I am quoting a line from a email I sent to G this morning about the wheels and valve stems... *second thought*.... I think im gonna go buy some of them LED valve stem caps for the GA trip rofl

No... I think it was hot rod deuce that egged me into that move...

lol... oh you missed that post or part of the thread??? Their electric and on a remote control key chain... Kenny is right when he says you really have to spend a LOT of time looking the truck over to find all of the stupid things I've wasted my weekends and nights doing to it...

Ah yeah.. the stems... see pic... I should also point out like Kenny was saying these rims are reversible to fit front or rear with or WITHOUT flipping the rear hubs on the truck. Thank Gerhard for that genius design feature, he did a lot of thinking and plotting to lay out the prints for these...

RE: looking good Ah.... I had composite lights and canned them... I have brand new ones and dont want them... Im going to put in LED's soon but Im fiddling with what manufacture... SOme of these vendors would piss off the Pope!

Ah... Some pics from the past several days... I had to re-do the whole head liner... Cheap arse glue!!! It was sagging so when I added the over head I yanked it back out and made another. The overhead houses the radio nicely... Its not exact what I wanted but for the time being it covers up...

Peanut gallery!

Some more work from the weekend... I had to pull the window channels out I bought last year... They never did work right... Something about NOS 20 plus year old junk, I paid almost 175$ for the 4 pieces. *annoyed*... The rubber / plastic that held the felt material in place was degrading and...

Eh... someone around here gave me the stOOpid idea of yanking the gauges out and installing a LCD touch screen monitor... Which means digital on screen gauges, wireless internet, GPS, satellite and constant data logging for the engine... I think THAT might make the CXT guys a little weak in the...
