So what did you do with your truck today?

[catbird7]

Well I ordered more parts tonight.

I ordered Hypermax's overpriced dipstick that relocates across the top of the transmission to the drivers side.

I have a Workhorse Customs fan and clutch kit ready to be installed.

Ordered a full fuel system from R&D.

Ordered an 093 install kit from Russrepair.

Ordered ARP head studs, head gaskets, valley pan, and valve cover gaskets from CDD.

CHA, CHING$! Glad I'm not on the paying end of that Christmas list. However it should be awesome when you're finished.

Probably less than a new truck payment.
New truck payment goes on and on an....
What fun is there to that?

Going to look good when done.

Yup. And when it’s done it’s gonna last longer and be more reliable then a new truck

Here’s the fuel system I bought. One left at the time I posted this.

WOW!!! Well there is one truck payment for sure.

That thing pushes 68 gallons of fuel per hour, you`re
not going for fuel economy.

Keep in mind it has a regulated return, so most of that fuel just recirculates.

A 110cc injection pump usually isn’t the pump of choice for fuel economy.

I priced a new truck, and figured up the payment and insurance, and with a 30% down payment it was still gonna cost me over $1500 a month the way I wanted to go about it. Doesn’t sound very freeing to me. That prompted me to push a little harder on this project. It might figure out to be $1500 a month, but only for several months, a year at most, versus 4 or 5 years. A big problem that I’d have with a new vehicle is paying for so many features that I wouldn’t want, much less make payments on stuff I don’t want.

Plus big insurance and gap payment.

This really doesn't have to do with my IDI trucks, but I bought an OJ bronco for WHOA cheap.

It didn't run. Long story short, he thought it was something with the ignition, so it's got a bunch of new stuff, but it was actually the fuel pressure regulator gone bad and flooding the engine. After I got that set it needs a brake booster and some odds and ends, but WATCH OUT, you're liable to see this "Florida Man" on the news driving 45mph on the interstate surrounded by cop cars and helicopters because I've been suspected of being cool because I got 3 wheelers..... and an OJ bronco!!!



There's actually a cop in Crestview that has an OJ bronco, and get this, his front plate just says "OJ" but his back vanity plate is "OJBRONC", seriously, and it's a COP!!!

 

[IDIBRONCO]

Since my Bronco had parts from '84, '85, '86, '89, and '90, I was told that it was a Johnny Cash Bronco. I thought about a window sticker or custom front plate that said just that. I never did buy either one though.

Jesus Freak, drop an IDI in there to bring this back on topic.

I was originally going to do that with my black 84 bronco, it's actually completely stripped for that purpose, wiring harness and all. And I have everything to do a IDI bronco, but I lost interest and accumulated everything needed to do a 351W/AOD bronco. Now that OJ is here, I've lost interest in that too.....

 

[rreegg]

Ordered some parts from bronco graveyard - a single replacement height marker light and the headlight relay kit. Preparing for some rear brake adjustments too, have been considering replacing drums but been putting it off maybe it’ll happen

What did I do? I popped the hood to show off my intercooler piping to my new idi buddy down the street, then waved my truck bye as I left town. In Ontario Commiefornia for the week for electric vehicle training
