Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Nope and nope. I had a kinda bad night and I'm taking out my frustration on y'all. Just kidding . But really I did have a pretty crappy evening but this is cheering me up. And that's a big negative ghostrider on the coys... Maybe next time. I did get the front end of the crewcab off and ready to swap the airbox and the motor and trans and got the bed off so I can get the tanks mounted and the brakeline shortened

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Getting it running is definitely in the plans. I'm off the whole week after july 4th so well see how much I can get done. Once I get the airbox swapped out for A/C airbox I'll be ready to drop the motor in. I also gotta get the TBI harness swapped out. Learned yesterday that the old tbi caught on fire in this truck so there's a couple connectors that were on the throttle body that got burned up. No worries though I have another harness

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Cool man!
I guess you know the firewalls are different between A/C and non A/C cabs. I ran into the PO's hack job on this truck so I cut out the airbox area from my donor 'burb. Also the drivers side upper kick panel has a hole for the fresh air vent that you will need to cover....

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Yeah thanks for the info. I have some of the stuff left over from my dads trick that I'm gonna use. I think I'm gonna just hack my firewall unless I can find a ac firewall section I can get quickly. Also I have the whole ac system inside and out for it. If for some reason I keep it I'll have to have ac in there for my wife to drive it. Period lol

My daughter's softball coach said that same quote all the time.

So how is the dash coming along? I would imagine with the heat we've had lately it's literally been a sweat shop operation you have going on.
