Got the oil cooler mounted up and the lines run to it as well as the rest of the turbos. Pretty pleased with how it turned out.
The Oil cooler is water cooled and hooked up to a 180F thermostat.

I've been slow to post and provide updates on the youtube but that doesn't mean stuff hasn't been moving ahead.
I recently made some decent sized purchases for the truck.
Full Set of TLX36 Ohlins Coilovers
1500mm x 1500mm CNC Router (due in January)
The Ohlins were 21" units rather than the 14" design i was originally planning on. That said, these were such a good deal and such a better damper than i was planning on that I decided to make it work.
Re-did the front buckets and swapped up the rear design make things a work.
The CNC router will be a big part of the upcoming composites work. I have alot of BIG carbon fiber pieces to be made (inner bed panels, carbon wheel tubs, internal tailgate skin etc) and the CNC router is going to take a significant amount of cost and labor out of the equation. So yes... not as much progress, but there is a method to my madness. Should make thing move much much faster once its here.
I also recent got my wheel and QD mount as well as the paddle shifters. Right now i just have a 3D printed mount for the paddles but it will be billet aluminum and anodized.
Got bedsides from a local yard as well and have been working on getting them cut up and mounted the way I like.
The youtube updates are a ton of fun, but I've got a new work promotion (time suck) and a 2.5 year old and an 8 month old, so if my extra time is between making youtube vids and making progress, Ill be making progress everytime.

I also recently got the interior of the truck 3D scanned so that when the router comes, I am prepped with design and ready to start making my interior panels.
