$620 for Line-X over the rails, 8ft box, and the extra UV layer. Worth every penny, he really put the time into the prep work!

Replaced some leaking seals & gaskets. While I was there added a new oil pump.

Adam: I have to tell you again how awesome that bedliner made the back of your square look. I scrolled past it again and was like "Damn!"

I bought a set of used 15x10 Dick Cepek DC1 rims off Craigslist for $170 bucks. They need to be cleaned up and polished and mounted....they are the wife's Christmas gift to me so I have to wait :( I'll take pics when I get em.

Well. My project has been sitting for about two years. Finally have gotten back to it.

Fabbed in a mid 90's dodge bench seat (middle fold down console, power driver seat!).

Ran wiring and speaker wire up window pillar (constant power dome, dome switched with dash light, future running light, future light, future speakers).

Installed second fuse panel near battery.

Installed new stereo, amp 4 speakers (harder than I expected!).

Put dash back together.

After putting it off for 5 years, I finally had a rear d-shaft made for the '88 Burb. The old one was too short and I had been running a conversion joint, the new one fits perfect and has 1350 joints at both ends. Installed it the other day.

I had been DD-ing my '90 a bunch also (the really rotted one), but after a couple blasts through the woods last friday night, it no longer has a muffler or tailpipe and it has a major fuel leak on top of the tank somewhere. I think the body moving around on the frame probably smacked the rusted sending unit.

When mine was doing that it was the upper shock stud. It had come loose an was banging around. That's why you see so many squares with those holes wollered out....

Put some lockumtight on there if that's what it is. Mine even had a locking nut but still worked loose.

Drove mine all over the place this past weekend. Even up to king of prussia and lancaster pennsylvania. Put about 150 miles on it in 2 days. Now I'm using it to move all my stuff to my new place in oxford.
