My b2200

Xoloanon

New tires mounted and balanced, changed the Rearend gear oil, started wiring the headlight blinker and running lights. Got most of the electric fan controller mounted and wired in also.

Sweet!

Drilled the spot welds out of the main fuse bracket and moved it down beside the battery and re welded it. Trimmed the edge of the battery tray off and ran all my harness under it. Waiting on some loom to wrap it but only place the harness will really be visible is by the alternator. Passenger side fender is pretty clear. Moved the coolant over flow and washer fluid bottle to the core support and pulled the slack in the harness from passenger side to raise the harness up under the fender.

Anyone wanting to know this flasher relay fixes the fast blinkers when you change to led bulbs.

My brother from another mother .. lol, that looks amazing. Apparently we are on the same path.

As I've said before, you're a few steps ahead of me, lol

Great Job

P.S.
Since this is a little more than a daily and little less than a show car, let me share one critique, which I am sure is on your bucket list to address...
Consider a side post battery, that way you can lastly somewhat hide the terminals and perhaps later fabricate a custom cover that will help secure the battery and shield the cables from site .. I would make a panel that drops on to the battery and perhaps bolts on to the fender to secure it also .. As marked on your picture.

I’ll probably look for a better battery when I start driving it. I just went to Walmart and got the cheapest battery they had that would fit so I could start testing my electrical. $69 vs almost $200 from the parts stores.

Amen to that!!
I kinda like those battery terminals & covers......gonna have to look them up! Name brand please?

Or $300 for an optima Red top .. Don't know how I know that number .. lol

Cool! Never heard of them before, but they have some nice stuff. Thanks for the info!

Xoloanon

Soon as the vbands show up I should be building a full exhaust.

kz6fittycent

Xoloanon That is going to sound REALLY good.

OGMB2K

OK Lucy, you have some splaining to do ..

Is that a performance cat you plan on installing ahead of the muffler? Or is it a resonator tip you'll put as the outlet for the exhaust?

Xoloanon

Resonator that goes before the muffler. Suppose to help with not making it so loud.

kz6fittycent

Xoloanon yeah I wish I'd added one to my exhaust. It's not loud at all but a resonator would've helped with keeping a low idle drone from developing. Usually happens when I'm pulling into a parking lot. It makes the whole cab "resonate" and everyone hates it.

OGMB2K

That's what I was hoping .. Please plan on providing a "sound" video once on and running. It would be greatly appreciated ..

Xoloanon

What’s the best way to get video on here?

MazdaMitch

Xoloanon streamable.com gonupload a video and copy the link and paste it here. Sign up there so the video will stay longer than the default 2 days.
Or if you got a Gmail you got a YouTube upload there and paste a link.

Xoloanon

Blinkers and running lights flashing at normal speed with that flasher relay changed.
