Yea that right, you and Jeff have been working on ol Bullet's elec. I really think the issue is in the t/s switch.

I was pretty sure the dimmer switch did not need to be grounded, but I just thought that that is one item not hard mounted yet.

I could get off work at noon one day this week, with enough heads up.

Thanks, I am not to happy with the way the vinyl floor mat laid out on the trans hump. Can't really complain.... it was free. I am liking the fit of the SD rear seat.

Wow been a while since I updated this. Ol red it is out of the garage under it own power. Minus the aft gas tank, it rusted up and I took it out. Cab grab handles are installed. And I am planning my next move on what to do. Interior is almost done. I need to put a fresh coat of paint on the flat bed and get it on next to stay working on the outside.
