My junk yard excursion today

Well, I went down to Harry's today and got me a few things. Got some tow hooks from a 98, fog light wires that I needed, lots of fuses, and some desperately needed rear bottom door latches because the one I had seized open and wouldn't close. So the bottom would push open around corners and when things were putting pressure on the door and the door ajar light came on and dinged. Most annoying sum bitch ever.... I also got myself some Boston speakers that I found, but only 3 out of the 4 worked. But hell, for $16 who cares! Haha. I also got some cab lights from an F150 that was sitting down there. Might attempt to wire them up tomorrow. Just need new drill bits lol. So after I rewash the truck I'm gonna have my buddy help me with measuring the lights out so they look alright. Gotta pic of em placed for an idea, so here it is. Whatcha think?







Oh! And I forgot the best part! After going wheeling yesterday, some leaves got caught up against my lower control arm and pushed against the dust shield on the back of my rotor. I came home after driving for an hour and smelled something burning, more than the mud....but my dad just kept saying it was the mud. Next thing I see after walking around the back, there was smoke coming from underneath the damn truck! Those leaves (that I didn't know about at the time) ended up catching on fire and nearly caught my truck on fire with them.... So I went and grabbed the hose. Haha. Thank god I'm washing her again tomorrow.

nice i love cab lights! damn u lucky with the leaves man

 

Yeah, tell me about it... Haha. The whole way home I was smelling something burning, but I wasn't sure what it was, if it was just the mud or something else. Then I guess since I was mashing on the brakes on the way home (I was seeing how fast my truck took off up hills, and how fast it could stop on downhills...lol) that caused it

 

You need to get a better pic of the truck with the lights, we need to see more of the truck

 

That was just a quick pic I snapped. After I wash her again tomorrow morning I'll take a few more. I'm thinking about niteshading them a bit to match my corners.

 

lol that could be, i hope you at least got some air off the hills then lol

 

Almost did after I got the door latch installed. Went about 80 through the coal plains by my house around corners. Lmao.

 

thats good dont want ya flyin out airborne lol. oh boy hahah that would be pretty damn fun

 

night shade those lights before you put them on

 

I'm probably gonna do a light coat. I'll throw em on without it first and see how they look. The lenses come off easy.

 

get some black lenses then or do heavy coat and get some leds

 

plz do not space those lights like that...... cant stand when ppl put them even across. 2 outside edge ones, 3 center

 

You shoulda let it burn man...

 

x2 lol

 

x2
they install like this : 3 in the center are closer together the outer ones are farther aprt from the center

 

like this:

o___o_o_o___o

 

^ exactly

 

Thats how they're spaced on my cab visor.. Looks best that way..

 

Hang on,gonna upload pics

 

Rough estimates of what they'll look like...









And here is evenly spaced........









I like em both ways.....maybe a little more with the three centered ones.
