I'd love to see some pictures of your rear springs setup next time you get to crawl under there a bit.

 

Also, as for wiper-work, I might recommend you check out my build on page 5 or do a search for "Comprehensive wiper modification, upgrade and maintenance" on the site here.    

 

Dude you got a cool truck with some great, rare features.  Congrats.

I will try to remember to crawl under there. I am at my moms this week (my truck is up at my dad's divorced parents suuuuuuuck) anything specific you want to see about them?. I will definitely check out that thread.  

 

I love my truck. there is just something about it. it is only the base model but it's a metric ton so that's something.

i would just like to see the leaf number and orientation.  Maybe attachment points.  I appreciate you going out of your way, bro.  

 

Yea, divorce is not what God desires of us.  You're right, it sucks.  I divorced when my kids were like 8 & 6 and HATED it as I knew it would affect them.  Time helps heal.  Some.

 

[Jesse J]

yeah no worries maybe I will swing by after school today.  I would rather live under 2 roofs than one dysfunctional one

[Jesse J]

my 40" cc sticker came! thanks @Pete M. I don't know where to put it though considering legality. maybe right above the dashbut that would ge in the way of visibilty I don't know

[Pete M]

 

 

top of the windshield is for sure out of line of sight. 

[Jesse J]

but I am worried about 2 things for that A the rear veiw mirror and b a future visor 

[Pete M]

others have made it work so I'm sure it fits up there.    maybe wait until you mount the visor and see what it would look like then.
