Andy - where did you get the seals and who is the maker?

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I got my Tow Hitch fitted, after seeing one on a truck in this thread on another Longhorn.
Its a Draw-Tie 41938 and fitted up very well. Now to do some wiring for brakes and lights. |

I got the under side of the cab stripped. The tip-n-flip is a life saver. So far, NO rust repair!

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

I took out the black vinyl and replaced it with dark saddle. I think it goes better with the color of the truck. Golden Ginger
