This is not a dedicated trail rig, but does trailer to the destination usually. I am currently in the planning phase of doing a 52/56" spring swap, and getting back to being more road worthy.
Good snag today at work. My warehouse dude pulled this for me for free. Mine was cut right at the sensor, so this should make things a little easier.
I have a 7 inch tablet that is Velcro to my dash. It's awesome and I don't drive the truck without it.
Worked in the garage a bit tonight. Threw the correct TB on and ran a few more plugs. Got a lot of the wiring ran in the correct route. Should have all my sensors Saturday, so that’s next on the list. Then finish wiring, and running new power wires for the stand alone fuse block.
Wife mad me angry so I went back out to the garage to work and cool off. Got a few more sensors installed and hooked up the factory coolant gauge.
Cool temp sensor for the ECU
Temp sensor for the factory gauge. The plug came right out. Super easy. Also nice having the new wiring from classic industries.
Knock sensors installed.
Still waiting on the plug for the oil sender, and the correct cam sensor. Those will be the Saturday morning project.

Lookin good Greg!
Thanks man! It's been a collective effort though haha.
I'm really excited about having stuff work the way it should. The only gauges that worked were the oil pressure and fuel gauge. Made wheeling in the trees pretty stressful.
Nice!
As you can see from my marked up photo of yours, this is the location I had to move my driver knock sensor to (and it was a different part number cause that threaded whole is a different size than the normal one yours is in) because I did headers. When using manifolds, you don't have to do it. Just FYI really
And I'm glad your coolant plug came out easy. So did mine on my motor. I have ready many stories of guys that they didn't come out at all and they had to drill them out
Just had a guy on facebook who's plug broke off, and had to drill it. That would suck.

Make sure you stomp around the house with muddy boots today as soon as you get home.
Wife will get mad and you can make a bunch more progress!!
<sarcasm>
You guys have the best imaginable relationship advice.
</sarcasm>
It's funny I always get a lot more done when my wife pisses me off but I would rather spend the time with her if she can be a little more reasonable sometimes.

This is not a relationship forum. This is a truck forum. My post was relevant to the forum.<sarcasm>

Spent a little time under the truck this afternoon. Mounted the TAC module for the throttle. Reused some existing holes in the firewall.
Still having trouble figuring out where the wires route around the engine, but still making progress.

Ah crap, that’s what the other guy’s did.
Found a guy some what local to me that has decent fenders that match my factory blue. He said $40 for the pair. Going to pick them up this week.

Wait. Isn't this truck black?
The well used bed liner is. Scroll up and look at the firewall.
