1clean99's accuair rebuild

[Jared]

fuuuuuu, I think I will stick with needle gauges, money can be spent elsewhere.

i didnt mind the RE7s. my old shocks came with the kit and were too soft IMO. only reason i changed to the 2500s is because brett brought to my attention how they werent as big and wouldnt overhang as much on the cantiliver bar.

Cool thanks man, if you beat me to putting your truck back together let me know how the d2500s compare to the slams

Nice!

 

[Adjusted]

Subbed. Always like seeing these rebuilds

Where did u mount the gauge senders? I wish some of you were closer to help with my rebuild!

not bad, easier than running a air line into the cab

less shit to get a hole in it too imo

true billy, didnt even think of that.

true billy, didnt even think of that.

honestly i think the 1/8" airline i ran was easier to run than wiring would have been

 

[1clean99]

did some wiring last night. not using any crimp connectors...doing all soldering

here are the wires for the guage sending units (ground,power, dimmer)

here are the wires that go to the physical senders

before

after

here are the wires that go from vu4 to ecu
before

after

and here is a pic of where both sets of wires end up where the senders and vu4 are going to be mounted.

all these are going out a hole behind my seat at the bottom of my cab. they are also all lummed and ran alongside the factory harness for the taillights and such.

thats how my wiring enters mine, through the back of the cab

 

[1clean99]

the last couple fittings and plugs shipped today so hopefully i have them by the weekend. now i just gotta weld a plate to mount the senders and manifold on then i can start plumbing.

 

[Ginger]

btw i love how you cleaned up the wiring, thats one of my pet peeves

 

[1clean99]

Yeah it was pretty clean before. But I like to keep things as clean, simple, and grouped as possible

got my fittings in, manifold mounted, guages senders mounted and lines ran

guage senders

truck finally laid back out

gauges hooked up

video clip of the front laying out


drove the truck around and this setup is soooo much better. being able to control the switches more is alot easier

 

[1clean99]

since my bed is still off i went ahead and replaced my fuel pump since i think it was on its way out. truck would sometimes start up and die. then would start right up the second time

 

[James Pate]

Looks really good!

 

[mike.]

:nice:

 

[Smith]

Looking good dude!

 

[1clean99]

thanks guys


so i have left the truck aired up for a week and my front passenger and rear driver bag have a super small leak. the truck barely went down tho i am guessing because they offset each other?

fuel pump also did not fix my "start then die..start and runs fine" problem but atleast i got it out of the way.

hopefully this weekend the bed will go back on
