Re: PO has me PO'd
Thanks Ariz., working on the motivation, but this old girl has fought me every step of the way
 Seems like she doesn't want to be gussied upNext project is finding a 1 ton 2 speed rearend Yeah, I know I have to adjust my headlights  Since I have NOS van lights I have to make up a bracket. You can see why my headlights are out of adjustment  Horn wire is the last of the plug and play for this side...problem is the PO had 6 horns mounted down there. Gotta find out what is stock

Re: PO has me PO'd
Tun Tavern no longer exists, having burned down in 1781. Its original location is now occupied by Interstate 95. The National Museum of the Marine Corps in Quantico, Virginia contains a Tun Tavern-themed restaurant with a lunch menu and alcoholic beverages and bread pudding.

Wagner Halogen Headlights, really white light, 25 bucks a pop. The new relays really put the power to the lights, keeping it off of the 40 year old switch  Thanks Tynee for the voltage regulator, good people on this board  New relays for the electric fan and the electric water pump  working on the electric fan install...had to modify the alum. rad. mounts again, this time it was because the harness got thicker with the relays on the passenger side...hindsight, mount all the relays on the drivers side  Ended up cutting the mount horizontal, then making two cuts vertical with the cutoff wheel, then tapped the end back to close up the joint

Don't do it, we use salt on the roads in the winter...lots of salt.  Jim, I've used those relays for the headlights before too, it's an excellent mod for sure. Nice report, didn't know you were injured, sorry to hear it, thanks for jambing around on the walker to get the pics tough.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Looking at that pic of the relays reminds me I want to add side markers to my Blazer. Can you look at your harness and see which wire the side marker lamp taps off of? I don't know tho, its looking a lot like a nearly complete truck to me! Keep up the good work, Thanks, Jeff.
