2.5ton F-150

Headed to east texas tonight after i get off work, and im gonna pull my starter tomorrow. hopefully it wont rain for atleast an hour im hoping. ill put the other one in if i feel like it not sure yet.

also might look at the crossover steering a little...

 

so im back in town from back home.

i took the starter off and put the other one on.

also i took the crossover steering off, for when its lowered and how i was thinking of doing it, it wont work... o well i have another option for when i change out the front springs.

also i took the front brakes off (lines) and running braided new ones. get it more useable and easier to work on.

i also deleted the abs off the truck so got rid of around 30lbs and got needed space.


i took this off thanks giving. one of the reasons im changing the setup


ill have some more pics of the other stuff just got to down load them

 

heres a few pics from last weekend


me changing the starter. once i got down there realized a bolt had rattled out, have 3 back in there


my crossover steering,
have to wait to drop it down to see how to hook it back up next go around.



i cleaned the dropped arm up a little still gonna paint everything

 

one of the master cylinder lines done, need to do the other



i need the crossover piece may use the stock one... havent decided

i have from the distribution blocks (T or whatever its called) to the calipers

but need to bend some lines going from the master cylinder down the fire wall to the blocks

 

ok im not threw and it will be some time before im able to test...

but im trying a new location for my tranny cooler

old location

where your spare tire goes. so it was always caked with mud and didnt like how far the fluid had to travel to and from the tranny. it was suppose to be a bed mount, i had even fabed up some brackets but i had 4 10" speakes go in its spot haha.
old cooler... older chevy a/c condensor (r-12) type with 2-16" E-fans
most times would never run them unless i was on the trails.

new cooler is the stock a/c condensor with a 10" E-fan



i know its a 134 system but i hope it works out. may go back to an (R12) ststem in the stock a/c condensor spot




the adapters, i know there ugly but ill buy some russels if it actually works


pic of them hooked up

 

Well I guess I'm gonna turn this into a build thread.

I'm still piecing things together and will probably take a year to get all the parts necasary, but as of right now I have a 1rotor 225$ and will be getting the other 3 in two weeks.

These will be for the rockwells, I'll take a picture of it to show how retardedly big these things are. They weigh 45lbs apiece

Somethings that will be bought through out the year Np205 divorced, coilovers 18" travel, rocks, 5.4 s/c


I've had both rocks at different times but got rid of them for good reason. This time there going under it. I'll keep it updated as things come along

 

I lol'ed @ the 10" on the condenser

 

I know it does look goofy, I'm putting k/c lights on both sides of the fan though, or I would go back with 3 on the tranny cooler.



This is when I had A/C, and it was still my condensor.

Ignore me looking like a girl, I was like 9

 

Just wanted to say I've bought the brakes and some extra drive shafts for the next build,

Got some leaf springs for the meantime build while I gather everything else.

I love toy boxes!!!

 

Your truck looked SOOO sick with that set-up

 

bad a$$ truck.

 

Holy shat ***** batman. Thats a big fookin truck.

While your installing fans and coolers all over the place, put a few fans on the brakes and maybe the muffler.
J/K
Thats huge mang... seriously. What do you do with it? take it deep sea fishing? lol

 

Thanks guys!

I'm just glad my trucks finally growing up a little bit and gonna get some Rocks!

 

Haha here a funny story on fans.

Went mudding before I went big and clogged 3/4 of the radiator with mud! Didn't know so I installed 7 e-fans to make it cool correctly and thought it was because of all the lift and tires. After finding out it was clogged cleaned it and it would run cool with no fans on! DAMN! Oh well live and learn

 

mmmm long tubes would do ya good.
