    I was having fun with it, couldn’t respond to your last post with the attention it deserved until now, but I guess we can’t do it anymore. You certainly didn’t make me mad, and we were joking around in that other thread

    Been on this forum long enough to know that these are random BS threads. Even topic pacific threads get off topic sometimes, shit happens. I mean if you don’t like it just keep scrolling lol

    This response right here proves what I mean. We are just chopping it up. I might get blocked now lol

    Y’all can do whatever you want, half the thread’s ignoring the other fella because he runs his mouth and starts shit on a pretty regular basis so it’s just easier to block him out. Has nothing to do with people disagreeing with him, which he likes to cry from the cross he nails himself to. Has everything to do with the fact that at some point he gets his panties in a wad and starts taking shots at people. Kind of a shame he’s such a douche because he’s got a rad truck.

    Lmfao... (I realize you're blocking me)

    But I literally, never get "my panties in a wad"

    The crying sissies in this thread get their panties in a wad, and project it back on me.

    I don't get mad. I think it's fucking hilarious, actually.



    Today's case is evidence of EXACTLY what I just said :rofl:

    Haven’t crunched it yet. It’s actually spotless besides some oinstriping and a dent in one of the rockers. I’m just kind of tired of the truck being down. I don’t seem to do anything the easy way anymore and always take things to far which means I miss deadlines and miss trips. The second cab will let me cage it in the backyard and when I’m done essentially do a cab swap and be done. Can keep wheeling the truck while I get a cage done.

    Should be a cool little parts truck when I’m done with it.

    No... I'm not calling "everyone" a whining Karen and a sissy. Just the one's it applies to.

    There goes the typical conflation and misrepresentation, that's all too typical.

    And helpfull? Odd... let's take the discussion earlier today where @Logans2001 was having trouble... the "helpfull" comments from most of who you are talking about are noticably absent.

    Weren't you supposed to block me?

    Looks good, and practical. The lack of side visibility of the turn signals on these trucks really bugs me.

    Did you take any photos of the install process and wiring?

    So I had a similar issue with high idle. Shop smoke tested and found the the silicon hose coming off the pvc was leaking at the upper manifold. A oem hose fixed the issue.

    Those came out nice :thumbsup:

    And as @6P4 said, hopefully you have some pictures of the install... or at the very least, a link or description to the actual lights you used.

    Definately agree, the side markers on these trucks leaves a lot to be desired.

    Interesting way to go about it. I always figured you'd want to cage it with the truck to tie it into an engine cage and get your frame ties right. But can see it working out doing it that way.

    Well that's pretty damn neat. Pop those on Etsy or something if they fit all the Aisin hubs and I'd bet you'd make a few bucks.
