I finished installing the fenders. Very happy with how they turned out. Before I put them on, I painted the parts of the cab and radiator support you can see with 3M Bed Liner spray paint.

I have 37's on order. Think I am going with the Falcons. I have heard really good reviews about them. The 35's get lost in the wheel well.

I had mentioned before, that I have a custom oil cooler. Her are a few pictures of it. It was custom made by a forum member (If he wants to solicit more he can speak up). What I found is, once the transmission overheats once, it will continue to do so very very easy. I had no issues for over a year and overheated it once in Mexico and was never able to keep it cool after that. After I installed this cooler I have had no more issues. He did an excellent job on the design and all I had to do was weld in two tabs and plumb the lines.

I like the looks and after Pismo I see how easy it is to heat up the trans.. That was a relatively cool day also. In the desert heat over 100 it would be next to impossible to coolit.. I was going to try a heavy duty RV cooler.. B&M super cooler about 79.00 or so...

I really dont think that will work, I know parts in mine are over $500. I am running two 10 inch coolers. I would look at the one Outlaw makes or can check with the forum member and see if he wants to do another one.
