chad's h3 build

Looking good Chad! Can't wait for what's next!

ok i ordered some material to make a much needed mod, i have put thought into it for a while but just couldn't think how exactly i wanted to do it. i'm gonna be making a cup holder for a nalgene bottle or 32oz gatorade bottle, i think i may finally have a good plan for it to look good and be strong and functional. i always hate how my bottle is all over the place.

trying to add photos but having problems. anyways lucky for me i have a new problem, my input speed sensor went bad in the transmission and have to have the transmission pulled and get it replaced soon. shifts hard and got the code from the check engine light.

 

[RamRod]

just posting some older pics after i finally got some 315/ 75r-16's on the truck, finally figured out how to shrink them and had the time to put some pics up. my truck is done from the shop with my transmission overhaul. i'll be picking that up monday and putting my new radiator, electric fans and transmission cooler on. Got some steel waiting for me back home too for some rock rails and work on my trailer fenders to make them bigger for the 35's for it too. I'll post more pics later once thats done.

did this a few weeks ago, but I added 2 electric fans that are thermostat controlled, and the external transmission cooler and the radiator. Also in the pic you can see the beginnings of a new look i am going for but not completely finished yet.

Nice fan setup, what model and type of e fans did you end up going with? I have been looking to see if I could find a dual fan setup as well. Do you have any before and after temps from your new setup?

 

[chad]

i got them off eBay, they seem pretty well made, and as for temps i have no idea, i don't have anything to monitor it with, and i haven't driven it hardly at all since i did this so i don't even think those fans have came on yet while driving. they do work though because i tested them.

replaced these old speakers that where not working with some new ones.

heres a pic where i'm at now, still gonna do more trim in tan and try to get away from black.

 

[chad]

I've started working on some rock sliders but may be a week or two before i can get these done.

[chad]

so i have recently added in the last couple weeks the rock sliders, a cup holder i'll post pics of later and i put in some kicker marine grade speakers in the rear doors.
