Muncher Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 Open loop getting installed. But of course with issues. That brand new thermostat housing came cracked and I messed up my waterpump gasket (and then possibly tried to use a large amount of revenue and failed) so I'm waiting on a new water pump gasket and hopefully I should be done with that shenanigan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muncher Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 Also bought this. Some may find it stupid but getting rid of that stupid big stock intake will give me some room to manage wires and make the engine bay alot better looking. Thinking of routing my winch solenoid box there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncher Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 Yep cowl filter. Sounds amazing! Fitment is all good besides the fact it goes right over the oil cap which is a little annoying. But besides that came with everything and is all good. But I swear everyone else's c101c connector is longer then mine I had to take mine off and now it's just sitting there. Guess I should eliminate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muncher Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 Also you wouldn't belive that I drove my truck up and down the road giving her a little beans listing to it breathe and when I came home and parked it and shut it off the bottom radiator hose just popped off so much for that hose clamp. It's as tight as it could possible be and it still fell off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 did you use a good hose clamp, or one of those pesky cheap worm style? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 also, make sure that the clamp isn't clamping right on top of the tip of the radiator output. it has to be closer to the radiator itself so it clamps down and then can't be pulled off the wide bit.

Muncher Posted August 30, 2021 Author Share Posted August 30, 2021 Possible culprit of killing my battery completely. I had it unscrewed so it was shutting off. But at the same time it only started completely dying this week and I had that off for a while so who knows. Excuse my nut collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muncher Posted September 3, 2021 Author Share Posted September 3, 2021 My fog lights worked for the first time today since I got it out of the random when they were switched off lol. Think it's time for a new relay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muncher Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 This is m2 bandits usb clarning and ram ball switch mount that replaces the cigarette lighter. I sanded it down first with 60 gritt then used 120 gritt. After that cleaned it up a little and used filler/sandable primer on it, now I have to sand the filler a little just once then paint it black and it can go in! Awesome design can't wait to use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncher Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 Maiden voyage for the truck was very fun. First day I blew the rubber on the fuel filter and then had some fun over heating issues. Second day my horn decides to go a wall and just honk for ever when plugged in. But today it has been amazing I went on some trails with her and had fun! Thing rides great even on the high way with no sway bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncher Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 sway bars are finally in. rock auto is the way to go only 3 bucks a piece. today kind of sucked though because my truck will be mostly stationed at my house for a while because my brakes decided I'm not good enough to have brake fluid anymore and i have to now pump my brakes to get them to actually do anything.
