Jeegy upgrades!

[jeepmanjeff]

Well I have been convinced after Harlan and watching Others, cough, cough, all weekend that I need more HP and a smoother shifting experience in the woods. Hence I bought a 6.0 LS LQ4 tonight with 91,000 on it. I also last weekend bought a TH400

So far I have ordered this for the upgrades:

Transmission cooler
Derale 15800 Electra-Cool... Amazon.com: Derale 15800 Electra-Cool Remote Cooler: Automotive

Tranny rebuild

Seat belts
Driver Restraints 3 in. Complete Set 3 in. Cam Lock Wrap Around Black Pull Up Straps Amazon.com: Driver Restraints 3 in. Complete Set 3 in. Cam Lock Wrap Around Black Pull Up Straps: Automotive

Atlas 32 spline input kit

Advance adapters Th400 to Atlas transfer case

Need these items that I can think of

Torque converter

Power steering pump bracket for my Howe pump

Bracket for my York compressor
License for ECM

FUEL PUMP

FUEL FILTER

Radiator lines and what not

Winters shifter

Throttle cable

Exhaust

If anyone has information on the items left to get or can think of anything else I might need add it to this thread

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkYou can always relocate the packs and get longer plug wires. Are they all in the way or just a couple?

I mentioned flipping the coils backwards (if that's possibly) and getting a longer set of wires. Lester also came up with a good idea on Facebook. I guess Jegs sells this rack where you can mount and hang them in any location you need.

I also got a sweet bearing set driver if you need to borrow it as well. It has some small drivers in it that we needed for the TH400

Zach’s kit will be here this week. I bought everything g we need to do it and a kick ass book for it as well. Has color pictures and shows how to mod them as well

I ended up buying a bearing kit too. Got tired of not having the right tool for the job. This kit has stack-able pucks for about any size combination.

[jeepmanjeff]

What bearing set?

[jeepmanjeff]

The radiator is installed and lines ran

I really like the AN16 lines. Well worth the money to do these. Really is not that expensive to do.

Those are really really cool, but that's only like 7/8 ID, right? Is that going to be enough flow?

[jeepmanjeff]

1” is what I bought. Everyone has said yes it will

This is also what they run on the NASCAR cars

You managed to cram the york in? Nice!

If it's facing backward, does it spin the opposite direction? Does it mind?

[jeepmanjeff]

AES is sending one that is reverse rotation for me at no charge!. This company is fantastic!

Not much going on in the last 3 weeks. Ben concentrating on Zach's. I am down to 2 codes Lean Bank 1 and 2. I am going to change the 02 sensor on bank one (I read this can cause both codes). and go from there. The jeep runs really good! just need to do the interior skins and she will be done and ready for wheelin!

[WrenchMonkey]

Did I see your Boggers for sale? Is the new plan a surprise?

[jeepmanjeff]

We figured you were looking for a good use for all that new horsepower! :thumbup:

[jeepmanjeff]

Installed the new O2 sensors and test drive for 5 minutes. No check engine but I need more drive time to make sure

Also started on the rims and tires tonight with Zach. He also disassembled my front axle for the dually turn down and chrome Molly upgrades!

Those will look great on the buggy. Gotta love that aggressive tread pattern.

Got the rear tires on the Jeegy and the chrome Molly axles and spindles installed. I think I may need to make new link mounts for tires to clear. Won’t know for sure till I get the front hubs installed and can flex it out.
