Now I think I'll look into the paddle shift mod.

Looks awesome!

Changed oil in transfer case, looked and smelled good.

Changed transmission fluid and filter. Fluid looked and smelled great, no strange stuff in the pan and only a very small amount of gray stuff on the magnets.

Replaced water pump as it was getting noisy. Replaced hoses, tensioners, belts, thermostat and installed VAC under drive pulleys while I was at it.

Used all OE parts and fluids. No bolts, screws, etc left over and no leaks on start up.

Rewired controller for electric fan that I have in place of clutch fan. Didn't like the way it looked and went to larger gauge on some of wiring that was getting too warm.

Replaced the single bracket for nitrous tank with a dual tank bracket. Added a 15# tank to supplement the 10. Set them up to feed one line. Shot pressure wasn't staying constant for long runs.

Changed the settings on the meth controller to start and max out sooner and to read injector pulse width and boost 50/50.

There aren't any. I will be doing some dyno runs after I swap out the diffs for 4.10s, maybe then.

Removed dummy torch socket and fitted a dual outlet USB socket in its place. 12 volts wiring was attached to rear of dummy plate from factory. Plastic opening required some subtle enlarging to allow module to click into place.
