Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
thanks a lot. I'm workin on it.
haha. Yes and I agree. Yes I bought them off of eBay. They are plastic. I put dynamat on the back of them to make them feel different. It's overkill on it but it's not as plasticky feeling now. I like them. They were the only ones I found that had scrolls to match the seat and didn't have wood grain on them.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Got the rest of the wiring for the stereo ran. Mounted the din box in the console. Painted the console. Put the carpet in the cab. Will start pulling the wiring through in a while.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Hi Chuck,
The truck is looking excellent. I wanted to know if you were going to be around next week on Thursday or Friday. I will be in Chattanooga but will have time to drive up and meet you if possible. I sent a message out to Rus also. Let me know and maybe we can meet up. I would love to see that beautiful truck in person. Take care, Tom

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Very nice work on the console Chuck, I still need to do the same thing to mine. You didn't happen to save the part number for that radio box? Keep the pictures coming.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I had a great lunch w/my nieces and went and bought another head unit that takes a 3.5 on the rear. This ones a pioneer. I got it in case I want to hook that IR repeater. I think the phone control will be fine but we'll see. This will be the first time I've hidden a stereo. not sure its worth all the trouble. I found a steering wheel control but not sure if I'm going to got that route either.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Today I did a job that I've been putting off for a while but it needed to be done today. I swapped out the heater hoses that were leaking. The ones I got from Auto Zone had small holes every like two to three inches. Well they leaked at those holes so I got a Gates hose from Napa. All together and no leaks. The in-laws came up so I didn't get much further.
