We are working on a few new upgrades next week, sorry I am on vacation until this evening. I will be typing up a few new install articles most likely tonight. You can also follow this build on www.wotmagazine.com under WOT NEWS.

What would you guys and gals see us install or do next? We do have a Gibson Performance Exhaust in the works!

I would like to see some roof lights "done right". I'm not knocking the way everyone runs the wires, I've done it too. I'm wondering what's available to make a waterproof seal where the wire goes into the roof. I haven't found anything online, but I haven't looked really hard either. I've even thought of looking at police cars to see how they did theirs. Probably drilled a hole and siliconed the hell out of it

I dunno honestly. I've never looked into it as I've never had roof lights on any of my past trucks. Id be interested as well but I think if and when I put lights on my roof Ill just pull a bolt out of the stock rack and run em that way. Convenient and easy no other holes in the roof if you ever want to remove em jsut pull the wiring and put the bolt back in.

Anyways WOT do y'all have plans for bumpers or brush guards or???

when ever i get the repairs under control and can get back into modding, i plan to use an electrical conduit hub
with a 90° and large dia heat shrink for mine. all can be had from home depot for a reasonable price for a water tight and (allegedly) air tight seal.
i saw that idea somewhere and it stuck with me. looks nice too.

as far as police cars the MPs zap the roof with a knockout punch and silicone it up like a microwaved slug.

WOT if i may make a suggestion, why not keep the theme going and drop a snorkle on her

That's actually a great idea I never thought about using something like that.

And a snorkle would look pretty cool!

Watching the thread.....and the zine.

why not dynoMax exhaust....? Cheaper....not flashy....

If this is a wheeling build, duals and other stuff end up getting in the way and/or torn up.
