Yeah those fans get replaced all the time but I'm actually removing the bottom piece and making custom pull/push an configuration and run it like that and thanks for the bad *** amp complement 😁 those old school amps are the s*** although they are xtremely power hungry... Went to try it with my friends set up (200 A fused 2ga wire ) and it blew the fuse just powering on 😁😁

first of all the audio.

i upgraded all my wiring to welding wire and added a second battery so im running 1/0 ga full copper wire and 4 ga full copper everywhere.

I somewhat modified the passenger side quarter panel and it now sits better... Here are some Picts.

But first, something to keep me warm.

I know it needs to be lowered in the front but until the coilovers are bought it will stay the way it is.
