How much does that run?

The kit is not ready for release to the general public yet so I am not positive of pricing. I think it's going to be between $1400-1500.

Will be adding one of these as soon as they are released!

Been awhile since I've been to the Howe
shop.....might be a good time to stop by!

I have installed the kit and put about 190 miles Offroad with it. No issues at all. The system works great and has no fade at all. I took some pictures as I was installing it. (When I am working I am really bad about stopping to take pictures)
Here is the kit as it came to me. My understanding is when the kit is ready for public real ease all of the hoses will be made and the AN fittings welded to the Ford specific rack fittings.
The kit came with no instructions on how or where to install anything. After mocking it up on my bench to see which fittings and hoses went where, I decided to mount the reservoir on the front of my radiator support. (Not sure if this is where it's designed to go. But I am limited to places due to the way my truck is built)
The kit comes with a custom mount for the PS pump. This is an easy replacement for me with the hood off and since I don't have any inner fenders.
Next I made up all the lines and plumbed the system. The only two left were the ones to and from the rack. I took these to Shaffer's Offroad and we cut the tube for the new fittings.
After that they were tig welded to the shortened tubes.
Here are a couple of pictures of the system in and plumbed.
I am not sure of the retail pricing. I think it's going to be between $1400-$1500. If you are thinking about upgrading your system I think this is the best way to go. It is the only system that replaces the PS pump.

I was lucky enough to receive 4 of the new KMC wheels for SEMA last year. The draw back was I had the only 4 wheels in the U.S. and have been waiting on 2 spare wheels since October.
They showed up last week and the off set is closer to stock and my tire mounts was built for the Methods. So I had to do a little modifying.
I started by making a spacer to lift the rim and then a new center piece to hold the rim in place.

Then I had to lengthen the mounting bolts. Took a 17 mm socket and drilled holes so I could weld it to the bolt shaft.

Once is was all welded up. Everything fit and I pulled my rear tires off and rotated in the new Toyo tire and KMC wheels into the rotation. Put the old rears on the carrier.

Should have come on the Ghost Town run- you could have seen it in action.

After driving around Oakland today, I was inspired to put some new wheels and tires on my truck.

In reality, this what happens when your buddy who is a geek, is bored, watching his six month old and is playing with photo shop. I just thought it was a funny picture and thought I would share.
