It was oil change day so did that and then added this ez drain valve. I've checked it 3 times in the last few hours for leaks lol so far so good. I dont know why I'm having a hard time trusting it, but hopefully it is a awesome product. 2c296852a91e079bb1f05517a6d01d6a.jpg

Looks great, I have been thinking of doing the same thing.

Got the bed rhinolined. The only spot that had rust was on the hitch between the rim and the one sheet on drop in plastic right there. Would’ve done line-x but that would’ve cost an extra $200. Overall super happy with it. The bed looks 100% better with the spray liner.
Also, wired a new Pioneer radio with backup camera into the truck. Decided to trust the reviews on Amazon for the dash kit, so glad someone mentioned in their review that it covered the half moon knob cutouts.
Oil change in two days.

Sweet, what wire did you tap into for reverse to activate the camera and head unit?

I haven’t done that quite yet. Doing a little more research. Seems like I should be able to find a purple and white wire in the wire cluster behind the left kick panel. My dad and brother have testers that will help me see which one activates when reverse is being used.
Currently I just have the camera set as one of my top four options and I push it when I want it on and off

I just replaced the driver's seat cushion. The old one was NASTY. Smelled so bad of cigarette smoke. Question - can the same part number/seat cushion be used for the passenger seat?

Original foam... barf.

New foam installed

Original seat cloth. Yeah, I see re-upholstery in the future. Maybe leather.

All put back together.
