something else you can do is grab the magnets off the back of blown speakers.
these are in many sizes and easily found at scrap yards.
Great work on the truck so far, keep it coming!

Good idea on the speaker magnets... I wouldn't have thought about that...

I have a strange work schedule but every day that I am off during the week I work on the truck about 6-8 hours. The problem is that when I find a problem I can just look over it... (Which is a good thing...) I have to fix it to the best of my ability. Basically a learning process. (I'm getting better) But this project is taking a lot longet than I expected...
