If it wasn't for you bumping this I might not have seen your build man. Its looking good! You don't see many 4x4 builds really and even out of the 4x4's very few of them are 3\4-1Tons. I might have missed it but when you said about the precision seal fitting nice is that a new windshield too or did you get lucky and have a really nice one?

Thanks! Yeah it’s a new windshield, I can’t recall the manufacturer, but it shipped from a local parts place and came to me all in one piece so I was pretty happy! Yeah it is a trim less Persison seal. All in, I’m into the windshield, seal and install for 700 Canadian! Again pretty happy with that.

I want this rig to be a can do machine, I’m building it to use. It will replace my 1997 GMC k1500 once its up and running. I want to be able to take it out hunting, tow the camper trailer and the family around.

Thanks for the interest, I’m back on to it now so more progress to come

Sounds good man. I plan to make my truck a do all type of build too, haul firewood\pull car trailer\maybe camper etc. Living in MD I might even throw a plow on it if I find one cheap since my 4x4 frame already has mount for a old style meyers plow.

Sounds awesome! Would like to see your rig with the plow hooked ups

Hey guys,

Took the old girl for a little bit of a drive around today!! Felt pretty good, still have a smile on my face!

Got the brakes all plumbed and juiced. All the drive line work to happen.

Stay tuned for more.

Hey Guys,

Picked up the panel from the shop yesterday, got to drive it home!
All of the suspension and alignment are all done. Here are a few pictures in behind the new house. Still loads of things to button up, but it felt pretty good cruising down the highway home.

Have a good one,

Anthony

Here are a few more pics of the the truck

Got a day in this past Monday

Worked on the stop light issue, those work again. Got the old air hearted wired in and functioning, air con to come. Adjusted the headlights. And worked on getting the wiper motor wired in and functioning. The Dodge wiring didn’t jive, the multifunction switch and intermittent module don’t communicate with the old GM wiper motor I guess. Tried a bunch of configurations there and no dice.

I then tried a straight shot from the fuse box, ran a wire from the fuse box to a three position switch one of the ends, then a wire from the middle section of the switch to one of the two leads off of the motor and the other motor lead to ground. When o flipped the switch it would pop the fuse. Is this a multi speed motor or just a single speed? Looking to bi-pass the dodge harness and run the wipers off a toggle switch. Anyone have an idea what I’m doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated

I’m really excited about how the truck is turning out, just driving it has been a sense of accomplishment even though everything is not all functioning or working right

Thanks for tuning in guys
