Re: ***Dream Truck Build*** 72 swb fleet with a cummins and one tons

I don't have any real exiting updates, but they're updates. Progress has slowed down since the birth of my son on Feb 1st, although I am still putting in a few hours here and there.

I bought a 175 hp p7100 injection pump, housing, lines and everything needed to convert my ve motor to a 07100 motor. I am in the preprocessing of cleaning all of my parts and sending the pump in for tuning




The head came off for a new oem gasket, arp studs and milled rocker pedestals



I've been trying to fit a compound turbo set up. Originally planned on going with a hx35/ht3b setup but the rotation of the 3b makes it difficult to fit. I have a hx55 that fits better but I'm on the look out for a s472.

Pictured is the ht3b sitting under the hx35



My new suspension is finally installed 4" offroad design custom leafs built to my specs and 3" tuff country ez rides. Front sits a little high but should level out if I ever drive it.



Brand new 33/12.50/20 toyo open country mt

I still can't decide on wheels, they will be a 20x12... Unsure of what wheels though, I've been leaning towards black instead of polished.

Two sets I have






At this point we are finishing up all of the panel gapping, tailgate to bedsides are done, doors are done, we've been fighting with hood to fender on drivers side as well as the cowl. Once panels are aligned I will start on body work.
