Where to tap in to wire aux equipment.

I used one of these Rockford post extenders just to have somewhere to tap off the stock battery cable at the battery since the post is so small. Just push out the tiny little old screw and pop this in. I would use this plus a fuse box but Im only running trailer brakes sometimes a light bar and...

Well I guess if it sits, that means less klicks going on the clock. I have an interview Friday so maybe that'll let me take it to a shop to have the trans, sloppy steering, and possibly valve seals quoted. Or at least give me an idea of what needs doing. my moms boss has a shop with a lift and...

I used flat black Tremclad rust paint. Skimmed over it with a wire wheel just to get rid of the rust and bondo and sprayed it right on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not much to report. Picked up a set of 235/85/16 tires and steelie rims for free. The tires are probably rotten from sitting in a yard for years but still, free stuff right? The insurance on the truck is expired and I dont feel like re-insuring it so it'll sit once again. I feel Ill need to...

That grille looks gaudy as hell. But at least you painted the stuff, I cant stand when people leave the whole truck black with that stuff. Personally Id only ever do rockers, the bed and maybe flares. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oot and aboot today. Washed the truck so I could get the bug cakes off the grille and the nasty stuff out of the canopy. Probably the cleanest Ive seen the truck. I think the spot with the best/untouched paint is the rear drivers side of the box haha. So anyway, took out the light bar and...

Yup, I think Im gonna spend a little quality time with the truck this summer and do some paining and rust repair. Thanks man! I do have a fuel gauge and it used to work until some dumb*** overfilled my propane tank and now its all out of whack. I didnt really go by it anyway. I wish my dash had...
