Re: "One really slow build" thread
Got some more done today
Got the upper rad hose on (still working on the lower) And started on my electric fans There will be two (and this one is just mocked up) http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180001.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180004.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180007.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180008.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180009.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180010.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180011.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180019.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180017.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_04180014.jpg I forgot to measure, but do you think my fans are: too close, not close enough, or just fine ? |
Re: "One really slow build" thread

Re: "One really slow build" thread
If I do run them outside the frame, I'll cut a hole in the frame & put a piece of 1/4" pipe / box the inside (for the pipe to run through)
But I think I'm not gonnna run em outside, because of the extra work (I wanna get my truck finished) |
Re: "One really slow build" thread
Progress?:rolleyes:

Re: "One really slow build" thread

Re: "One really slow build" thread
Well I have decided to run a "normal" fan for a while, just to get my truck on the road
I went to a show with Tav the other night & just really wished I had my truck I am getting really close, so I'm trying not to do anything I don't have to Plus it'll give me little weekend projects to do I have to finish my X-member install, hook up the drive shaft (and maybe have it cut down), do my exhaust, tweak my throttle peddle, put a new water pump on, & prolly some other things I'm not thinking of Hope to finish soon :metal: |
"One really slow build" thread *Get'n Close*
Well I'm get'n close to be'n finished (is there such a thing :lol: )
I changed out the leaky water pump & put on a "normal" fan Mocked up my exhaust, so I could hear it (It sounds awesome :metal: ) But now the bad news I was putting on my "new" rear yoke (that part went fine), but when I went to hook up the drive shaft I was tightening it up & one of the bolts snapped off in the yoke :no: :censored: :blah: On with the pics Old pump http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160019.jpg New pump http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160016.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160018.jpg My fan is huge (keeps the engine at 150, with no shroud) http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160017.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160015.jpg |
Re: "One really slow build" thread
Painted a door panel
http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160021.jpg Don't remember showing a pic of my wheels (This one is the worst, cuz PO's cat like to pee in it) http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160031.jpg Old exhaust (my new exhaust will do the same, but be hidden) http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160032.jpg Couple of random pics http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160034.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160035.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160036.jpg Don't think I ever showed a pic of the tool tray I built http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160037.jpg |
Re: "One really slow build" thread
Good to hear about the progress - any chance you got a sound clip of the exhuast? If so, post it up!

Re: "One really slow build" thread
This is the shroud I'll be using, just gotta get some new mounting hardware
http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160057.jpg This is the bolt I broke off (Dang that pisses me off) http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160055.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...7_05160056.jpg |
Re: "One really slow build" thread
Does suck about the bolt breaking - how's your access to it to be able to get the remaining portion out?
