one thing that is weird, and ill figure it out....i can use the drivers door switch to roll the drivers window up/down, but the other switch, as soon as i hit it, it blows the fuse...but i can roll it down from the passenger switch no problem..i believe i have a problem with the switch...now on the engine side i have to get another breather or install a pcv valve, finish the damn fuel line i keep putting off because i dont wanna crawl under the truck..lol now if i can just get the painter to do something...

77chris03 · 03-05-2012, 12:17 AM

77chris03 · 03-05-2012, 12:20 AM

lol its the only station i can get clearly inside the storage unit with the light on..whoever did the electrical only ran the switch leg up to the light and shared the neutral on the timer....so there is a crap load of noise in the 120v line..

77chris03 · 03-05-2012, 11:55 PM

not much but i did get a little bit done tonite, despite it only being 2 hrs...and half that time was dealing with the welding bunching up the wire and me having to dig it out for 30 min...heres some pics.

not perfect at all, but for what i got to work with, it should do.

mcbassin · 03-06-2012, 12:01 AM

I love your new interior. It looks great. I may need some more info on the power window setup you are using. Also, nice work on the bed. Can't wait to see it done.

its a brothers one piece electric window kit...but electric life sell the entire kit for vent window trucks for around 3 something...they drop right in place of the old components...hardest part is doing the wiring and pulling the old regulators out...!
thanks bro... i still have the kick panels to do, part of the firewall, radio, speakers, and finish the wiring under the dash for the drivers door...and gotta get the front and rear glass...the rear glass will be the same color shade as the front windows...that means no tint!!!
