Thank you Tacozilla!

Hey Guys,

Little bit of an update: I have the custom audio sound radio up and running. My connector plugs were the culprits in giving me a spot of trouble there. I also mounted my second 5” alpine speaker under the centre of the dash. Works and sounds great. Just need to quiet the road noise down a bit when up at highway speeds. That will be remedied when I tackle the doors.
Got the Bilstein shocks in, what a difference in the ride! Albeit the old Ranchos were for a 1/2 ton I figure. And last but not least! The custom slider windows for the sides finally came yesterday, and I just had to get them in there. Really happy with how they turned out. Hopefully get into getting that rear seat covered in the next few weeks. Stay tuned.

Cheers,

Anthony

Cool deal man! I'm jealous of all the work your getting done lol. I was barely able to do struts and brakes on my DD due to this damn back of mine, still collecting parts here and there as money allows for the truck though.

Thanks Captainfab! That fabric is awesome, tip of the hat to SMS fabrics

Out with the old! New steering gear and borgseon shaft, coupler and rag joint. What a difference!

Also got an oil change in, new thermostat and rad hose. I’m going on holiday, touring in the panel. Heading to one of the gulf islands for a spell and then out to the Okanagan. See yeah guys
