Project Update :  Recap with a Splash

When we started out with this truck we made a list of things to accomplish. Let's revisit it and see how we are doing.


3-5 in lift  /  4 inch lift installed
Dump the 20in dubs for 16in and 33in mud tires  / 33in Nittos installed
Front and rear bumpers / In production, just waiting on the first run.
Sliders / Installed
Front and rear lockers / They need to be installed
HD drag link and track rod / In production
Rear links that are not made from Fiberglass / Nothing yet
Lock the Borg Tcase some way some how. / Locked and working on a selectable option
HD rear shaft / Produced and waiting to be installed
HD CV and shafts  / Out for pricing and possible production
Disconnect the BCM from the ECU "incase of failure the truck will still run" / I had a confirmation that this can be done just waiting on software to do it.

There was one more thing on the list and will get to that in a minute.  Out of the 11 things listed above.
6 are complete
2 are in production
2  have a promising future
and one we did not even look at yet.
I feel like we're doing a pretty good job thus far.

Now that brings us to the last thing on the list waterproof the BECM.

I think we may have come up with something that could change the way we all think about our automotive computers and water. Here is a sneak peek at our new water guard system.

The water guard system is a chemically bonded bit of magic to the outside of the board that prevents water molecules from penetrating. The advantage is air can flow naturally over the board and it will not cause overheating issues.

What do you guys think?
