Mopar - D Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 It's been a couple weeks since my last up date here I've been figuring out how to set up and run the exhaust system and air in let and filter. This is what I've come up with after going through by parts boxes. I'm going with the muffler on the frame and a straight pipe going up. Also worked on the trailer sides filling in the wheel area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted March 11, 2017 Author Share Posted March 11, 2017 Thanks guys. it was a challenge finding references on the details to route these. Most of the pictures don't show the back side or with the cab raised up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 More progress on the exhaust system and the air cleaner. Still need to trim the stack on the air intake and build the air piping to the engine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 Little more work done tonight made a air deflector and cab mounted A/C from the parts boxes. Also cleaned up the front windshield and cut the glass for it. Also added the BMF on the Dodge letters. Looking to maybe get some paint sprayed on it this week end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
