What have you done to your square lately??

[Dejure]

Hmm. Was wondering what I should do with the ash tray slot. It might be a good place to put a tire pressure readout AND USB ports. . . . Actually a pretty simple 3-D print.

SIDE NOTE: May try some ASA filament. Got in the truck yesterday and noted the prototype PLA prints were molding themselves to the seat belt via the rolled up windows in the 100 degree heat.

hmm....be nice to put some digital displays in there for other sensors to display. I've got a small analog tach in there now. Sorry, thinking outside of the box.

good time to put the relay harness on your headlights as well.

Is that a common mod? I'm running 5x7 leds for a few years now but I haven't had any issues until now re routing that red wire fixed the problem I had a similar thing with the alternator sensing wire rerouted it to the battery better than digging through that 40 year old harness lol plus makes it easier to repair

yes it is. The lights will draw power directly from the battery and not the trucks harness. You current power to your lights would then be a signal to the relays. Less power through your trucks aging wiring. Higher voltage directly from battery compared to old harness.

My truck was dropping about 2 volts to the headlights. Brighter lights for sure.

I have plans to add a fuse/relay box for all my other lights so I'll add that in then

After years of being stored, I finally got to bring the truck home today.

Transmission is in. Need put top 2 bell housing bolts in but need get dip stick tube in and wire harness hold down flipped down. Then converter bolts and put the passenger side exhaust back on. Starter and cover. Next will be make sure the driveshaft I bought fits, and get new u joints.


Got venison meatloaf about to come off the smoker and beer coming shortly and will call it a night.

Which one?

I'm not sure what you're asking.
If it's the spray lube, it's 3in1 Window & Track Dry Lube.
If it's the truck, a 2003 Z-71 extended cab.

Got the motor and transmission in. Cleaned up the core support. Drilled the spot welds out on the brake booster/steering column mount Cleaned it up. Started mock-up on the shaved firewall panel

Friday I purchased a set of used tires with black Rally wheels with a good set of chrome beauty rings. Today I got them installed. I suddenly realized that while surfing FB Marketplace, I had gone full potato and bought 31s instead of 32s. O well, the black wheels still look good (in my opinion)!

Can you print it yourself cheaper than the blank one on Etsy? it's like $8 or 9 plus $6 or $7 shipping.

I just put in a TPMS monitor it's solar powered and it just lays on the dash. It was super cheap ($11) and has the external sensors. I got it to try and see if it works Ok and so far I like it. I'm going to get internal sensors, or just another TPMS system with internal sensors.

I didn't know if you meant the regular dry lube or the 3in1 Window version

Got the firewall tacked in, and all holes cut...

Something I bought arrived today via USPS. So this is a 'purchased for' and 'done to' combo.

After the above post from the other day, I hunted for a new shifter knob. Found one on ebay, billet aluminum, engraved and powder coated early style knob. Pretty bitchin' if you ask me...
