They’re Spintech 6000XLP. Had the 3000 series before and decided to tone it down a bit. Although the 3” system will probably offset that, lol.

8.5 years to install my door panels. Only item pending is my front bumper is being re-chromed, at least I think so.
Can you believe they tried to give me a knock-off front bumper, declaring it rechromed? I was PSST. Yeah, they "found" my bumper. They had it 6 months and never touched it. I don't like the logo on the floor mats, ordering plain black. |

Tony, that looks pretty. I particularly like your seats, are those from SMS?

Picked up some parts from the border today.
Finally got to finish my top coolant line to the radiator. |

I got a DrawTite 14082 10k hitch. The frame rails were a little tweaked. I taped a board to each side and had some hammer time. Got them straight and 34” now.

got my headlight and wiper switch replaced, got the broken defroster lever in. Still working on drilling out the pot-metal bosses to bolt that little plate back on over the lever pivots.

Got the shocks, springs, sway bars, and new track bar. I got 1” front and 2” rear drop springs. I will be switching to 31x10.50-15 tires. We’ll see how it looks when it’s back together with the new tires. I can always do spindles and drop blocks if need be.
Tonight I got the rear springs and spring cups installed. Got antisieze everywhere. I can’t even take the lid off without making a mess. Then got the shocks and track bar installed. I’ll be ready to put the box back on when I can scrounge up some “volunteers” to help. |

I also plan to reposition the exhaust sections for the best clearance and have them welded to get rid of all the exhaust clamps.
Helen Keller did her best attempt with the rear brake line, but I’m gonna see if I can build a new one. |

Marking wires and making pdf notes on the wiring diagram so my head won't explode.
Putting the ducts back together for hopefully the last time, reconnecting the a/c control panel, and swapping led lights into the instrument cluster. |
Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Also finally figured out how the A<-->B views of the fuse box work on the fact'ry diagram :rolleyes:

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I took out the ignition switch and kicked the left front tire as I walked away.

Installed an 8k tach along with a modified OE lens. Designed the text based on the stock 5k tach and then had a local shop print it on there for me.
