I installed my air compressors, wired up and they worked the first time I tried it.

So while I have my radio out, dash off, F650 dash removed I figured I would replace the PIAA on/off switch and hook those up to the switches on the f650. That would be for the front and back up lights.

Holy crap still have a lot to do, but I have 5 more days to finish.

Youngest turns 3yrs old in 14 minutes.

Still to do:
1. install train air horns.
2. wire back up lights.
3. remove PIAA switch and wire to f650 dash switch.
4. find a place to install viair gauge. I think I'm going to mount it in the glove box. (already have enough gauges glowing in view)


I think thats it for now.

5. re install everything.

Again, thank you ford engineers for having to remove 45 things to replace 1.

I have to take the camper back to storage. Had the police come over yesterday and threaten us. We are in volition of a city ordinance. It's parked over the sidewalk. Someone called and complained yesterday morning they had to walk a extra 4 feet around the hitch on the cement. There is a hose connected to test the water lines and they said it looked like someone was living in it. Why do people have to be such pain in the asses.
