Get some wheel spacers installed on the rear . Will make your truck look soooooo much better . Other than that looking good.

Re: Project: Typhoon 0437

welppp weather people calling for rain ALLLLLLLLLLLLL week, so why not... started taking it apart again.
heres what i started with, looks so horrible


Heres the bracket on the drivers side that holds alternator and powersteering..


And i wanna say there is 4 bolts that hold that entire bracket on, well taking off that bolt above and look what happens! To say the less someone got lazy and didnt feel like putting all the bolts/nuts in



Got the front apart so i can paint the radiator support


and heres where i left off tonight, i need to re-route that upper coolant line running to the heater core but not sure where to move it yet. Also have 1 bolt to get out of the alt/ps bracket but need to get a cheap wrench and thin it out to fit to get it out..



going to take this all to work tuesday and clean it and get ready for paint.. think im going to paint everything black and paint the pulleys gunmetal

Just by-pass the radiator cooler and just use the external cooler.
