Fun tidbit: Freedom Offroad upper rear control arms won’t fit with the IHC relocation brackets. The bushing diameter is too large to fit in the axle side area. 14c93f4370be42a4506cca52eb389731.jpg

Only missing a black headliner now

Also found this “u” shaped part on the frame smacks the top of a larger than stock differential cover.

Added Bushwacker Trail Armor rocker guards. They don’t make regular cab specific but the fronts fit for crew cabs. I cut a rear up to cover the cab corner but it looked weird so I took it off.

Should add protection either way.

Airaid Jr intake tube

Had a K&N drop in filter prior, but the Airaid that came with the kit was dry and had way deeper pleats, so I put it in.

Also added Hellwig rear swaybar

Had to remove the Freedom Offroad panhard due to clearance with diff cover. Gonna try a Spohn non-adjustable.

Bit the bullet and ordered a supercharger. Went with Edelbrock/Eaton TVS 2300 kit

Also ordered a Walbro 450 and new fuel pump assembly. Gonna see if I can figure that out. I’ve modded and fit dual pumps on other platforms so should be ok. Should be way overkill for anything I’m gonna do on stock block.

Finally AEM afr gauge and column pod to monitor.

After all that, some tune time at the shop I take stuff.

Making some great progress! Excited to see the supercharger install! I should have done a filter relocation long ago. look way more convenient in the new location.
