So a small update:
The engine from the Dodge has been pulled and all of the components are arriving in the next week or so.
Parts that I decided to go with:
- Boyce Dana 60 frontend with 4.10s, ARB locker, and warn premium hubs
- ORD/Tuff Country 4" lift with greasable bushings
- ORD Crossover steering with a ported box to allow for a future hydro upgrade
- TN Diesel motor mounts, nv4500, bellhousing, clutch, hydraulics, etc
- National Luna dual battery kit with Die Hard Platinums
- Full autometer gauges with pyro and boost
Here's a pic of the beast. (it tipped over their engine hoist :Wow1
While the motor is pulled, it would be a great time to install any mods or upgrades. I haven't been able to decide what I want to do. It's going to get a general "freshening." All of the hoses, belts and leaky gaskets are getting replaced. I've thought about new injectors. I'm not looking for wild horsepower. I'm more concerned with mpg's. In the future I'd like to upgrade the turbo, but it's not in the present budget.
