Default bleeder looks good

Using the fuel line tee and that air bleeder is a pretty effective long term solution.

We appreciate the jpg's.

I assume the aux port has a strong signal? I have heard that sometimes one has to insert a unconnected mini plug in the rear one as there is some kind of shorting circuit that has to be bypassed to get a strong signal.

The shorting circuit is to keep "hiss" from feeding into the sound system when the rear jack is not in use.

A very strong signal and yes I have a blanking plug in the rear aux port. The sound quality is loud enough and no hissing. I'm planning on hooking up my ipod classic video to my nav screen next. I got the fakra cable hooked up just need to get the av video plugs later today. I'll post pics later.

Default blanking plug

Thanks for confirming re the blanking plug - it can be sort of a show stopper and kind of hard to figure out that it is needed.

Additional jpg's will be appreciated.

Front windows tinted, 2.5" lift rods, new Memphis audio speakers and tweeters, dual battery (Optima), amplifier and two 12"s. Wanting black plastic dip the wheels but wasn't sure if it'd look good but now I've seen it on here and looks nice!

It has been a while since I have had a chance to work on the truck.Today I installed a National Luna split battery system with a Optima yellow top.Not bad to install after I purchased a pair of Hydrolic crimpers.

It looks good. Would you tell us what kind of paint you used?


I doubt it was house paint but was it some sort of special plastics paint or what I would call car exterior paint for metal?

Satin black Krylon Fusion paint It's supposed to bond to plastic better but I scuffed up all the lights before I sprayed them.

GRover, Do the taillights come apart same way as the headlights? I thought they might be fused together differently. I have never seen anyone mod the taillight before. Well done!
