This is my new Hayden oil filter relocation kit. This will help keep my engine running a little cooler, it will give me more oil capacity, allow me to change the filter. It also makes installing an oil cooler a lot easier! (Part # 291)

Electric fan to replace the mechanical fan & clutch. I took this off of a 1996 Mitsubishi Galant, I am going to utilize the plugs that are on the fan by taking the plug from a donor car and integrating it into the truck. That way removal and installation will be a lot easier.

I bought an 800 Watt Power Inverter from Advance Auto Parts, so now I will be able to use devices that requires 110V anywhere my truck will go!

I now have 5 mile range radios with automotive charger and base, so now I can keep in touch with fellow wheelers.

I got a tow hook that increases the versatility of my reciever hitch. It has a rating of 10,000 lbs. I am going to mainly use it in my custom front bumper (In progress) that will have a front reciever mount.

I bought and installed a used Chrome grille. It is in perfect condition, no broken tabs or missing screws. The "Ford" emblem might need to be replaced, but that is a minor detail.

Ya that was my plan too. Put the body lift in while i do the mounts, would save me doing all the work later. Another idea i had for mine was finding a newer cab and putting it on, cuz my floor has been patched b4 and i dont really like that idea but we'll see what happens.

Looks like a good start.. The money adds up fast doesn't it? I just finished a 4.0L OHV swap.. The SOHC swap is a lot of work, you'll need basically everything from the donor truck (even steering column). Check out my Ranger and tell me what ya think.
