates?

Diff cover looks great! You were right about the old exhaust, it hung down a bit too low and it looks better now
