Bought a Raider Renegade high rise topper for this truck today for $50 via a seller on Kijiji. It has a light mounted inside it that i will need to add a harness from the battery to it to make it work. More then likely once i have it permenent mounted on the truck i will add some LED or Neon light bars to the bed rails for the same purpose..

Heres a pic of the topper strapped down and clamped in place on the K3500 for the trip home

Well i stopped in at a local Diesel shop today and got some quotes on installing a new Injector pump and injectors. Im looking at around $1700 all said and done including buying the NOS Injector pump from my friend for $200, $600 to install the pump and tune it, and another $900 for injectors and installing them. It also sounds like i may need to look at picking up some new glow plugs as well after the chat with the Diesel mechanic since it sounds like some of my symptoms are worn out glow plugs and others are indicating a worn out injector pump.

Ok...just an update: The Overhead console arrived a week ago I will post pics of it later today, Plus the truck will hopefully be going in next month to get the new IP and injectors installed.

Small update: I still plan on getting the injector pump from my friend and ordering new glow plugs. I will get new injectors only if required. I'm also seriously contemplating reinstalling my grille guard/winch mount onto the truck and drilling out the mounting holes on the mounting brackets and the guard to accept larger bolts.

Grille guard in question:

nice project. How does your grille winch mount bolt up to the truck?

Thanks! There are two mounts that bolt to the tow hook mounting points that the guard bolts to. It is held in place by 4 1/2" bolts, if I do keep this setup I will prob upgrade to larger hardware and add two additional bolts as well as plates to clamp the guard to the mounts.
