I have been waiting for you to master this part for awhile. :P

But on a high note! I bought a billet input and DTT Stage 2 rebuild kit for my 47RH!

By the way, I still need one of them classy diesel tachs!

I'll see what I can do this weekend.

We put this back outside so we can get a couple of customer trucks in. It looks pretty sweet sitting there.

I don't think these guys have a kit, but it's the best parts on the market to do it. They have engine mounts, cross members (where needed), a/c comp brackets, pulleys, tach adapters, and all kinds of stuff. www.autoworldmt.com 406-727-8915 Ask for Dawna.

That sure would look cool, but the deer will go right through that.

He will more than likely end up with a bumper similar to this... Possibly..

Let me know before you buy any of it and I can get you a price.

**Dieselwrencher** · 12-10-2012, 06:03 PM

No progress has been made, but I did get a big dollar part purchased for it. Now I won't be as scared when I mash the skinny pedal!

I can't wait to hear and see it in action. Have you thought any more on lettering your truck?
