Wow, dropped to the second page. Guess I should update...

Finally got the extra compressor plumbed and all set up. A set of tanks in the bed feed the air bags. The instant inflate is very nice, and the reactionsare priceless. Air horns soon...

Got a chunk of 1/4" plate bent for a wench mount size, long enough to replace the very front x-member. Will build a bumper shell around that.

Had to replace all the hoses from turbo-innercoler-intake. The originals were getting very soft and at high boost would blow off the tubes. Got a set of silicone boots and solved all of those issues.

Mounts were getting shot, could feel everything shift in the gear shifter. After searching and seeing prices, I opted for a set of poly inserts to tighten up the mounts I have. A new tranny mount showed the old one was in two pieces.

Guess I'll put another 20k miles on it.
