Close enough. | After trying to de-rust the heater control valves only to have them return to their previous difficult ways I decided to try and find a replacement. These are close enough for the rear heater and should work for the front also. It may require a longer cable but it looks ok now (with the dash still out). | Here is a shot of the relays for the levelers. I haven't been able to find any information on the levelers themselves and Lippert won't respond to my requests. Wish me luck figuring out the 5 wire system. | Bit the bullet and had the rear grills powder coated.They really look 100% better and should last a lot longer than the rattle can method. | ||
A bit going on here. The Ramco mirror mounts needed a bit of reshaping to fit. The side LEDs are a simple bolt in job but are a bit more modern. The water fill had to move as the real estate where it once resided is now occupied buy the remote master cylinder reservoir. Besides being a leak potential where FMC located it. | Found some LED headlights that looked ok and didn't break the bank. The center white stripe will be for daylight running lights on the high beam side and the outside will flash with the turn signals. The difference in light output is amazing. | (3 Comments) Mounted they sure make the rest of the paint look bad. | (2 Comments) Cleaned up and ready to install. I'll be running seperate backup lights (as soon as I find some I like). The sequencer on the lights should generate a few remarks. | ||
(1 Comments) Here's a look at the back side. I needed resistors to keep the flasher happy and the small rectangular box is the sequencer. | I used JB Weld to attach these to the rear fiberglass.The bolt is flush with the FG and gives a bit of adjustment. | Found some LED's for the rear. Used some scrap aluminum for a bracket to replace the OEM plywood mount. Needed to recess the bolts so the mount will sit flush. | Have started on the wiring. This is looking at the bottom of the rear fuse panel. Integrating the donor steering column into the equation really complicates the job. The dash fuse panel will also be installed up front with the body control module. Wish me luck. | ||
