    Super excited to be working on the truck again! Excited to get it finished for good. And remember, DREO 704s air circulator fan: bit.ly/3Jlt3u3 DREO is having a Mother's Day sale on bit.ly/3JIZIdf Save up to $110 until May 12th and get an extra $10 off using my code GINGIUM10.

      You could put limit straps on the rear end because you don't need a whole lot of travel for drifting so that way when you use the jacking point in the rear you don't have to go up as high, and when you have to disassemble the rear end you just take who bolts out on the axle and the actual will drip all the way down

    Not to be internet car diagnosis guy, but if you increased the size of your fuse from 10A to 30A and now the ECU doesn't turn on it's possible that you fried it.
    If something connected to the ECU was pulling too much current/shorted initially and you kept putting bigger fuses in, it could have exceeded the capacity of the internal ECU circuits and let the magic smoke out.

    As far as the rear jacking point is concerned with the axle droop, you could always build a little latch of sorts (like a toolbox latch, but beefier) that will hold the axle at ride height as you jack the rear end up. All you'd have to do is reach over the radiator and latch it, then lift the truck up a couple inches instead of over a foot off the ground.

    I know you're going for a clean/shaved engine bay, but running those coolant lines on the outside of the frame rail is pretty sketchy, as shown at minute 7:45. I'm just worried about getting into an accident and then spilling coolant, or even when driving by yourself and getting a leak. Still curious about the engine issue, but if you do make a new harness, I highly recommend also running it on the inside of the frame rails and not up under the fender wells, for the same reason of getting messed up in an accident or damaged etc. Cheers! Love the truck overall!
