Couldn't find the time to get back under the truck so fiddled around with this printed cupholder. I still need to sort out how I'm going to secure it to the console there.

The SEM Monterrey is just about as close a match as you can get to the Oak interior on the 40th. Working on replacing a broken recline stud and the painted button looks spot on.

VHB tape would probably work.

I picked up a roll of 3M Dual Lock. Problem is without the wood trim there's a pretty big space to fill so I'm hoping that I can either double it up or get some 1/4in foam/board to glue to the bottom of the holder. This wouldn't be an issue if you had the trim.

Holley blue pump,100 series sub tank,dual filler neck…also took delivery of Arp hub and knuckle studs and nut huggers…gonna be busy
 
Yep I could do that too although it "might" obstruct the left turn signal/tail light. I'd have to go measure it. I don't think there's enough room between the tire and holder to make that side an option.
From what it looks like in the photo it looks like you've got plenty of room on the side by the taillight. I think you have more room than I did when I moved mine to the side like that.
 
Did a quick little headlight bulb upgrade. Bought some sylvania 9012 HIR2 bulbs to replace the stock 9006. Trimmed a little bit of the tab like I read the headlight thread about this, i hope I didnt miss something and don’t need to change anything else too like new wiring or something.🤷🏻‍♂️
Seems all good so far🙏🤞🏼
In the first pic i have just the drivers side swapped out. Def can notice the difference…and when i took it for a quick spin i def noticed it shine further out too. I hated having the super white brighter ones. Thank you ih8mud.

I think you're right. I checked it out this morning and I believe that option will work too.
 
Drove it to the toy store and bought a new toy.

Mmmmmmm. Buck Mark goodness. Crisp trigger and John’s ergonomics. I love mine.
 
I wonder if those nut huggers are now made in Australia? 🤔
I apologize on behalf of the majority of Aussies for that individual's behaviour.

I did a brake fluid flush (and clutch) and put the tyres and wheels off my HJ47 on it because the PO had a new set of tyres on the rear and ~60% on the front which I assume wasn't doing the drivetrain any favours. The white doesn't look as bad as I expected but it will only be temporary.

How was the fit of the Slee kit? Did it include everything you needed? Meaning did you have to get materials to extend wiring or anything.

Considering that or Delta myself.

I just deleted my SLEE in favor of the Delta. Far superior product. PM me if you want a deal on the SLEE Washer Bottle Relocation Kit. It’s sitting in my bench RTG.

In what ways is Delta superior? I see it's a bit more expensive, so I would hope so. I recently pulled the trigger on a fridge, so I'm compiling my house power plans with a relocation kit a definite.

I had the slee also and went delta. The slee, unfortunately, was not very rigid. Did not fit as well as I thought it should either. The delta is a bit of a pain to install but, very rigid and much cleaner. The only negative is that I originally wanted to access the grommet in the fire wall behind the delta to run all wiring to my new dual battery setup from my Witsend QPM and switchpros setup. The Delta blocks that. In all other ways, it is superior.
 
I relocated my washer bottle with some leftover bits of an old garage door opener lol.
