It's looking like a truck again! May fine tune bed fitment with some shims, but this is how it looks for now.
In addition to getting the bed set on the frame, I also finished wiring for the taillights, fuel pump, rear locker as they are all in the same branch of loom. Got an order of new lenses and installed as well as some cables for the tailgate since the original supports are sheet metal and annoying to use/it's really easy to destroy paint with them. The fuel pump wiring isn't totally done as I want the ecu to trigger the fuel pump relay instead of the ignition switch. Pet peeve when you turn the key on and the fuel pump buzzes nonstop.
Fuel tank kinda bothers me but we shall see what it looks like once there's a rear bumper. This isn't necessarily the final iteration of the fuel system, just the first idea I put into motion.
I also wired the heater controls and redid some of the cabling. It doesn't feel as smooth as I would like so there's a chance I re-make the cables with some nicer material.
May also buy new heater controls altogether but working with what I have at the moment. It's not great but could be worse. That's all for this weekend, bunch of odds and ends to tie up before I can buy and wire in the engine controller.
