Jeegy upgrades!

jeepmanjeff · 10-17-2018, 11:06 PM

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

Need these items that I can think of

You 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.

Just one. I am going to stand it up right and make little tabs for it.

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 · 11-29-2018, 10:46 PM

What bearing set?

jeepmanjeff · 11-29-2018, 10:49 PM

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 · 12-01-2018, 12:58 AM

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

This is also what they run on the NASCAR cars

Cool! Let me know, that could help with a packaging issue I'm having too.

You managed to cram the york in? Nice!

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

jeepmanjeff · 12-04-2018, 10:24 AM

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