    Question about factory interior colors

    I guess I'm gonna update this just because, I went with the charcoal color, also getting the headliner redone in about the same color. I still can't figure out the paint code for the trim. It's a dark gray. I purchased both the light and dark gray colorbond paints from LMC and the light gray is...

    Did you ever pull your headliner down to have a look? I've also been looking to add some kind of overhead console.

    How to spruce up these old rims

    Yeah and I feel like if I were to paint them as they are it would just be a shiny crappy looking wheel

    How to spruce up these old rims

    Any tips on doing that without dismounting the tires? Idk if the stripper would be safe on the tires or hitting the tire with the wand would do any damage. It's only a 2800 psi unit and I'd probably use a 25 degree nozzle

    How to spruce up these old rims

    Just wondering what some of you might do. These wheels look pretty disgusting. You can actually feel texture of all the crud on them, how should I go about this? Take them to someone to refinish Just give em a coat of paint Take a wire wheel to them first before painting(seems like a bad idea)...

    Question about factory interior colors

    Anyone recommend the mass backing or any of the other things the carpet companies offer? I have my own foil backed dynamat and closed cell foam, would the mass backing be better?

    Question about factory interior colors

    Yeah the picture makes it look dark gray but it's actually like a blue color. Maybe I will just go with the charcoal after all.

    Just wanted to update all you fine folks that helped me in this post. Drove the truck for about 10 minutes to get the ezhaust heated up a little. Got the old o2 sensor out easily and got the threads in the manifold cleaned up with the o2 sensor thread chaser. No more exhaust leak it's beautiful...

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    Yeah I'm nervous about that and after my previous experiences with this truck..its what I expect. But I don't really see any other options. Gonna let the truck warm up for a few minutes first aswell.

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    Well I guess I'm just gonna crank on it with my 1/2 breaker bar with a fence post over it..that should remove what's left of the o2 sensor hopefully. I can spray the pb blaster into that hole, not sure if that would be any more effective. As far as replacing the broken bolts that'll be...
