    Too much to list!
    I plan on this too. One more day of bed rest and I get to work on my truck again.

    Did you dip it or paint it? Looks like you did the ring for the 4X4 selector too.

    I painted it. I did do the ring and cluster bezel rings. However I found the paint that I used for the AC knobs, shifter gate bezel and grill badge and like it more so I'll be repainting the 4x4 ring and cluster rings tonight :D

    While it's not that recent, I had to stop and snap a picture of this once in a vehicle's lifetime achievement.

    I'm not a collector, but I really want one of these for some reason. Want to be my first (morale patch)? ;)

    Got tired of whacking every tree limb in the county with my rooftop Wilson mag mount antenna for the 2m HAM rig so I got a Relentless Fabrication hood hinge antenna mount, 9' Fire-ring cable (with Ez-Install connector), Firestik K4r stud mount and Firestik 2m15-B antenna.



    It tuned up easy and covers entire band with 1.3:1 SWR or better. I was also surprised at it's reach, I was able to hit several local repeaters with full quieting. Considering I live on the far south end of the county I was pleased with the performance.

    The radio is a Yaesu FT-2900r that can push close to 85 watts however I run it at about 20 watts most of the time.



    I'm interested in the simplex capability and will test it with my wife sitting at the base station.



    73s fellow HAMers!.

    I use the Rustoleum Bed Liner in the rattle cans on my sliders. I like it because it is "grippy" for the wife to use as a step and is really durable. I've touched them up a few times and you can't see where I re-sprayed the sliders.

    finally made some progress on my axe mount. Not completely done yet, once the weather allows me to go outside I will be painting it black.
