    Backlights are 194. Turns may be or they may be 74. I don't remember. I stopped going to LEDs on these things. Found more often than not they ended up super tacky. But super bright LEDs lists what each bulb is.

    The idiot light bulbs (including turn signals) are 74

    The backlights are 194

    The low gas bulb is different, says a14 on it

    Finishing up the rear axle seal/wheel bearing R&R this morning. Had a blown seal on D side and brakes were a slimy mess and WB was shot on that side as well. New seals, bearings and brakes both sides. The messiest job I've had yet, hate drum brakes.

    I picked up a super nice 20T air/hydraulic press off of Craigslist so I could do this job, added a foot switch and it made the job a breeze. Press paid for itself on this first job. Next comes the 5spd trans rebuild.

    BIG Thanks to @Timmah! for the videos and the humor!

    secret stuff.
    Yesterday: Drive train vibration resolution. Belt had popped and was shaking the shit out of the truck over 40mph. Tire was trying to become a pretzel when dismounted!

    New shoes:

    Today: Rear diff u-joint that was also in need. Thought it was the center bearing and this u-joint that was the truck shaking culprits which ended up being a tire. Replaced anyway.

    Finally installed the remanufactured OEM CV I ordered several months ago. Had a leaky boot on my FEQ axle that finally gave up the ghost.

    That was a perfect opportunity to swap out that problematic diff bearing with the ECGS sleeve!
