Well I did a little piddling around today. Found some more PO half-assing. The back speakers were all jacked up. I didn't think to take pictures of that.

Keep at it!!

You don't seemto mess around. I'll be watching this one very closely. Excellent start though.

I finished gutting the carpet, seats, and console. There were at least 3 boxes worth of baking soda underneath the carpets. Also, the carpet had a rip in it...check out how the PO "fixed" it. I need new weather stripping for everything on the truck...I didn't do any direct shots on any openings the other day when I pressure washed it but the carpet was wet in several places today. I had planned on the new strips anyway. Does anyone know how much Dynamat I would need to fully line the tub?

tvblazer78 · 02-26-2009, 09:28 PM

Thanks guys...I am kind of disappointed though. I told myself I was gonna get at least a dollar or two change out of the deal but I only found a dime!!!

Hey guys,
Little update...I don't think I am going to change it over to a 2WD...it's a lot of work and money...and all my extra money just went towards this...

tvblazer78 · 03-08-2009, 10:49 PM
