77Conours's 1997 RCLB Build Thread

Hey all, I’m not dead and I still have the truck. Had to have a radiator and new clutch fan done and the fuel pump died. So new fuel tank, fuel tank straps, fuel pump, and fuel lines. I focused more on saving for a house but the market around here is garbage. Scheduled 3 tours of different...

77Conours's 1997 RCLB Build Thread

Nothing new or exciting to report here. Did a new fuel tank, fuel pump, lines, and filter. I bought new stainless brake lines too. Like I said before this will be a 90’s style 4x4 build and was able to score V-tech tail light covers for $23. I opted not to use the Lund roll pan either. The...

Lol it’s on page 4 of the thread. $40 for the old school style. All brackets included. Everything needs sandblasted and powder coated. You’re lucky. I’ll probably just do the black Westin step bars until if and when I find a set. If you look closely at my truck when I first got it, it had...

A set for a regular cab truck like mine were an hour and a half away and sold on the 1st on eBay new in the box. I was so pissed because those are the one thing that will be nearly impossible to find.

Sure will because I won’t be paying out the ass on car payments, lower insurance, and diesel is cheaper than 93. I’ve gotten pretty lucky across Facebook marketplace for my Centerlines and Westin brush guard. The clear APC corners I found at Pep Boys pushed back on a shelf covered in dust...

Oof hard pass on those. I’ll be doing the full size bow tie tail light covers though. I think a roll bar and KC’s are the only retro stuff I need but I’ll be buying those items new.

Alright so I promised pictures of my scores from yesterday. First being new unused “tail light enhancements” from Lazer Concepts. Apparently they’re paintable but I don’t know if I’m going to use them, keep them, or eventually sell them. But the second thing I found was the best. A brand new...

Thanks! I never daily drove a manual so it’s a different experience but shifting gears with the windows down is incredible. I’m trying to source a turbo back 5” straight pipe before winter. End goal for the Ram is about 700-750hp. Not looking for stupid power numbers, just a decent daily...

Holy hell is this way overdue for an update. No, I’m not dead and the truck is still mine. Nothing really exciting happened over the last 10 months. The truck got a new radiator and clutch fan in spring. Then a few months ago the fuel pump died....new fuel pump, fuel tank, fuel lines and...

Truck “passed” PA inspection/emissions today. Oil cooler lines are leaking and the front of the oil pan is moist. Trans is also leaking a little. Buddy/tech said I shouldn’t spend money on the truck since it’s rusty. I’m going to have cooler lines and oil pan gasket replaced in a few weeks...

My uncle stopped by to drop these off tonight. Said he wanted them gone so $150 later here we are! Have to get lug nuts for them and clean them up. I was wrong about how they looked lol. I prefer these over the style I though they were.

These on Goodyear’s Cylinders 2 and 4 were destroyed in June. So I’ve been daily driving the ‘97 all summer. Going with a forged 392 stroker, new heads, cam, and ATI super damper. Shooting for 800 horsepower. Just sucks I was unprepared lol. It’s life, no one is dead and the car isn’t...

That thing is awesome. I’m actually listing my Centerlines for sale.....I need money to rebuild my Charger’s engine. Plus it will clear some room up in the garage. Hoping to have 2018 Silverado take offs here in 2 weeks.

Nothing new really. Replaced the air filter with an AC Delco unit. Cleaned a few leaves out of the air box and put it back together. Pretty boring. My mega cab was 5% the whole way around including sun roof. In PA we have our emissions and inspection stickers on the windshield so I’m...
