ok so I have been tinkering here and there ... tear down rebuild over and over again ... lol

electrical almost done and happy ... some pics of progress

Niiice.  Bet she kicks butt on the trails when you're done with all that torque.

Clean electrical work. 

it all looks great man, i may have missed it but whats the conversion cost up to this point/projected?

its kind of shocking when you tally it up....I had to stop counting at 5+k just under the hood , I wonder how many wife's know about this forum?

it would be kind of hard to argue that vacation we could not afford this year.., or "you really don't need that heart transplant do you"......

Same here.  My little tracker has cost me a lot.  But, I paid more than normal market value for the base vehicle...but I couldn't pass it up, when I test-drove it, it was oh so clean for being a 20 year old truck!  I could probably sell it now for $1k-$2k less than invested...but NAH i'll keep it forever.
And good thing I don't have a wife otherwise she'd find this pretty fast...i spend over half my internet time on this site.  If only I'd apply as much research into my college papers that I apply into my Tracker, then I'd actually learn something in those classes!

well the wife went on a long vacation ... wont be back ... my 3 kids are almost grown only one left in the house.

So now its just two boys and lots of toys !

lmao we all live here like trolls  

I want so bad to sell the sami "not going to happen" and buy a kick to convert to diesel .... well next year maybe, my 17 yr old son will pull his head out of his rectum and I can give him the sami ....

wow, I was thinkin about doin that conversion but with what im making now.... eff that 

be sure and post dyno results when you get it all done!

So... You on the road now deeprecon1?
