[B]Your going to have to cut and extend the harness and move the box more toward the middle of the engine compartment to make room for the new wheel house. [B]

i'd be more worried about the large brake booster and master cylinder on the drivers side

i have raised uppers so im not going to have that much n/c. so im not too sorried about the brake booster. and ive found some pictures of the coputer strapped under the hood, not inside the truck. isnt there a reason the comuter in located inside the vehicle, or would there be any problems having it externally mounted

can you post pics of your uppers??

ive seen the comp relocated to underneath the dash. looks super clean, only downside is its a pain to get to when/if you need to get to it. Id mount it on the firewall or in the cab

Id say it was located inside just to stay out of the elements. But its a sealed box. it can get wet.

You can get a kit to raise the uppers from extensive metal works.

girlfriend has my camera. but if your looking into raising your uppers, you can use anything from square tubeing to flatbar added to the stock mounts. or make your own for that matter. but as it may be easier just to get the kit from extensive, depending on what you want to do. and i think i will just move everything to the firewall. whenever i put the trailer fenders in it should keep most of the rain and dirt off any exposed wires
