Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Thanks for turning the pics! And for the comments! Almost finished It last night, but our awesome parts store doesn't carry brake hoses for older chevy trucks apparently.. And I broke a bolt off and the bolt getting place was closed when I got there.. So first thing this morning I got a bolt and rolled it back out of the shop.. Maybe tomorrow it'll be finished

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Worst build day ever...But it's over.
It's a personal thang...I hate screwing around with the windows. I was gone on a road trip for about four weeks. Almost every night I thought about that passenger window that I left with unfinished electric window wiring and mechanism install. They were good thoughts. Today, I got a chance to go to the shop at 8:15. I was going to "beat the heat". When I figured out the nuances of the install when I put in the driver's side, I figured I'd do the same thing on the passenger's side in about an hour. After pulling everything out of the door (except the door opening hardware), I found out that I was going to have to come in from the top with the window glass and "carrier" in order to hook on the three "slider buttons". Not so with the first door. Maybe it was me, being a right-hander and left-brainer. All's well that ends well, I guess. At 2:30, though. I guess it was 85 degrees F.....Felt like 120. Still have to do the final wiring and the passenger door panel. BTW, great quality on this electric window kit from ECE. It was a present. But I think it was about five bills. I definitely paid the price today.

Got my back glass and my passengers side door glass, with power, installed. I like the way it looks.
