Thanks Norm! It’s always a fun hunt. I think I fixed the Amazon issue. Search for Amazon customer Buffalobwana and the list should be there.

Oh good. All the part numbers are invisible. Perfect. I am really bad at trying to share these Amazon part numbers! oh well. Here is my Antelope.

I must have done it wrong because even I can’t find the list. I can tell you the numbers, which are also listed above. Amazon is kind of good at directing you what to buy next, but I noticed that it did want you to buy one of the one that gringletaube said not to buy. Someone can can correct me...

Oh, me too, I was just commenting on the weather and the General price of Corn these days and how much I HATE the new iPhone keyboard that has a return key where it’s not supposed to be.

I think I could build that exact model for under $200. Probably a stronger one. Shipping will be a beach, but we can look into options.

98G to the rescue... again!

Just before I installed it, I noticed one of the switches had a loose contact. I couldn’t find any solder, said, “Eh, it’ll ride.” It didnt. Started flickering after just a short time. So, down it comes. I believe this is a sign from God saying, “you got it this far, go ahead and install the...

Vroom, vroom.

Actually, I’m enjoying the pictures. I should say, “Less words, more pics!”

Less pics, more vroom, vroom!

The camera doesn’t capture the coolness of the red light. Makes it look orange. Trust me, it’s cool! The led really Lights up the cab. Pretty pleased.

That’s about it. I wired up the lights to the switches and ran a lead down to my power source behind the seat. And mounted it. The final routing of the cables about as clean as you can get them

Notice the aluminum finish from beginning to end. I use a vibratory sander with 100 grit and make tiny circles, as tight as possible, then, experiment with sanding in large circles until every bit of shine is gone. Use a fan to blow the aluminum dust away as you do this.

I spent about 2-3 hours making a 7 relay board for the LED lights I’m planning on putting on the truck. Modern LEDs are draw so little power that relays aren’t really necessary, but, first, I wanted to clean up the electrical mess behind the seat and second I wanted the LED light Wiring to...

Now to mount the radio, I had to move the crew boxes in a little to ensure stability, and in order to accommodate proper mounting, I welded an additional piece of 1” sq tube to the main frame to mount crew boxes farther in. I drew outlines on the aluminum and secured aluminum to frame...

I’ll try to find the link to this LED light bar. It’s super bright easy to install and happens to be 12” (the exact width) and 12/24v too. I had some really cool toggles with red spring loaded covers that I was going to use on another project, so, I put them here, can order more for the other...

Now for the electrical. Red Light: your normal red marker light does not throw enough light to light up the cab sufficiently for “chips and salsa night ops” so, I removed the normal rubber light mount that comes with a full marker light and made my own. I have some LEDs that really are crazy...

Fit aluminum plate, lights (notice use of marker light for red light “night-ops” lighting ... more on this later) a white LED strip from Amazon that I’m very impressed with and Radio and use red marker to mark locations. Note shiny aluminum finish. I really like this thickness. It’s rigid, easy...

Last week I built an overhead console to hold: * VIC 3 main box * two crew boxes * Augis phone to VIC-3 interface system * Red overhead light (preserve night vision, for night ops, to get chips and salsa for the game) * regular white overhead light (to get chips and salsa for the game, when...

That is the initiation. Break some bones on your truck. Do you sell it, or carry on? Those who sell were never meant to be FMV owners.
