@460fordtruckman because i did'nt want to run oil up into the cab, and i've heard of the face breaking and oil spraying out of them. It doesn't have to be perfect just as long as i can see what it is instead of the retard light that no longer works.
@mechanic7916 lol yea when it's warm enough to the point where i can stand being outside possibly. The wires are all taped and what not and just pushed into the dash, so i'll do some work on that to make it a bit more professional sometime. Once march comes, it's insurance=get it out of my back yard and back to my grandparents house where i keep it, headers, exhaust. Then when 55+ degree weather rolls around it's finishing painting everything. Then some dyno runs!
@ndubb1 good deal good deal, i know my folks back home have really been cursing the cold weather! I just cant wait to get back to mine, got a sweet deal on a brand new set of 36x12.50x16.5 super swamper tsl's that im goin to be throwin on mine along with a set of white wagon wheel rims. should really complete the look of the truck. then its body work, front driveshaft, new locking hubs, power steering and get the brakes workin right and then i can concentrate on the interior.
why didnt you get a oil line pressure guage they work way better nice tach tho
