Really nice looking rig brotha are you able to run tools with it? Do you need an air tank or is that for he smaller air compressors I have a twin also but not mounted yet

Thanks man!

I don't think I can run air tools off of it without a tank. I have to go back to my buddies shop in a week or so so I can try it when I'm there for you. I will keep you posted.

I agree...it is a lot of money for the sPod, but makes wiring very easy.

You Jeep look real nice!

Yea very true it does. The nice thing about the ARB twin compressor is that it already come prewired for the air lockers so all you have to do is install the switch. So very little wiring is needed.

Thank you on the compliment!

Yes I've always had the arb and was planning on selling it and got the power plant but now I decided to keep it so whenever I get air lockers I have one and also I can use it for tools at home or trail you need some air I got plenty of it hehehe
 
Gave knuckles a bath today. It was the nicest day around here in a while so I thought I would clean em up. I don't want people thinking I wheel it or anything

its a little harder then you think. the heat cycles you need to do really limit your driving distances you can do in one shot as well as hw much gas you can give it.

I bet it's very tempting to stomp on the gas as you realize the sudden and immediate feel of increased power.
 
Regearing in 2 weeks. Your torture should be ending just as mine starts!! But I'm gonna leave jeep with them for a week and they said they would start break in by driving it home each day.... a bunch of short 15 minute drives

Lol yea it is tough. I have been keeping it under 2k rpm when I'm driving. I REALLY want to test it to feel the power that I gained back but still have 250+ miles to go :(

That means as soon as you are done with your initial break in you can take a nice long road trip. :thumb:

I was able to get 250 miles in before heading on a 250 mile road trip to Hidden Falls ORV park here in TX. I did a total of 500 break in miles since I intend to tow a trailer.

Congrats on the swap. :beer:

Hmmm so I should be good then on my heat cycles since I have done about ten of them lol. I guess I can do longer trips now but still easy as hell on the peddle. Nice! I plan on trailering my jet ski so I'm doin the full 500 like you.

Thank you BTW.
