Any one like puzzles? lol started stripping the harness to build my control pack

 

[Cgiles01]

So this evening i removed the rear springs ect i still need to remove the front hangers. I started mocking up the trailing arms.

Well someone cut a hole in my floor! Time to order some more tube and get to linking this thing!

 

[Cgiles01]

Making progress on my diy control pack wire harness relays are all wired 10 more wires in the pcm than need hooked up Need to figure out how to unlock the pcm my self yet.

 

[Cgiles01]

Wiring is getting close just need to figure out how to delete pats!

 

[Cgiles01]

Well made some more progress on the rear axle using 14 bolt spindles and hubs I will weld up turn down and redrill to 5x5.5 to match the front

 

[Cgiles01]

Tonight I decided to turn down the 14 bolt hubs and get them ready to be re drilled

Yes you are

 

[turbomonty]

do the new studs require a D shaped head or are they going to be full round head?

I believe "solid industries" makes 14 bolt hub packages for 9" housing or any fabbed housing. Great prices and have a few different lug pattern options.

Yes rough stuff also does. But I cut up a 14 bolt axle that came out of a $400 parts truck I pulled a ls out of so I’m $0 in to these. Helps I have the machines in my shop to make them as well.

Should be enough room to run a normal stud.

 

[Cgiles01]

Last night I taught my son how to indicate the hub on center and we drilled the new bolt pattern in the hubs.

 

[Cgiles01]

These too make quite a pair! Can’t wait to finish the bronco! It’s the first time it has ever seen the snow!

Sometimes you have to go back words before you can go forwards

 

[Cgiles01]

Gen 1 motor pulled and Gen 2 Coyote in. Gen 2 wiring is cleaner and simpler. I got Eric at hp tuners to add a patch so now anyone with hp tuners can unlock a Gen 2 or Gen 3 pcm.

Machined up some 6r80 trans line adapters so I can run aftermarket lines.
