Pigtail end on the offroad light harness fixed the cheap way... By using a trailer wire harness extension. Lol

Light mount that came with the lights I bought was tweaked all to hell. But I had another one I got when I bought the lights currently on the front of my truck. So I decided to use it for mounting the lights to my bumper. In the process of modifying it for that now. Already cut the lower corners off and swapped them to opposite sides and welded them back up, so that way all the mounting tabs/points are on the back side of the light mount for a cleaner look.

as far as your tails the only ones i found to work for the uppers i got from retrofit source. and then used my generic red lower ones, you need an srck noted bulb for the turn signal, nothing else will work properly.

ok. and thanks for the info

Came out nice!!! You need a tire carrier in the bed now

thanks. and yes i do. lol

 

[project 67 sub]

Well ****... Looks like it's time to put my other/better tach in now. Lol. And I was gonna change this one since was acting up anyways, so no big deal. (ended up just leaving it out and not putting the other one in it).

New and better ball joint boots came in today. Now I can install my tubular control arms I've had for a while. Once I get a chance to work on my own stuff that is. (upper ball joint boot ended up not fitting, but the lower one did).

Which Junkyard do you goto?

awesome truck, Great Idea on the gussets for the upper arms, didnt realize it was that common for the Upper A-arm Tabs to seperate from the frame like that. Just discovered the same problem with mine.

you ever let those A-arms go, im an Interested buyer

 

[project 67 sub]

Thanks. And yah it's real common for them to start ripping the upper control arm mounts off the frame, especially when you off-road them. Speaking of which, I gotta weld part of the lower rear passanger side one where it's cracked through the factory weld. Lol. And as far as junk yards go, there's 5 different ones I go to for parts for my 2 projects depending on what I'm looking for.

U&I auto wrecking in San Bernardino
Pick A Part in San Bernardino
Pick A Part (Hill Side/Pyrite) in Riverside
Pick A Part (Milliken) in Ontario
And Ecology auto wrecking (owned by Pick A Part now) in Rialto

How have i never seen this? That thing is friggin sweet man great work. Looks so much better now the camber is all good

 

[project 67 sub]

Lol. Thanks. And yes it does. Those control arms pushed my track width out a bit farther too. But I don't mind, it looks even better now

 

[twomanymontes]

Wow! That truck came along way! Great Job!!!

 

[project 67 sub]

thanks. still has a long way to go... that is if i don't get rid of it. lol

No more nasty ass red carpet, and 50's aqua paint on the floor. As well as no more stereo and minimal other panels. Plan on eventually painting the dash gray, and and probably making my own door panels to get rid of these ugly red ones...

Plasti-dip "tint" strip to go with it? Sure why not.

Well since its raining, guess I'll hit and modify my heater/a.c. control switch housing to mount the switches for my lights in it

You must be registered for see images attach

Epoxying on some ABS plastic so I have something to mount my switches too.

Dash all back together. Some of it came out slightly darker than the majority of it, but it's good enough and looks a lot better than before... Now I just need to get rid of the rest of the red. Lol
