I like it man. Very clean!

Do you plan to put in a Bronco II center console or anything between the seats?

No idea yet, might build something custom to mount my rear 6x9's, I haven't seen BII center consoles, anyone have pictures? Might just do that.

My brother works at a company that builds custom crates out of wood, i.e: Cat engine crates for 18 wheelers and such. He's been asking the guy he works for if we could get some of the scrap wood (which really isn't scrap), finally he's allowed us to take everything! So I've been letting him use the truck for the past 3 days, today's outcome was bad, but not, not fixable!

So here's some pictures of the loads, and the load that bent the hell out of my rear bumper!
:icon_rofl:

It is fixable, and I have a guy that's selling me a hitch he took off a s-10, which is needed obviously, oh well, it pulled it, just didn't like holding it! Haha

Good stuff, peace y'all!
:headbang:
 
So ran a crossed some money, and decided I wanted a sub-woofer!
And so the picture tells the tale!

IT's a Sony Xplod 1200W Peak // 330W RMS
Which I'm pushing through my 300W Dual Amp
Picked it up at bestbuy, for 154$, reduced from 180$!
Also purchased two 1" Dome tweeters to run through the factory rear outs
for those crisp highs!
Thing is crazy thump!

And lets add some more power now.
:blush:

Amplifier and sub needed more juice!
So why not give her a little loving?
Ultima 80Amp, no idea what the current Alt. Amp. was.
Bearing were wore out on the old Alt.
And wasn't charging correctly.

Decided to go ahead and take a peak inside the rear yesterday.
Seemed like no one has ever been in the damn thing, alot of build up.
Little to no signs of stress / breaks / metal scrapings.
Overall great looking rear end for 187k+
:icon_cheers:

This is now turning into my work log.

  • 187,000+ miles
  • Changed Oil 10W-40 Pennzoil 3Quarts
  • 2Quarts Lucas Oil Stabilizer
  • Replaced Distributor Cap & Rotor.
  • Replaced Differential fluid Lucas 80W-90 Gear oil
  • Replaced Differential gasket + Sealant

Oh and following the rest of the night, beer, and stealing plants.

Lol, bye for now y'all.

Seriously bad idea towing a load like that with anything but an actual hitch....
 
Decal finally came! Just applied also, it's dark I'll get more pictures tomorrow.

Nice looking daily! I've come to find out how handy it is to have a truck around, since I'm used to having my car only.
