Got some work done on the runner
Went out this morning and she fired on the first try, looks like that ground cable was the problem. Yeah for me.
I cleaned it up down at the car wash and brought it home for some TLC. I got the t-case shifter turned back around where it's supposed to be so that will stop driving me nuts. I also found out that you can roll down the back window with the key by turning it in the lock on the tailgate, thank you for not laughing.
I did find out that I need a new rear window switch since I accidently smacked mine with a hammer and now it doesn't work. I also need some arm rests, a couple of head rests, it needs brakes, a drivers side seat, a steering wheel and a good cleaning. Other than that I'll be driving it to work next week and fixing things as I find them. Oh and I taped up all the crappy wires and tucked them back under the dash and will be gutting that next weekend. I want to drive it for a while to make sure everything else is working well before I tear into it.

Once all the little things are done I'll start buying upgrades for the drive train.

From: Cincinnati, Ohio - Amelia is the exact place. There is no one else on this site from where I am. Seems like everyone is from Cali or Washington. I guess I need to move.
That a boy, shes looking good. I wont laugh, cause I dont know anything about Runners at all.

Looks good! How are you liking it so far?
I think the rear window roll down thing is pretty sweet too. The first time I did it around my friends they were like "WTF?
" not only because the you can use the key, but also because it went into the tailgate...

I really like this thing. If I can get a little farther along in the guild it may end up replacing my pickup.

What's wrong with the current steering wheel? I never knew about the rear window roll down with key function, my buddy just got a 95 and I'm sure he doesn't know about it either, gotta show him!!

I think the PO had an issue with the horn when he installed the alarm because the horn parts have been torn out via a huge cut in the steering wheel pad. You can fold the dang pad down and almost pull it off the frame work of the steering wheel. Besides not having a horn the rip drives me nuts.
