I still need to get a winch and weld the reinforcement kit on.

Nice, thanks... check out my build thread... shows the work on my long rear springs

Started to color match my trim. Finished the grill, headlight surrounds, combo marker trim, and mirrors.



It looks so much cleaner now, I can't wait til I can match my windshield trim (ugly combo of worn black and chrome).

My radiator has developed a slight leak below the cap. Anybody know of a good radiator shop in the Roseville, Rocklin, Granite Bay, Auburn areas?
If I can't get it repaired I'll just install a new one from radiator barn.

Sliders on! Just need to primer and paint the frame welds and they will be done! Welding was done by Offroad Addiction in Auburn.


You can really see the fender color difference here ha ha

May I ask you what are the wheels on the truck? I have the same wheels but have no idea what they are.

They are 15" wheels made by Vision, but I don't know more than that. I've never bothered to research them.

CB time! Just scored a Cobra 29 WX NW ST for a great price on ebay. Now time to decide where to put it.



Any recommendations/advice on antennas, tuning, mounts? I'm thinking I want to mount the antenna on my back bumper...

The K-40 can be removed, I got one and works well.
You should put at the highest point on the vehicle....nice rig...

I've been thinking I might paint my rims bronze. Might try a touch of Photoshop before to see how it would look.

My CB arrived today. Now looking for a place to put it. I tried beneath the ash tray, but the dash support bars are too narrow. I bent one back and it fit, but now I'm thinking of removing the ash tray and cigarette lighter and cutting out that section to mount it.

I also did the AFM mod and turned the cog two clicks. Noticeable difference, not much but its there. I am going to try three clicks this weekend as well as do the ISR mod.

Mocked up the cb location just as the sun was setting (so no actual mounting tonight ). Decided to cut out the ash tray area. Sorry for the quality, cell phone and low light.

Fits right below and is angled up slightly.

^^^^ I would call it good right there, I hardly even notice the duct tape

nieb15

Ha ha, blends right in with the faceplate!

RMP8080

Myth Busters would have used much more duct tape....lol

Antenna mount installed and cable routed into. Still working on the cb mount.

New tires!

CB is installed! I will be building a custom enclosure for the bottom that will hold two 12v sockets and maybe a switch panel.
