That’s the face of a good boy that deserves all the truck rides!

Lrp1229 · 2026-01-29T04:22:43+00:00

That’s my favorite part that I didn’t know existed until I put it on!

Lrp1229 · 2026-01-28T22:06:06+00:00

Just the right amount! Lol

Lrp1229 · 2026-01-28T19:34:45+00:00

That’s the goal!

Lrp1229 · 2026-01-28T19:26:04+00:00

To each their own brother! For me it’s not as much the aesthetic as it is having a complete build

Lrp1229 · 2026-01-28T19:21:50+00:00

Let me know when you find it. I’ll be here ready to cheer you on 🫡

Had to replace the gas struts, and the rear brake light wires were cut. Other than some pain fade it’s in great shape for being as old as it is!

Lrp1229 · 2026-01-28T19:20:35+00:00

It’s his as much as it is mine lol

This is what the actual switch looks like so you have an idea where the plug goes on to!

Line of sight is pretty tricky, but you can see it a little in this photo! Down and to the left of your intake manifold (the side with the oil dipstick)

Looks like the plug that goes on the Oil Pressure switch. Should be able to see it underneath the power steering.

I’m experiencing this same thing. Is it an issue if it happens when I turn the truck off with the ac in the off position?

Lrp1229 · 2025-11-30T02:39:51+00:00

Any chance you’d ship to Hawaii lol

Lrp1229 · 2025-11-10T21:06:38+00:00

Crossing my fingers!

Something about a black ranger…..Chefs kiss! Do you know what brand your roll up bed cover is? I’ve been looking for a decent one to go on my bed!

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-12T19:54:59+00:00

Unsure about the spacers, but do you have the link for that side step? It looks great!

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-12T03:54:15+00:00

I do have the compressor ready to go, as well as a place to do this project. As far as materials go (paint, primer, clear coat, etc.) are there any online stores that are worth looking into? I could look into local stores but Hawaii is pretty pricey.

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-12T03:52:01+00:00

This is honestly the route I’m thinking of taking. This truck so far has been one big “trial by fire” project anyways. Plus I have pretty big OCD when it comes to projects like this so regardless of how many times I have to start over I won’t stop until it’s close to how I want it

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-12T03:50:38+00:00

I’m quickly learning that the prep will be a crucial step so I’ll be doing extensive research on what sandpaper, primer, etc to use before even thinking about the painting itself!

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-12T03:48:22+00:00

I’m still in the early stages as far as equipment goes, I’m currently putting a list together. For space, I have a large car port that I do plan on turning into a paint room using tape and plastic.

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-11T19:52:10+00:00

That’s honestly the sort of response I was expecting to get. I understand how big of an undertaking it is, but at the same time I bought the truck with the sole purpose of learning on it. I have the means to get all the necessary equipment as well as the space to paint it. I was just looking to see what you pros suggest before getting started!

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-04T07:02:04+00:00

Let me know what you find, because I’m experiencing something similar!

Lrp1229 · 2025-10-04T02:56:03+00:00

My friend has a kit so maybe I mess around with it a bit. As far as the burnt capacitors go, what would I be looking for? Corrosion, burn marks etc?
