Holy cow!

That is one hellava dash! Sweet!

I'll have to bring a couple photos out to the truck for comparison. Maybe I can take some measurement, like how far the stick is away from the dash when moved all the way forward.

Thanks!

Chris did you order your switches through roan65? You have different selection then what I see on his site.

It looks like the parts come from the national parts depot out of Detroit. I wonder if I buy the lower panel directly from themor if I have to go through the dealership. Does anyone have an idea. I am trying to look up the telephone number now.

Chris,
Can you get a pic of how you mounted your CB? I haven't mounted mine yet in my new Excursion, and would like to get some different ideas.
Thanks in advance!

I have a manuel 4x4 shifter and it works fine. several inches of clearance. Go for it. Nice job Brandon.
EDIT.
Wow this is old. I didn't notice how many pages there were. I guess the 16,000+ hits should have been a clue.

Here are some photos of my setup. No adjustable pedals on this old truck but i'm sure it's pretty easy to cut the hole by drilling with the correct size bit first then using a dremel to square it off.

I can see it now... you ask your wife to help you out by sitting in the cab and turning on the fuel pump. The conversation goes something like...

Her "I can't find it."

Him "WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU, I'M UNDER THE TRUCK?"

Her "DON'T USE THAT WORD WHEN THE KIDS ARE HOME! I CAN'T FIND IT!"

Him "IT'S THE LOWER-RIGHT BANK, THIRD ROW DOWN, SECOND SWITCH FROM THE LEFT" "WHAT WORD... TRUCK?"

This is about the time where the whole thing spirals into an unromantic evening.
