That's freaking DIRTY! If I had the money I'd buy that in a heart beat if it weighed 3350-3400 lbs curb.
That's a beautiful concept I hope it turns out as planned!

In our quest to shed as much weight as possible, we recreated the steel front cooler brackets out of aluminum and got rid of a few pounds. The roof weight in at approx 22 lbs. We figure we should lose another 15 lbs off the top. First step was removing the paint to see the spot welds Next was to drill a pilot hole Followed by drilling out the spot welds with a special bit all in all it wasn't that difficult. The rest of the steps were just cleaning off the factory foam and sanding down the stop welds smooth. We removed the steel plates on the side of the center console. Sorry no before pictures ( there on Justins phone). Weight removal was 7.4 lbs. All told, these three mods should save us about 25 lbs total. Last edited by Moreno1; 07-08-2014 at 01:53 PM. |

Modified the DSE motor mounts to push the engine back 2".
Made a spacer to relocate the trans mount. The dry sump tank was being mounted on the front right wheel well. Space was a a premium as the tire was hitting the tank when clocked inward. To gain 1" of clearance between the tank and tire required notching the tank, eliminating the mounting bracket and direct mounting it the frame rail. Finish shorting the air intake tube and mounting the oil filters. Still need to modified the upper radiator hose and mount the breather tank for the dry sump tank. Plumbing has been a mental exercise for the dry sump tank! More on that later. Last edited by Moreno1; 07-08-2014 at 12:46 PM. |
