    Ahh no probs. Assuming its like mine. It should all bolt off. Unbolt all the pipe and flanges to the pump and anything else attached. Removed the drive shaft between the pto and pump. Be careful because just the pump body alone if F..ing heavy! Post a photo so we can see what your working with.

    I left the PTO attached to the transfer case disengaged and drive shaft to the pump removed in case i even want to use it. You can pull it off completely and get a cover plate if you want it gone completely. You'l have to just reference part numbers for the specific transfer case you have on...

    Got a few things done, Elbow saver for my freedom seed console. I used 5/8” ply, 3 layers of cheap yoga Matt and stapled down a cover from some old material I found at Salvation Army. Perfect height for driving. Also fitted a blue sea 1045 usb charger, and a ram phone holder to the dash...

    Ya had a bit of a hard time figuring out which model to order but as no one seams to know what OEM seats these trucks came with. But they turned out perfect fit and are very very nice seat covers, highly recommend!

    Tinkering with the freedom seed center console. Fits like a glove after a few modifications. Still needs a cup holder out front, cushion top, maybe make it hinge at the back and lockable.

    Really happy with how it turned out so far, just took a long time with all the other things going on in life. You can fold down all 3 sides for loading or remove them altogether if a guy needs to run it as a flat bed. Simple, strong and practical. I took the truck for a good run, ol 1HZ is...

    The slide out draw turned out really nice. I wired the extra revers lights in the OEM lights. They came together good. Cut some mudflaps from some Buyers 12"x18" 1/4" thick, just cut them to the size I wanted, and this image shows where i cut out for the exhaust pipe on the passenger side...
