it makes all the decisions.  no current way to get a reader on it.

4 wheel spin on loading dock had good power and good fuel pressure.

not really much of a power upgrade, no harness is deal breaker, priced 2x what its worth anyway.

i only used it once so far, so no verdict yet.


love it for speed loaded and even faster loaded though.  well worth weight savings too.

no clue the visual difference.  i assumed it was a 4l60e, but wiki says all 2500's have 4l80e

ill have to confirm i guess next time the car is torn down  (its kinda buried inside and not visible 99% of the time)

got the lift tonight on this guy


found a broken rear slider bolt!  new failure, suspect wreck wheeling slammed calliper up i guess?

also found a huge chunk of black rubber gasket material blocking filter inlet.  going to change filter and pump, call that fixed for now. 



not sure my plan for 2" fox bumps is going to be a bolt on swap.  the can lengths are much different and i was bottoming on the end of the bump in my design.  might just run as is for now, fix can mounts for IN race.

rear shocks and limit straps pulled for Fox 2.5 install

prepped and done

motor sounds reborn with 60psi of fuel instead of 45.  filter was being blocked by a 1.5"x.5"x.5" hunk of jello gooo inner hose gunk.
Fox 2.5 rear CO's installed
rear slider bolt replaced (pulled spare that was in on board tool bag)
front pinion fixed and welded
fire ext replaced from brolite
bolt check and lube
fluid checks
swapped back to old bump setup- new foxs are too different in length and will cause shock crashing.  fix TBD

will need all new lower heims soon.  significant play everywhere....

koh flat Erik changed dismounted.  only a small pin hole found in the side wall..   easy patch. 

Thanks again Erik and Cora for catching a hissing tire before i destroyed it!
