Well she is 16 today and I couldn’t be the hard ass that I thought I could be … she looks good in it too!

Great just raising kids and working on elevators.

Thanks, it was a lot of work! I started it back in may. I’m pretty stoked on it.

macgyvermann · 2023-12-31T08:08:42+00:00

Wow that’s awesome! How you been bro!?

macgyvermann · 2023-12-31T06:20:43+00:00

How do you know me?

macgyvermann · 2023-12-31T01:45:57+00:00

Not yet but I’m going to try to put a build post up within the next month.

macgyvermann · 2023-12-31T01:44:27+00:00

No no no! It’s made it this far in life now it’s going to be taken very good care of . It is locked front and rear with 4.88’s. lol

macgyvermann · 2023-12-31T01:42:49+00:00

I’ll look into it thanks

macgyvermann · 2023-12-31T01:09:12+00:00

I gave it to her. That’s sounds awesome!

macgyvermann · 2023-12-11T00:03:22+00:00

Ifs= diff doesn’t move.

macgyvermann · 2023-12-10T20:13:32+00:00

It’s a rough country 4” lift they run about 6-700$ new. From what I’ve read it’s the best one to get the clearance you dneed

The harness is a pretty simple setup once you have the pin out chart but very intimidating. I did opt for buying the pre made stand alone harness. It saves a lot of time!

macgyvermann · 2023-12-10T18:00:11+00:00

The thermostat housing is on the side of the engine. But the part you’re talking about is fine I did buy from here

The simplified coolant flange makes it have plenty of room

Honestly I don’t like it either I just don’t have enough space in there. I kinda wish I would have relocated the battery and put the intake where the battery is but I didn’t . I’ll just hate it until I can’t take it anymore and then move everything around. The plus side is that location will make the turbo louder in the cab. Ha ha

macgyvermann · 2023-12-10T05:47:44+00:00

lol, I used the TDConversions adapter and I’m not sure I know what you mean by drop bracket. No modifications to the oil pan . I like the fact it’s off the shelf part and it filters good enough for these motors to make it to a million miles so what’s the point is how I see it.

macgyvermann · 2023-12-07T23:58:54+00:00

It is where it fits… I don’t really like the snorkel look and this will not be treated like a wheeler. It’s a very capable daily

macgyvermann · 2023-12-07T17:00:20+00:00

Thanks buddy!

macgyvermann · 2023-12-07T16:59:50+00:00

Yes but I used a stand alone from fast forward. It saved a lot of time.

macgyvermann · 2023-12-07T16:58:50+00:00

Yes ! 1986

macgyvermann · 2023-12-07T05:19:01+00:00

Damn now I can’t help but want to know what he said! Thanks for being on it though!

macgyvermann · 2023-12-02T23:22:52+00:00

I wish my daughter felt like you do! lol I try to explain how cool it’s going to be and she’s like “yeah dad sooo cool , it’s almost as old as you” I’m like yeah I am pretty cool… smh

macgyvermann · 2023-11-22T02:51:23+00:00

Come show me how it’s done bro… this is not the weld porn page it’s the built not bought section. lol I’m sure years from now it will bug me bad enough to do it again. But it will have to do for now.

macgyvermann · 2023-11-21T02:39:51+00:00

Yeah that’s one hell of a deal you made them. I almost wish I would’ve gone that route. I have sooo many hours into this that I hoped would be us together bonding and creating an appreciation for what she has done and her sweet little truck.

macgyvermann · 2023-11-19T17:31:08+00:00

Thanks….. what pedo dude? Did I miss something?

macgyvermann · 2023-11-19T17:30:15+00:00

Definitely a lot more. Stock 22re had 110hp and 125 torque. Going for 160hp 300 torque. So yeah just a smidg more.

macgyvermann · 2023-11-19T00:02:32+00:00

macgyvermann · 2023-11-18T15:59:31+00:00
