    That actually sounds pretty pleasant, I prefer the cold.

    Hell yeah! If you want to go for a ride in the hovermobile the seat will probably be open

    Nice, going to be a really cool shop when everything is said and done. I'd love to build a shop with a house above it.

    They were aftermarket Cardone HD CV's. They were like $60 each so if I have to buy another and swap the boots again I won't be too upset. Actually, now that I think of it, I could swap the boots and send the other back.

    Buenos dias!

    It's been off and on, we had a nice big shower earlier. Should make my grass happy.
    Would you be interested in the 6 switch console? Someone had a center console switch panel available

    So I'll probably sell my Meso overhead panel.

    Ya I keep all kinds of crap in there. I'll just have to find a new home for my pens and sanitizer and spare magazines

    I think so too. All of my switches in one convenient spot. Plus all my pre-wiring is nearly complete, it'll be more or less plug and plug and plug and plug and plug and plug and plug and play

    Have you ever seen a decent A-Pillar mount for two gauges that fit our trucks? I want to do oil temp and pressure gauges there.

    Why yes, yes i have. I've got the Lotek in mine. Fitment is okay, not perfect, but they're the only company im aware of that makes them for these trucks. I'm ocd af, and i'd buy it again

    @hoverlover next time i see you, you can take a closer look at it in my truck. Kinda hard to see the imperfections from the pic. Texture is a little different, color ever so slightly different, but not enough to notice. Main thing is you have to sand the holes for the gauges to go in a little bit to get a nice fit (they mold them this way purposely so they arent too big for your gauges). Other than that, some minor fitment on the grab handle, but that can be fixed as well by englarging the holes on it
