found a turbo in the back seat of one of my trucks so I swapped it out day since I put a turbo on it that had a ate up thrust bearing on it. Man this thing is fun with a 62/75 set up. and the s475 sounds great! Such a fun truck to drive and slide around off road.

For real......."oh I forgot I had this" LOL

Lol not the first time it has happend ether. I've found a s366 new in the box and s483 in my race trailer from last season I forgot about.

But I wanna so something with the interior next.

I want to make it more of an event to drive. It's hard for me to explain it. Like having to climb over a rollbar and stap your self into a racing harness.

Isn't that what your other truck is for? You could always install a big ol switch panel with individual switches for everything. Or you could cage it and enter a race.

Cutting-Edge Diesel · Apr 7, 2014

yeah well... idk if that other truck is going to happen now. I kinda went back to the idea of making this one more and moving the race truck further back.

Then I vote cage it, and make sure you take lots of pictures!

Cutting-Edge Diesel · Apr 7, 2014

I have always planned on caging it.....well there was a few weeks in there somewhere where I wasnt going to but pretty much the entire time planned on caging it haha

extended cabs just dont have roll over protection and that scares me a little when taking it off road. more so when other people are with me.

Would you only put 2 seats in it or squeeze a third? Are you eventually going to do 4 link in the rear with some trailing arms?

Cutting-Edge Diesel · Apr 7, 2014

I thought about putting a 3rd seat in the middle of the back if one would fit.

yeah 4 link with triangulated upper links is the plan right now. fuel cell under the bed where the spare goes to try and move as much weight back as i can. Also want to move the radiator and trans cooler to the back.

here is what im shooting for on the cage

It's fun for a toy but something that gets driven more like a DD it gets old quick.

This truck definitively isn't a DD lol hasn't been for about 3 years. I has has 3000 miles put on it in the last 3 years and probably 90% of thoes were the first year. It had just set here since may of 12. Just got it running last October.
