  1. I discuss the crap they keep adding in the name of "safety"....when all they are trying to do is program people for autonomous vehicles...the old adage of how do you pen a wild pig....a little bit at a time. Jeep is actually starting to show some issues....one of the flagship models, can't remember which, but it was an SUV, that was basically failing at 90% sold w/in a month of sale...basically don't buy one....NOT GOOD for a company on the ropes.
  2. Which are you referring to? The red circles definetly are not stock for a B series. The center (yellow) could be stock, how wide is it and how big is the box? The light is stock, just wrrong side.
  3. you glorious bastard.....you had me for a second!
  4. You'd know better than me!
  5. Those are not stock brackets for a PH truck, likely an aftermarket or homemade part.
  6. Yah I've never seen a pass side one in the wild....I'd guess even more rare than the B3/4 sheetmetal pass mirror arm.
  7. First off, stock trucks did not come with a passenger side taillight. They COULD be added I'd guess and either the plate light could just shine down or be blocked of in some manner.
  8. Mac V Sog? Never knew that about him....tough as nails! RIP
  9. if the gel doesn't work out... https://www.interstateplastics.com/Acrylic-Yellow-2016-Cast-Paper-masked-translucent-Sheet-ACRY6CPSH.php?thickness=0.118&dim2=12&dim3=12&src=adwordspla&thisisforcallrail=1&campaignid=225228743&adgroupid=37851262274&creative=153445283219&matchtype=&network=g&device=c&keyword=sheets-ACRY6CPSH-0.12-12.00-12.00&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkdO0BhDxARIsANkNcreiNp6xAXbHOPtuVqWl_McCfRWm2Ww83427zLSCjGrKUt7O4ENJxhcaAq3gEALw_wcB&
  10. still your work buddy!
  11. John T got artsy at the 50's this year...so, I did a different arsty shot of Joe's route van off my door. Waiting for John to post no longer! Hard to get a pic with no people!
  12. Welcome. Please review the posting rules about requesting parts on the general forum. I have edited that info out of your post. Site mod.
  13. After getting my 90° down fitting decided I needed a tich more room for potential heat issues....and the results:
  14. Most mirrors have a roll formed edge to hold the glass...VERY tricky to try and pry away and then even trickier to put back w/o the right tooling. Best of luck!
  15. I had found a company in the past that refurbishes old mirrors. found my old post here: quick check on the link tho shows a deadend. Maybe try the email address to see if still in business and report back?
  16. 51 B3D: "FEF" combination of initals of all the family owners (ggdad's first, father's middle, my last) "51" project custom truck: "TODD" from an inside joke with my friend I got the engine from and original working name of PHTD (Pilot House Turbo Diesel) 51 1.5 ton: "ART" since he sits by the fire pit as yard art 51 B3D flatbed: "PARTS" because his primary role is parts 51 COE: "PUMA" shop cat took ownership as a napping spot 51 Farmall: (trails and property mower) "MAC" from McCormick Farmall 01 GMC Sonoma: "Big Blue" since he is a small blue truck 01 Polaris 4 wheeler: "CAM" since he's camoflage finish 2019 Buick Encore: wife's vehicle "WASH" from the Serenity pilot's name in the TV show "Firefly" since he could pilot so well
  17. Better a hipster coffee house then a parking lot or high rise apartment
  18. I participated in the insanity that everyone seemed to be doing this last weekend. I got some pics, sadly mostly blurry trying to hold the phone still enough for the light capture. I was hoping for a cool pic with the truck in foreground, but alas...blurry. But here ya go, post what you may have gotten!
  19. Yes HUGE coronal mass ejections....seems to be a 20 or year cycle. I'll post a thread for the north side.
  20. No offering/trading/selling/giving of parts on the open forums. Either take this to PM or "classifieds".
  21. Ran across this guy on Ebay....he's a "local" guy (1.5 hours away) and I drove up and looked thru his stuff to get what I needed. He definetly has a huge supply. If you are looking for things, check out his Ebay store and see if you can find what ya need. Super nice guy. https://www.ebay.com/usr/dsiceman
  22. Welcome! Post some pics! And as 46Bulldog said, make sure when you talk about the rims you say split RING rims not split RIMS. The later is WAY more dangerous and hardly anyone will touch, lock ring rims are safer and you can still find shops to work on them.
  23. not near totality.....but I got so see this!
