figured out the 4wd issue. it was just the switch on the transfer case, the weather pack sealing ring was missing and terminals had corrosion, scraped them off for now and works perfect again! going to replace the switch,weather pack connector and terminals when i get a chance, but works good for now.

your truck does/is look/ing good love what you've done to it.
can't believe you did that to your upper intake. it looks REAL good. i removed the casting marks also but painted it black. did the same on the lower half. removed the mounting tabs for the FFM and moved it to the inner wheel well.
......start a new life in a free state, maybe even meet a wife if all goes well.....
you might want to meet a SINGLE gal in Texas.
if you didn't mind the humidity, move close to Houston, park your truck in my drive, work on it with me and then work on mine.

upper intake is the part that bolts to the 'intake' with the 10mm bolts. the first polished job you did BTW. sittin' in the basement? are you holding out? think you're not posting all what you're saying.
lots of 'cool' chicks here but a proper one is a girl from Canada, like i have. go to your local hospital and hit one up!
