    These were taken after I slid into a ditch at 30 mph. Amazed that I didn't do any damage to the truck.

    Got some new sideposts that aren't seized and oxidated.

    Some poor sap ahead of me in line just spent $227 on a Fuel Pressure Sensor. Felt a little bad for him.

    Wish my camper shell had the windows on the side that open up. It's a pain having to climb all the way in to get stuff in the bed.

    What a stark difference. Mine started looking a lot like the crap-mobile on the right when I first got it.

    Would like to add these are both 1998's. Only difference between the cabs is the bumpers and the 5-lug frame.

    The other one also went 350,000 more miles than the other one.

    Where'd you get that rubber line/hose running into the intake tube? Mine are all dry rotted and cracked and I'm looked to replace them.

    Well I changed out the battery posts and cleaned the hell out of them. Tried a new battery and still have the same problem.

    Gonna try pulling fuses now. There's also this big ass broken positive cable that's just cut? No idea what it's for.

    It has to be a main power fuse. It's rated for 30 Amps. I have no idea what that cut wire is for or what that fuse is for I'd have to check the manual really quick.

    I misread. It's an 80 Amp fuse for the ALT which is Alternator I assume?

    IMG_6417.jpg

    Now how do I get that burned fuse out? I keep pulling on it but the plastic is so brittle it just shatters.
