The Shaker is FINALLY installed!!

Well, after decorating the wall behind my couch for over 5 months (long story that basically boils down to me not wanting to subject new paint to Denver's winter weather.), I got my Shaker hood painted & installed!!

I went & picked up my Quad Cab from the paint shop Thursday afternoon, and spent today wrenching away.

After ripping out the factory air box, my buddy & I did plugs, wires, cap & rotor. And, as we had to splice in a new upper radiator hose (part of the kit...as it needs to be relocated), I went ahead & took that opportunity to install my 180 degree thermostat.

We then got busy mounting the new air box. Which, I can say, is a PAIN IN THE @$$!! Took us forever to get the front mounting bracket in place, and then even longer to get the actual lower part of the air box to sit right.

I need to get some more photos, and then I'll update my web page. Not sure whether or not I'll get to it this weekend. Although, I will try. But for now I'm DONE!!

I'm also hot, tired, sun burned, dehydrated, and dirty....did I mention tired?!?

But here it is!!

The new & improved Dak
