some new mods to the 93
Well, finished up the mods to the truck today, for a while...
Was having a hell of a time trying to find a new, good condition brake line for my parking brake, so I decided for the time being, that I'd just run a manual line lock as a parking brake. It works like a charm. mounted the shut off valve under the dash,
engine bay hardware, two braided steel lines, that I tapped into the brake lines between the splitter and the proportioning valve, and various fittings
and rebadged my truck for s and giggles. I ended up rebadging it as a 3500, since my buddy happened to have an extra set of ram 3500 badges floating around his garage....saved me about 30 bucks, and since I eventually want to convert to a dually, I figured it wouldn't hurt to start it out early...
For anyone who might be interested, here's the complete parts list of everything I needed to buy for the line lock kit.
(1) 3/8-24 x-3 steel adapter
(2) 1/8 NPT to -3 str steel adapter
(the following parts are basically two 5 foot sections of braided steel brake lines)
#3 x 3/8-24 i.f. tubing adapter steel
-3 s/s tfe .040 wall
-3 straight swage hose end w/7/16 nut
(1) 1 brake shut off valve Swagelock PN# 48010

AlSo installed cheap sunpro boostgauge from vatozone. Found out I'm pushng 25 pounds of boost. I'm pretty happy wh that, but what's the safe max for the 1st gen intercooler turbos?
