Job almost complete

Well I worked a little here and there and I finally got the Brake controler and the 7 pin plug for the 5er and the best thing is they all work perfictly. now I have to get the hitch installed that will happen tomorrow at C World. Then the fun begins to calabrate the new P-3, It came with a 3 inch CD on how to do it, very simple after you watch it. Just 500 more miles before we can tow with it.

Nice job! I like where you put the 7-way. I had ours put further back (above the wheel well) and wish it were further forward so that we could put a fifth wheel V box in the back of the truck.

Don you could give it a good test coming to the Spring Rally and then we can all admire your new truck. You will love the power goig up the mountain roads and the Exhaust brake coming down the other side.

Don.
I cant wait to get the Monty on this truck to see just what she will do. I can feel the power differance just going solo to the old Ford.
The exost brake is realy somthing to look at, the turbo company made it part of the turbo prity neat.
the man that purchased the 96 has a Lance Cab Over he said it weighs around 3200, and has to have anchor suports welded to the rear of the frame. But happy with it so far.


On Edit:
Camping World put the hitch on today no welds, they did a great job. My rubber floor mat also arrived today for the bed of the truck, all I have to do is the cut outs for the rails to sit through the mat, then get some more miles on it for the big pull.
