Clutch install

Clutch went in fairly easy minus installing the flywheel alignment pins wrong and having to remove and reinstall it.

Front bag install

Front bag install. After getting the wheels on, front wheels would not spin. As shown below material had to be removed from the lock collar along with the addition of a 1/4" spacer to allow the MRR M350 wheels to clear. The spacer limits the drop height so I'm going to look at putting on Gt350 fenders on. I have 3mm and 5mm spacers on the way and will see if that helps.

Rear suspension/differential/axles

Almost everything in the rear back in. Differential came out and replaced because of improper back lash. 3:73 gears were removed for 3:31. I ended up having to buy a loaded 3:55 differential without Torsen to get this thing moving. Gonna send the Torsen 3:31 differential out to get properly gaped. My buddy has been doing 8.8 gear swaps for decades but the new super 8.8 IRS takes special tools to install and gap properly. The howl from the rear was deafening. 3:55 is in and sounds great. The increased noise from the solid bushing kits are acceptable.

D1SC install

D1SC install. Destroyed the first belt by not setting the tension properly. Second belt installed worked great after adjusting the tension. Working with Lund finishing the tune.

Thank you!! Currently It's at the 2.5-5.5 WOT stage of the Lund tune process. I ran out of time and having my friend help me out.

Still needs:
Airlift height senors installed.
Four wheel alignment.

Some reason I'm getting the low brake fluid light coming on/off intermittently. Gotta find the loose wire or maybe it's the level sensor.

Hopeing I can get in on a boat to Germany in a few weeks.
