got some big boxes in the mail this week. I'll post some pics once i get it all set up. Truck has been running pretty well. i have a ground issue for the IDM i need to chase but it should be simple. still have to do some gauges and change my traction bars into ladder bars as well.

I did take it to a local show and got a trophy a few weeks ago =)

Threw these on quick. I don't really like them but it's legal at least. Won another trophy today too

I think 55 gallon drum follows this build a little better. If there was a wood bed floor or anything else wood on the truck the barrel would work, but since there's not...

havent been doing too much with the 53 lately. the pushrod for my clutch master keeps coming out and breaking the little clips that hold it in :/
the plan is to put a rod end on the rod and a physical stop to keep the pedal from coming back any farther than it has to. Should be near bulletproof after that i hope.

Still have a relay clicking for the IDM, not sure whats up with that. gotta get the meter out and check the ground or something

yeah i have the joint to put on it. the problem though is the clips that hold the rod into the master. they just keep breaking. should be able to take some angle iron and bolt it onto there somewhere to keep it from coming back i think.
kinda dumb how its designed but its probably better in an actual cab. the way my seat is kind of makes for an awkward feel on the pedal. 2 inches more leg room wouldve been nice

Got the drivers window all done. Really liking the stainless piece on top. Also, Vent windows suck lol took 2 hrs to replace all the rubber and getting it to work well again
