Haha, was the only place I could pull the cabs, and figured I'd use the chain hoist to pull the motor and tranny too, I got the 2000 dash in, bolted right in, but I did have to change the door harness, same harness that goes up

to the dome light, so I took it all out of the 2000 which was ext cab so I put the rear speakers in the back of my cab to lol, just had to plug em in,

This build reminds me of Alex and Mugly. I love perseverance in the face of adversity. Some of us will always find a way to get it done!

Good work brother and thanks for sharing with us!!!

I've been following your post and admire your work but don't feel everything in the "real" world belongs in my home. This board belongs to all of us and unlike a **** channel I shouldn't have to turn it off if I don't think it's appropriate. Thanks,

Well, you may not be particularly keen on the rules, but FTE is a family friendly site, and as such, the guidelines you agreed to when you registered here need to be followed.

Site Guidelines - Ford Trucks

2. Personal Conduct . Post language and material suitable for the home or office. Do not post foul language, racial epithets or sexually explicit content in any form. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. Posting for the purpose of gaining access to additional features of the site is not allowed.
Just FYI, it was a Super Mod that removed the post in question. I only bring that up because Super Mods are Super Grumpy, while us regular Mods are much, much nicer.

Stewart
