Hey @eskimomann209 and @Goldie Driver, i decided id put that clock in today....tore apart the whole dash and gauges, put the clock in and got the gauges all back together, clock working. Screw in the cluster and hey clocks not workin... back out it goes. I hook mine back up and it starts working. Wtf?! So after all that i put mine back in and its working so.... also played with my int wipers and realize the delay box is bad. Then after all that i go to put tranny fluid in and accidently kick over the whole quart down the front of my truck.... ****! Off to the car wash.

Here you go, man. I wanted to finish first, but oh well (that's what she said).


Angle grinder, off brand polyester body and bumper filler, dollar general brand paintable flex-seal. Lol....
It's certainly not perfect, but better than the alternative.
I'm thinking brown krylon on top? Something like that.
And I'm gonna try to open up the speaker holes I filled with a dremel drill bit or something.

Thank you. We'll see how it looks after the final paint. Hopefully ok.

Sometimes with this build, I feel like I'm taking one step forward and 3 back. Lol...
Yesterday I started it just to let it run a bit and it started sputtering and the cel light came on. No stored codes, but it was loading up and hesitating. Weird thing is the light would go out if I revved it up?
It did it like 5 starts yesterday while I was trying to troubleshoot it, and about as many tonight.
Anyway, I decided to clean the contacts on every sensor I could find (iac, tps, cts, etc) and pushed all the plug wires down.
Started it up and it purrs like a kitten now.wtf?

So I aired up the tires, took it off the jack stands, and drove around my yard in 4wd with the neighbor lady looking at me like I'm a crazy ****. Runs great, and no more drive noises, either.

So then I decided to throw it back in 2wd and drive right out on the road with it. Haha ..
I don't even have a seat in it, just the steel floor.
She stared until I was out of sight. :D

We'll get there eventually.
I got a bunch of parts today, so that's cool.

I needed outside so bad. Got help getting to the porch. I am literally laying on the porch watching my kids try to wash my vehichles. It is so damn hard not to help. But they are doing their best, god help me. My oldest son is spending the summer with my grandmother. He will come back with some wicked cleaning skills, lol. She is a tough cookie.
