From what I found the transfer case is a m10x1.5 thread and beer tap are 3/8-16 thread
Not sure if you'll be able to find a readily available adapter

 

[USMC1188]

Awesome, congratulations! That doesn't sound like a bad deal at all!
Check out the thread I did to fix the seat, mine sucked!

Damn, thanks for looking at that lol, I hadn't gotten a chance. I will figure something out

Started prepping my bed do to the spray in bed liner Saturday. This truck has had a drop in POS bedliner it's entire life.

So, went from this:

To this:



To this:


I am planning to get it sanded down tomorrow during the day, so then all I have to do Saturday is spray it

Should look great, I love my spray in liner. This is my third truck with one, I couldn't see not having one, kind of like rain guards.

 

[USMC1188]

Thanks! I hated my drop in liner, and after seeing what was underneath, I hate it even more!

I had a spray on in my old 05 and absolutely loved it! I just can't justify spending $6-700 on a line-x or something similar. So I'm doing it myself!

 

[Stangshcky12]

So,etching else on my to do list for both trucks!
Are you doing the Upol kit?

Yes sir! It will be here tomorrow! I have a Truxedo cover sitting in the garage that will go on after it's done.

 

[Stangshcky12]

Let me know when you want to stop over and do another and another hahaha

 

[USMC1188]

Haha sounds great! It really doesn't look that hard... just tedious. A lot of sanding, taping, covering up and spraying!

I fully expect pics tonight with the liner in.

 

[USMC1188]

Haha liner didn't go in today. But, I got the bed completely sanded down and spot primed!



Tony and I are doing it tomorrow morning, I can't wait!

 

[USMC1188]

Finished the bedliner today! It looks awesome, I couldn't be happier with the results!

Thanks to Tony for all his help!

Tape job... this part was the biggest pain of the job right next to sanding down the bed


From there it is simple, just point and spray. I think we ended up straying right at 65psi. The spraying part only took about 30 minutes for the entire bed and tailgate. We had one incident where the paint peeled back and bed liner ended up down the side of the truck. Fortunately quick thinking got it removed using rubbing alcohol.

Here is the finished product, I absolutely love the feel and look of it. I am letting it dry for a couple more days before I put on the new roll up Truxedo tonneau cover.



And of course, we couldn't let a sunny day go by without a little photo session!
