I cant say much here, i used a wire with a blade connector stuck in the fuse contact and run to my choke for power as i didnt know how to do it. Same with the power for the light in my tach... i dont plan on selling this truck so noone will have to put my stupid po **** in this thread.
Lmao...I have heard stories of people using 22 cal long rifle rounds (live rounds) in place of the old style round buss fuses.

And....I have even heard a story of brothers who were out frog giggin and blew a fuse. One of the brothers had the brilliant idea to use a loose round in place of the fuse. When they arrived home, the drive was hit in the ankle when the round went off inside the cab. When their mother saw the blood from the gunshot, her first question to the brothers was..."well.....how many frogs did y'all get tonight." Her next question was of course "how did you get shot?"...lol

PO cut off the end of the truck, removed the trailing arms and installed a leaf spring set up forward of the original location and shortened the stepside bed, the main problem is they welded on the shock hangars where the shocks were almost horizontal so they wouldn't move and as such it was like having the axle bolted directly to the frame. I started with a clean slate and basically did a longbed to shortbed conversion and installed an entire new rear section of frame all the way back.
