What an exibitioinist

She's just... WIKID
Hankook 285/70R/17



I will be adding a few more pictures with my newly aquired mods soon

New rear for her
Metal-Tech rear tube bumper installed today



She inhales
TrueFlow XDi extreme duty intake


Fresh air
Hood scoop Mod. Expanded metal, drilled opening for air flow


One note about this mod. I was playing in some serious mud and snow this weekend in Flagstaff without any increased mess in her engine compartment . With the combination of the intake/exhaust and hood mod, My gears weren't hunting as much going to flagstaff as in previous trips. For those who don't know, Flagstaff is about 6500 ft. I am at 1215 ft here. It definitely gave me a few ponies and torque on the bottom.
WIKID got her new name tag

I have a very good friend who put this together for a Christmas gift. It looks awesome hanging in my home office


I decided to remove the control box on WIKID'S bumper and send it to the engine compartment. Longer cables made it possible to mount in under the XD-I intake with easy access to the plug in for the wired remote. Hopefully I won't need that since I installed the wireless controller inside the control box. Everything should stay more dry now.


I like the cleaner look under the bull bar now. I didn't like the large gap inside the bumper. It looked unfinished


I decided to go get some steel and fab something up to fill the hole. I went to the steel place and looks through the scraps. I found some 3/4" angle and some plate steel with holes in it, brought it home. 9 bucks is what it cost. I used the dimensions from the cut out and started fabbing,
This is what I ended up with


Here it is fit in place . I used Magnetic strips along the front to keep it in place so I still have access to the winch control bar. I almost didnt need anything since the angle fit it nicely, but I decided to use the magnets for a clean appearance

Re: "WIKID" puulboy's other gal

Very nice write up! I do like the rims; never seen that style before and the offset is perfect, giving a nice wide stance to wikid.

Does the 3" exhaust end under the cabin portion of the vehicle or is that just my imagination? I ask because that wouldn't pass PA inspection - exhaust gases may filter back into the cabin (that's what the state says, not me)!

Technically its inside the rear frame which would be inside the cabin portion. I guess I will never pass inspection in PA
Good point for all of those who have vehicle inspections to worry about.
I would just have to add a tailpipe for inspection
thanks
Good information
Don
