One thing at a time......

Trying to be be artistic when I got bored this afternoon.

The next one is of me being "stupid" more than "artistic" the t-case was grounded out.
irrigation ditch i forgot about, i got out by placing floor mats infront of the tires and it gave me enough traction to jam the hell out of it.

Yoy haven't Scootin. It was already wired when I bought the truck but it wasn't working so I know how it was done. It is bolted down and the light were ran through one of the bolt holes with a rubber boot. Then it was ran through the top and second metal part of the roof and down into the cab through the visor area.

I moved it from the visor area b/c that is what made it not work by rubbing and grounding out. So there is a little area where the top and bottom of the metal headliner meet at the A pillar. So I was able to get the wires do through there and then behind the molding and then into the dash where it's wired to come on with the running lights. Hope this helps and I didn'r confuse you.

Rollinsqrbdy · 01-11-2010, 03:33 PM

Heres my favorite one. So far though, this is the day i brought her home.

Scootin 81 C20 · 01-11-2010, 07:00 PM

Does it have a single wire that is power and no ground like mine? If it has a signle wire, how is it wired into the switch?

Slick17 · 01-11-2010, 08:54 PM

Mine has a ground and hot wire. The ground wire I left where the p/o had it at the visor mount. The hot wire is the one that I ran to the running light hot wire. You may have a ground wire somewhere that may not be visable once installed. But inorder to work you would need a power and ground somewhere.

Scootin 81 C20 · 01-11-2010, 10:13 PM

Ok, cause I've heard it grounds through one of the mounting holes. I may end up running the wires individually from each light and then narrow them down to 1 hot and 1 ground to the switch. Think it'll work? I did it on my christmas lights.

Yeah it will work. Just like your truck. Everything needing power has all the hot wires running either to a fuse box or junction and then one power terminal to the battery.

Here's me using my new '78 for the first time as a TRUCK with a small load of wood in the back. Waiting to get some 275/60s on it, and black out the headlight bezels and put in my black '73 grille and then it is gonna be really photo worthy!

I will say this rig is gorgeous, i had a chance to buy a 79 GMC jimmy in 1993 but the body was bad. I shouldve bought it.I bought a 83 blazer, i think my next square is a blazer/jimmy 4x4 like this 1.

thanks

Sniper X · 01-13-2010, 07:16 PM

Not really artistic, but i took this at Yesterdaves drive in on the parking block where he had a 1957 Vette parked when they were open as the sign. They had just closed due to him getting divorced and the Vette was gone so I parked the blazer up there and shot this shot with a cheap digital still camera. It is pretty cool though.
