There's a solid cheap intercooler dealer on eBay, even sells cores, etc. If in the market for an intercooler check oht Treadstone Performance. Sweet rig man looks like a lot of fun, cannot wait to get to enjoy mine its been way too long.

Because this thread needs to not die, and I just re-read through the whole thing and enjoyed every minute of it, I'll post the question here and not just shoot @IDIoit a PM.

Perhaps I missed it, but did you say what turbos you used?

Love this beast! Any updates on it?

i have not really worked on this rig since the rubicon.
i did build a set of beadlocks, which was one of my primary concerns, because... aluminum beads dont like rocks!

i did cut the back half off my chero in anticipation of building a flatbed with removeable bedsides.

i do have a donar vehicle, i just need to buy steel.
however, i have had a few other projects to get in line before i can get back to it...

1) my RV had **** brakes, so i had to rebuild them last week, even draining and replacing the fluids, flex lines and everything, along with installing a sway bar.

just got back from taking the wife out for a river float weekend, and the RV did great.

2) now i have until thursday to get my pontiac back together, because the twins start actual school, and i need something cool to drive them in!

i shall update once i get this chero fixed!
