    Finished spraying the truck with rustoleum Berliner, not bad for 10 cans worth and a couple hours.
    Also replaced my drivers seat with the new to me $40 bench seat. Comfortable as heck.
    Will be ordering new headlights & cornerlights this week

    Does a good job!! But you have to watch out that it doesn't take the lettering off of things like the fuse panel cover, or other painted surfaces. But it will cut the crap out of grease!

    Isn't perfect but will sand down the high gloss areas, gotta figure out what grit to use
    Like the finished product even if it could be better.

    I did mine with frost king on floor, roof, rear panel, and underneath the door panels. Additionally, I did inside the cavities of the doors with U-Seal, a petroleum based roofing patch material. I would not recommend this for any of the interior areas, as it has an odor.

    Overall, it was worth the time and effort. It really quiets down the road noise, of which I had a lot, with MT tires. Doors close with a nice solid sound now.

    I used 400 on my bumper and grill that I painted with rusto bedliner. Then I just hit it one more time with regular black and some clear, but it will probably work to just sand it down.

    Anyone have a picture of the stock battery tray? I have a trail gear optima battery tray / holder in mine and if I switch batteries I'll have to get one - just wondering what I'm missing.

    That thing looks clean though - I like it!

    I can get you a picture tomorrow most likely. I'm going to install my Optima and will likely be removing the stock tray.

    Thanks btw.

    MUAHAHAAHAHA!!!! Such an evil genious.

    So I had the same issue as others did with TYC aftermarket headlight pivoting b.s. I said screw it, Sunday night. No time to request an rma, no time to wait for shipment. I pulled off the pivoting hardware from the oem headlights and swapped them over. They were a pain but well worth it.


    MUAHAHAHA!!!!
