Well crap... I went to install the winch and was pretty much all set and then found out I couldn’t mount one of the charge pipes on the CAC. The BOV hits the winch mount plate. I’ll have to reach out to Full Race and see what they think. It’s the mount they recommend, but they may have used the turbosmart BOV that is a bit smaller.

Waiting to hear from FR, shot them a email with some pics to look at.

In the meantime I wanted to get at least something done.

Installed new cones on the intake and ordered up a decent first aid kit and winching recovery gear.

Full Race is sending me out a modified elbow to work with the winch mount and the Tial BOV. Looks like they didn't test fit the CAC with the Tial or eBOV elbows to checlk for fitment. So if anyone else is looking at doing this, go with the Turbosmart BOV.

Decided to take some time off next week to get some stuff done on the truck. I will get some pictures up of all the goodies going in. Full Race CAC elbow and BuiltRightIndustries Bed Rack system should be here by Friday.

I also went and picked up the Power Stop rotors I ordered a while ago and also grabbed a mount and handle holder for the Hi-Lift Jack.

So it may be a bit ambitious, but the goal would be to:
- Install the winch
- Install the Fox 2.0's
- Get an alignment
- Modify bed rack so I can access my 12v/5v outlets
- Install bed rack system
- Mount Jack, Fire Extinguisher, Axe, Hatchet, Sawzall, First Aid Kit and RotoPax Gas can on racks.

Ordered up a set of "raptor" grill lights, thanks @rbrown for the info.

Thanks to a clearance sale at a online store, I ended up ordering up everything I need to get a rack installed above the bed. This would be to mount the Roof top tent on top of or bike racks, cargo basket, etc. All Yakima stuff, so should be plenty strong enough for what I need. I doubt I'll see these parts by next week, but fingers crossed.

Also grabbed some Penzoil Platinum to get a oil change done too while I'm at it next week.

Full Race custom elbow showed up today, so I took an hour this afternoon to get the winch mount installed to make sure all was good.

Bed Rack Panels also showed up late this afternoon. Things are starting to pile up in the garage and the Wife is asking questions, lol.
Sounds like my wife. lol
 
The modern world is tiny. The distance from Jersey to an island in the Caribbean is about 60 milliseconds. Lol

I was able to get the winch in tonight. It was a bit of a fight to get the couplers back on the CAC and the winch was a bit larger than the WARN that Full Race used. I had to space up the CAC bracket to clear the free spool lever.

The control box will need some more attention for a proper mount, for now it’s safe and out of the way.
