    I like the way this switch worked out for my light bar, fits in the oval blank next to the OEM fog light switch on the 02's.

    Very tidy - I think I would change the fog light switch to match the lightbar switch.

    I’ll have to see how rough it will be to swap the tundras and sequoias blinker stalk. Sequoia’s has a foglight switch on it.

    I'm using those. They may not sound so great initially, I almost pulled them right out myself. Give them a week or so to break in and there's a good improvement.

    Certainly nothing amazing, but a fair upgrade over worn stock speakers.

    Thanks, I'm not expecting amazing for $70. Can't be worse than stock, have to be better than 15 year old $50 pioneer coaxials.

    The other day I did a revisit of my rear brakes; did 3 clicky Rickys on the drum adjusters, and moved my prop valve adjuster up about 3/8”(it was almost at the bottom of the eye bolt)
    Some running around this morning for chicken feed and a call out; I’m quite pleased with how the adjustments took!
    Rack tracks should be in on Tuesday and I’m not on call, so maybe I’ll start mocking up the roof for tracks and my schmancy vent fan for the camper

    Popped this is; it plugged right into the back of the GTA kit.
    I'll play around with the blank and the dremel to make it look OEM (hopefully)...

    I wonder if I should scout for used frames, buy one then sandblast and get it galvanized to make it last indefinitely.

    Keeping rust at bay is PIA. Looked underneath earlier today and there's definitely more touch up with a wire brush and POR-15 application to be done to keep it in shape.

    It'll take a lot longer though than an ordinary frame.

    Not a bad idea. I just inspected @jpink Iowa frame today and covered it with 3 cans of Fluid Film. He was like "man you were not kidding about covering everything but the exhaust". :rofl:

    That’s a 90s ranger. :boink:

    edit: I’m losing it. I thought you meant the truck when you meant the tailgate net.

    Took it for a drive today, seems I have a gremlin.. There appears to be 14+ charging volts. Batteries look healthy, but stuff's acting like it's possessed.

    When I use my turn signal, the stereo blinks. It switches to night mode when I use my brakes.

    It stalled when I turned on the headlights.
