The goal here was to make something you could confuse for factory. I think I got pretty close. This is for the driver’s side switches to be installed at some point. All I’ll have to do is remove the blanks, plug them in, and put the switches in the holes. Job done.

All that’s left to do is install these and the #bussmannfusebox on Saturday. Then I can finally test the bumper light out ahead on that install.

Took some patience and some learning, but my lower dash switch harness is done. Now I need to make one for the driver cubby, then I can get everything installed.

Box is pretty much done. Short one fuse connection due to a broken terminal, but I’m not sure what if use non-relay hookups for anyway. This was a really fun project, next up is running the switch wiring inside the cab.

This is really fun, I’m glad I spent a little bit more and am doing it myself.

It’s amazing what you can learn if you put your mind to it. Auxiliary fuse box build begins!

I noticed the other day when I had my truck in the body shop, they must have removed the doors to make the repair. Now my doors line up properly again. Bonus!

As for #fatmountain, instead of tossing it perhaps I’ll make some tallow.

One day soon I’m hoping to move past parking lot shots. Might take the winch out of the box this weekend.

New arrivals. That’s a #pelfreybilt fuse tray and two #aironboard switches. The first steps in making a power distribution center under the hood.

This part of the oil change was absolutely brilliant. The #fumotovalve was super easy to use, and all the oil went exactly where intended.

The filter, however, was another story. The plug in adapter with the stock filter starts leaking oil before it is fully in. By far the messiest part. I will invest in a filter drain tool for next time.

6.1 quarts of #mobil1 EP full syn and a fresh filter and we are off again.

Time for another oil change. First time using the #fumotovalve so we’ll see how clean this one can be. Also grabbed a creeper to save me some effort.

Small change, one I’ve been thinking about for awhile. Added the hood vinyl and dipped the scoop. Practically, it should help with glare, but it’s also one of the last Pro features I’ve liked and didn’t have.

Had to go to Harbor Freight anyway, so I picked this guy up to take with me on trips. I absolutely cannot find what I did with my Craftsman that I’ve had for almost twenty years (maybe more). This will do in a pinch.
