Well i finally got around installing the SPX wheel on the Mule, and WOW! it sure made the turbo wake up fairly quick, a few wot runs on my hot setting and my egt would only hot 1300° for 10 secs before 1350° egt, thats 50° drop from just a wheel cant wait to try it while towing. Well enough chit chat heres a pic of it installed.

Purely time. If I have the time I'm too lazy lol. My front driveshaft has been waiting to go back in for about 2 weeks now, I also have a small break fluid leak on the farm truck that should really be addressed sooner than later too. Sigh. Not enough hours in the day.
