Cranbery's Build - "Homelander"

[Fozzy]

1.5-1.8 mpg improvement overall. Worth.

Even at 1 MPG its worth it. Let us know if it is consistent. just filled up with Chevron Premimum for $5.099. Ouch.

Get some Kaizen Foam and make a custom storage holder. This is one I tried in my Expy. I made one where you could lift the cups out and hide my XDS. Not for instance access but to hide it in the car if needed. No one would know the gun is under the cups but forum members.

Where'd you find those red bins?

They are left overs from Milwaukee pack out boxes.

Damnit - just when I was about to trash the idea of doing the pack out plates and boxes in the bed.

You won’t regret it I’m still ridiculously happy with my set up.

@captain lead foot Have you posted anything about your front bumper/intercooler opening mounted lights? DIY or found a bracket to mount lights to?

Yes he did a write up about it if you search.

Bumper lights write up

Enough people bugging me about my front lights so here’s a write up with an install video, ( the files to large to post and I’m not smart enough to figure it out so dm me and I’ll send it to you) If you don’t have the means to build your own bracket I have a friend in Quesnel B.C. Canada that...

Leveled with AS2.5, method 18s, Baja boss 295/70/18.

The readylift air didn't work, was in conflict with something on the tremor that isn't on the regular. They're calling airlift on Monday to see about that, if not I'll get the RAS.

Mudflaps from rekgen.

I love it.

Where did you buy your mudflaps from? I can only find that style for the f250 / 350.

These are the latest pics I have.

Pending painting the side emblems, the interior trim, installing cup holder media and glove light, and installing the CAI.

Looking to order the intercooler and BOV in the next few weeks, and hopefully find an exhaust that works.

Also considering ordering the orange and black emblems from oemautoparts.

I'm going to lake Lanier next week, going to look for somewhere to get dirty and take some pics!

Did you ever get around to painting the side emblems? Curious to see how difficult it is.

I haven't yet. Hope to within the month.

They are from rekgen. Universal ones from them, if I remember correctly

Looks like steering column, Tremor orange could look cool on the spokes.

Color is pretty close. I'll post the DIY later, but all in all I'm happy with it. I plan to do more, this was the test run.

Had a few whiskeys, may or may not have ordered the rest of the interior trims, a spray gun and compressor plus paint, intercooler, and BOV.

Also emailed local shop to quote me the RC front coils and vertex rear shocks, camburg UCAs, load leveling bags install.

Who needs to retire, right?

This makes me feel better about my recent spending. Keep it up!

Yes, you'll need to spend a few k more to catch up.

You know Yakmeister, I don't know how proud I am of our cash crowns

I just put in the order with the shop for the RC 2.5 front, vertex rears, and the SPC control arms. Should be installed in a couple of weeks.

Skipped the bags for now because I don't have immediate towing needs and i can put that money elsewhere (audio, exhaust). I also already have an ARB, but the airlift works best with an airlift compressor and gauge so you can have them auto fill or work in increments. Still mulling this over, might just throw the RAS on and call it a day.
