This is as far as I got with the heat shield...still just cardboard and duct tape toped off with a sprayer hose. It seems to be holding up nicely! I did add a ram air tube, using a floor duct and a dryer hose mounted under the bumper...not as ugly as it sounds. lol. I just don't have a pic yet.

That sucks Govna. Any hints about your redesign?

Figured I would add a couple recent pics, last year it was a 2wd automatic, now it has transformed into a lifted 4wd 5 speed.

Looks a lot like Arkansas Bend Park on Travis..


I did it the otherway around , after two years I removed all the 4wd stuff and made it two wheel drive, I spend a lot more time driving on twisty roads than i do crawling around in the mud

thinking doing custom bumpers, why not? fought to keep it, why not go nuts

 

[OffTrac]

That's the spirit. I was hoping that's what you were doing. Why not, right? I was planning on steel bumpers and sliders this winter but we just started the process of building a house so that's out. Please let me live through your projects.

Besides taking it places it should never have been taken, no not really.

Lost the mirror, and got the door scars while heading up a black diamond trail that turned left between two trees halfway up.

The damage was on the third attempt, with a more generous application of the throttle.

The headlight, well that was a matter of not having a parking brake and expecting my clapped out 4.0L to hold the truck on a hill, and being too near a tree .
