It's really fuzzy, but does that license plate say "BUILT not bought"? Your truck definitely deserves to wear that tag!

Yesterday, I put the rubber windshield washer hose on, installed a tailgate assist and changed the door locks to my door locks.


I need to get some plastic hose clamps to dress in the hose yet.



I cut off the black connector from the new hose (2011-2016) and plugged it rite into the 2000 hose connector.



With the step tailgate being heavier the tailgate assist is perfect!!

Vortex 1, I may have already asked you this somewhere in the thread. But where in Michigan you from? Trucks looking nice. Very good attention to detail.

Sorry it's been a while but there wasn't much to tell since last October except that the truck sat under cover all winter and I since changed the oil and one week ago took it to get it painted it's being worked on now. I'll post up pictures when it comes back and then I have probably two or three days to reassemble everything.

Life does get in the way sometimes....no doubt. I was lucky to have a bunch of clear weekends and good weather. That being said your job is much more involved than most of ours.
