OzarkGuy Posted Monday at 02:11 AM Posted Monday at 02:11 AM I've been tinkering with the truck as weather permits. Truck sits in a metal shop so if it's 90º out, its about 130º in the shop so its been slow progress. I replaced the padding, put new shifter spacer where mine was disintegrated along with new rubber shifter dust cap. Can't believe that change alone and how it made the shifter feel so solid again. I had sent out the seatbelts to get new webbing as mine were just disgusting from age. All new LED bulbs and painted the bare rusted under dash metal parts flat black. Looks like a new under there. I also replaced my steering column as it was all jacked up. Super happy I can turn the key to accessory to listen to the radio and have wipers work again let alone high beams! Hopefully I will get the seats back this week. We bought a 2024 Model 3 Tesla and that car has been fun to drive. My wife needed a new set of wheels and since it can drive itself, she is happy.
ghetdjc320 Posted Monday at 03:41 AM Posted Monday at 03:41 AM Looking good! If you can, get a build thread going so you can document your progress along the way. Also, I would emphatically suggest you make sure there are zero water leaks in the cab before buttoning everything back up
pizzaman09 Posted Monday at 03:41 AM Posted Monday at 03:41 AM This is looking amazing. Where did you get a new shifter rubber a dust cap from? That's on my list of need to do.

fiatslug87 Posted Monday at 03:45 AM Posted Monday at 03:45 AM Looks good! I think you have your shifter boot rotated 180°, the high part at the bottom should be towards the dash.

Yes, that is the tunnel boot but this one is the shifter kit. I did replace the tunnel boot with the one linked. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BX67SZ3M?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
