This has an LT warranty as well. I finished tinting today. It went fairly well. I'll have to wait a few days to see how it really turned out.

I got new inner and outer window sweeps from Bronco Graveyard. The quality seems nice, but I had to salvage all the clips from the old ones on the inner ones clipped on the door panel. The outer ones worked. I'm not sure why these clips are not as long as the factory ones.

I also had to slightly trim back the rubber a bit and cut off some of the metal insert on the end so that the window would clear it.

The wheels really cleaned up nice. I got a new set of center caps and lug nuts.

Installed a CR Laurence sliding rear window. This went much more smoothly than I anticipated. I reused the original gasket after power washing it. The thin rope trick is definitely the way to go here. This was actually done prior to tinting.

The old tint was disgusting. Anyone in central Texas need a rear window?

Here's a couple pictures from the day I bought it. I forgot to post them. It was pretty dirty, but has cleaned up nicely. Luckily the interior didnt need much cleaning.

The first things I did were remove the Ventshade window treatment (this took forever), cut off the ugly tailpipe, and remove the tailgate cap.

Here's a neat pic from one of the first trips to the parts store.

The steering wheel was not on the best condition, so the leather had to go.

I ordered a Wheelskins leather steering wheel wrap to redo the wheel as close to original as possible.

For some reason Ford decided to make notches in the wheel where the seams where. I'm using JB Weld putty for plastic. I'll be wet sanding it smooth in a day or so.

Interesting stuff! I like SAS swaps as much as the next guy but I love this tidying up stuff!

It those little things that add up over time to a truck that you enjoy being in.
