I dealt with this lovely situation....had to pull the entire crossover off the truck and take it to a local shop. I didn't have an EZ-out big enough to get the body of the switch out. Now to put everything back together and put coolant in it.

The front strikers are slotted, the rears aren't. I've heard of guys having to drill the body to move the striker down, and that was my plan, but the more I looked at it the more I was concerned that a) this would weaken the body, and that b) this was not really what was needed to get the doors...

My left rear x-door simply would not close. If I raised it up high enough to align with the striker, it hit the roof support at the top. So, today, in the snow, I detached the roof on that corner and installed some fender washers between it and the C-pillar and I raised the door frame/roof...

I did look at the skins that Federal sells. Considering those

It really is, but the aluminum doors had to go!

Doors: They need a crap ton of work to make them "nice", but I'll get 'em there.

I replaced my glow plugs today. A 1/4" socket-wrench and a 10mm deep well socket was all I needed and I only had to do the passenger rear plug from inside the truck. The others were all easily reachable from the front. The whole job took about 30 minutes. The old plugs were actually in...

When you get your parts, let me know and I'll come help wrench!

No, they're bolted right onto the spindle.

Little stuff over the weekend. I installed the updated, self-cancelling turn signal switch. It's great but the cancelling ring that screws into the steering wheel has too much flex in it so the pins were flexing out of the way when contacting the cancellation cam instead of actually...

I have the XD Series XD798 18" wheels with 37" Cooper Discoverer tires on mine. I like 'em.

I installed a rear-view mirror so I don't feel so blind, and I took a razor blade to the overlay on the speedo because it was all torn and cloudy, so I very carefully cut away the clear center area and left the trailer and overspeed ranges. Looks way better now. Before I could barely see the...

That is a thing of beauty.

This is a great read on diesel additives. Well worth your time. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/76-speciality-forums/64-maintenance-fluids/177728-lubricity-additive-study-results.html

Gave my truck its first oil and filter change today and replaced the oil pressure gauge and sending unit with a Bosch mechanical gauge. Now I get to figure out why my pressure is so high.
