[Hokie LX]

I have a set of new globes sitting in a box ready for my LX here soon. While the process seems straightforward, let me know when you get around to doing it. Will be interested to see if it's as simple as it seems.

It is as simple as it seems. Make sure to relieve pressure by loosening the nipples before you take off globes.

I'll be making a lot of videos regarding the restoration of this truck. The goal is for the YouTube channel to eventually offset some of the cost of the restoration.

I'll be replacing the globes within the month most likely. A friend is sending me some spares from his AHC delete

I'll probably have some spares soon, too, and I'm in your neck of the woods. Just need to find time to install my lift kit.

If you've got some after the install, I'll gladly take them off your hands

Good news!

My parts sheet is now up again. Thanks to a friendly member of the community who saved it.

You'll have to request access

ValleyTech paint job...looks like there have been a few upgrades to the spindle but the frame mounts have stayed the same, as has the quality control

Other random stuff:

Lee came over (@ga12r1 ) and got his new Dissent front mounted. Looks like a different truck.

I pulled the actuator and motor. Thing is in such good shape that it made me want to throw up hahaha. I wish I hadn't removed it. Oh well. Put some new FIPG sealer all around, bolted it back on, and it's still not working 100% of the time. It just won't fit into the hog head (probably some corrosion build up since it was likely never used).
