Got it sprayed down and it looks good. Very happy with the final product. Even with the doors off it’s noticeably quieter. No more squeaks or rattles. It will be even better when I slap the doors back on. I did have one setback. The rear passenger break caliper is now pouring brake fluid...

Got it taped up and ready to spray. Almost Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well I have some catching up to do. 4l80 is in the truck and it is awesome. It really is how the truck should be from the factory. Best mod yet. While on the rack I discovers my pittman arm was jacked up so I ordered a new pittman arm and idler arm. At the higher speeds tire balance...

Well, after more than a year the stars have aligned. I have a little time, a good friend to help me and a lift! Next stop 4L80e!

I was able to get the jack rails on today as well. That fixed two big concerns of mine. Not having a spare or riding around with a 165lb projectile in the bed has bothered me from go. Also not having any rocker protection has been a real issue with me. I have had two occasions where I almost...

Drug in last night from a job that took me away from the Georgia Rally early. I have a little extra time this morning so I slapped on the tire carrier. It’s just like many government products. It’s overly complicated and over priced! It does work as advertised though. Now I have to...

Slow progress on my roof rack. It’s a re-purposed H1 rack. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am having a buddy cut out plates to mount on the front A pillar, the B pillar and a cross bar going to each fender with a backing plate. They will all go in with riv-nuts and bolts. I doubt the body flex is going to be much of an issue with 6 mounting points. There is very little flex at the...

Well this party started today. Been looking for a place to store some tools and a few lockable boxes. Also may do a rooftop awning for the little one to have some shade. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well I can now winch from up front. Thanks to Michael Vaiden for the winch and brackets. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s in there. Still got some significant plumbing to do but it’s hanging on the frame. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well I made a little progress on the rear winch instal. I got the new bolts in the upper A arm to hold the bracket. They are a little long but it’s what I could get. They will look better with a washer and the winch plate attached. I had to drill out the holes in the inner brackets for the...

Well life has been in the way of doing any major mods to my truck lately. I have swapped a few things like the backup camera. I had to do something different because the new airlift bumper covered the old camera. I went to a license plate style camera and left the original display and hardware...

Rapco only has one 383 green. That’s the same color I used on the doors.

It was a spraybomb. I am going to have to use a gun for the rest of the truck. Much cheaper for that muck real estate.

I did a little Rapco remodeling to my doors. They turned out good but now I have the paint the whole truck to match. It’s a freaking vicious cycle. I picked up an H1 roof rack from a guy locally. It’s made to ride in the rain channel of the hard top. I don’t have a hard top or a channel so I...

This week it’s been hack new parts up week. On my last truck I used the Those Military Guys upper console. It was nice but the construction left a lot to be desired. It was pretty flimsy and the welds were terrible on the tabs that hold it to the A pillar. I figured there had to be a better...

I was talking about the tag being he best accessory. I got it registered and tagged. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a campout I forgot about with the nephew this weekend so I have been thrashing to get things reasonably ready. The steering wheel was chipped so I wrapped it with some para cord to hold me over until I can find a new style wheel. I also installed a “console”. It’s got chargers and...
