Thanks guys, now that I've slept on it, the 'swaps' and 'switch's' will be easy. Like the alternator for example, I'm not leaving a high output it in the mule. The main thing will be e fuel, turbo, IC, trans cooler, injectors, exhaust.

Forgot, put swamps HVHF IDM into the mare and the 140v IDM that I had in the mule for years back in. Another thing that I've had done already is the bed rino (rhino sp?)coated, turned out really nice!

This is going to be a very interesting thread, sure wish I could have came down for the winter, I would have loved to have spent some dime helping out. Ya never know I might have just learned something too How is your suspension on the mare? Mine would be a little better if I had air bags as it just don't set quite level enough for me. I handles good though, my pin weight is a little high at close to 3k.
