Where are you carrying your spare, with the air tank in the way like that?

First off thank you, it's been a fun project.

That was my bad it's actually a 10 watt, here's the link for more info. Basically just a much brighter light output then a standard incandescent bulb.

The retractable light in the engine bay is an ending light out of a 89 Chevy dually 1ton. It's made by Hobbs . It's a 1157 bulb that has a retractable magnetic base that unwinds & can stick anywhere on the hood then winds back into a housing I have mounted on the underside of the hood. I'll post a picture up as soon as I can.

What brackets are you using for the Recaros?

 

[SupaKewpa]

What brackets are you using for the Recaros?

I'm using home made onea. the brackets that came with the seats when we got em in the 90s & the stock brackets fabbed with one nether so that they fit just ever so perfectly

I'm really liking those Recaros. I love my SR5 seats, but they are over 30 years old now (came out of my '84) and getting tired, so if I ever need to replace them I would consider those.

 

[PhrogsPhorever]

Thanks. I'm torn on getting my stockers redone or putting new ones in.

Very nice truck

Yeah if you can find them I recommend em! They are super comfortable & & sit a little lower then the stock ones

Thank you sir!
If your half way handy they aren't that hard to modify. I just used a vise & a welder. Few tries & it came out just the way I wanted
