I see TX plates, you better get your ass in gear fixing that A/C.

Amen to that.

I upgraded trans coolers per my trans guy’s suggestion. I snagged one off a Ford Excursion at work for free and it actually doesn’t leak. Score

It may be held in there with zip ties and self tappers. But it’s not gonna fall out and that’s good enough for me. I did have to sacrifice my AC condenser to make room for the cooler, but the AC didn’t work to begin with and I’d need a new condenser anyway.

You could have soldered some smaller tubing into the larger line on the A/C condenser, flushed it, and used it as a super big trans cooler. I did that on my Jaguar, and the transmission survives racing conditions.

It’s been awhile again lol. I’ve been driving the truck everyday with no issues at all....besides the ones I create by messing with stuff, but that’s not the truck’s fault so that doesn’t count lol.

I did replace the water pump awhile back, truck started over heating and I couldn’t get it to stay cool for anything. And put in a 180 thermostat.

After that I FINALLY replaced the nigh on 30 year old speakers with some Polk component units:

Next up for audio is a new head-unit with Bluetooth and maaaaaaybe a small sub, just to help out with the bass a little.

I’ve been mulling over the idea of a 2 inch drop in the back and I’ve finally decided to go for it. This week I’ll be ordering the Beltech lowering shackles from Summit, hopefully I can get them in time so I can install them before a cruise night this Friday.

Making good progress. Those shackles will make that truck look a lot better. Any plans to eventually go lower?

Not currently no. I’d like to maintain some utility with this truck while still looking good. If I ever do go lower it’ll most likely happen on a different project truck lol.

That's fair. You can go lower and still get utility out of it depending on what it would be used for. I've got friends with lowered /bagged trucks that still haul their race cars and trailers around.
