Back earlier in the build I had found a parting out truck and got a rh sun visor.As the Bull originally was lh only.Well the left had one fell apart while driving the other day.So I had to refurb it.Now it matches the right.Sans the original vinyl.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Headliner kept sagging between the mounting points.LMC kit is nice though I had to add extra mounting point's.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Do you have any pics of your parking brake install? Was curious if you used the factory rear cables? I went to their website and the prices for their stuff isn't bad.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

I have not installed the frt. cable and handle yet.I did install original cables in rear,The first rear cables that I ordered from LMC are incorrectly listed,NAPA still offers the correct for pre 63. I will show the install when it comes about.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Kept having some water come into the cab after the Seattle rain or washing.None from the windshield it seemed to be thru the cowl and down to the vents.Even in the center from the wiper motor area.I seam sealed anything of question.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

The sealed beam headlamp's in the dark in Seattle rain weather are not good.So out they will go.I got a h4 conversion set to install.An updated harness with relay's also.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

I had read this on the forum and you do have to open up the hole behind each lamp on the headlamp retaining plate's.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

New front lighting harness installed.Scrubbed down everything and painted buckets and retaining plate's,Relays in for high beam and low beam.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

All work's just waiting for the dark to align headlamps. Just posin' with the halo ring's.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Have a part number for the 60-62 rear cables?
Looks great!

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

No pressure, but I'm looking forward to the parking brake install also.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Ya .Still got that to to finish.The rear cable's are on .Just keep changing my thought's on where the handle and frt cable is to go to work best.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Thank's .I will look back and see what number the rear cables where.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Cable's I used on the rear NAPA # UP92240 .

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Which kit did you get?

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

I bought an Octane lighting H4 KIT and harness.Best pricing at Amazon.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Thanks

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Thank you!

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

The weather has been real rainy,My garage is full and shop.No new recent work on the Bull .Photo op'

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Been driving a lot almost 10k miles in the Bull now.The Seattle rain is non stop thought I would take advantage of it.Wet sanded the white today.Some 2000 and light soapy water.A year of non cleared base coat lookin good and old .

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Check straps or door stops. Using the jeep one's to do the mod at Crown jeep parts. Look close at the boxes the factory number is on them. These fit the later trucks pretty easily. Though take a little work to fit to the 60-63.lOOK close the originals are split bracket to rubber stop. Original pins fit also.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

The jeep door straps do take some work. Nothing major. the original holes in the door shell need to opened slightly. I used a RH angle drill with a step bit in thru the inside of the door shell.. The pivot bracket on the pillar is best I think to be split ( cut ) in half and than slightly thin down the jeep strap to fit better .

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Left door check strap done using Jeep Cherokee parts.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Deluxe wheel. Got a new jem to control the Bull. In good shape. Needs cleaning and some repair and paint.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Very Nice!

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

The deluxe wheel was in fair shape though had about a 9" open wound on the bottom of the hoop.The inner steel hoop was exposed and rusted. Cleaned and prepped and then some PC7 and some curing by the fire some sanding and than some more of the same till like new. Well almost more to come.

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

[QUOTE=Palf70Step;8181317]Very Nice!]

Thank's Palf .These wheels are tough to come by .

Re: The Snortin' bull
 

Deluxe wheel 5 hours later. Out with the old in with the new. Refurbished and installed. Feeling like a Cadillac king in a GMC.What's better than that ?

Re: The Snortin' bull

Re: The Snortin' bull
