Royal Sierra Posted May 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 put a passenger side mirror on the truck and you should be fine Not required on a truck this old. I have the mirror though. Thought about putting it on but eh I can see just fine. No blind spots 1 Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Not required on a truck this old. I have the mirror though. Thought about putting it on but eh I can see just fine. No blind spots It is required if the rear window view is blocked, like when hauling debris, when towing a trailer, when there are so many stickers that the cop thinks you cannot see out that window, it doesn't matter if you can see thru the window, what matters is if the cop thinks you can see out that window, but if you have a passenger side mirror he legally cannot even stop you for the stickers. 1 Quote Link to comment

Royal Sierra Posted May 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 We'll see what happens. I had a county mounty behind me today and he didnt pull me over even though I was expecting it. I wouldve been pissed cuz my food wouldve gotten cold 1 Quote Link to comment
tdaaj Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Probably didn't puull you over because he didn't feel like dealing with all the violations. That shit takes awhile to write out. 3 Quote Link to comment

Royal Sierra Posted June 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 After a fun run or two at Canby, I ran the truck harder than I ever have and now its dripping oil from the timing cover like no other. Gonna reseal it and the oil pan gasket. While I wait for the gaskets to show up, I painted the wheels black and got my 1300 badges on. Got a bunch of missing stuff at Canby like the heater box knob, and package tray. Might pull the front bump stops out too if I get around too it. Im tired of the skateboard ride. Also ordered 4" blocks. 4 Quote Link to comment

Royal Sierra Posted August 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Thanks. Also threw in the inner glovebox and heater box knob...nearly complete. Maybe tomorrow I'll throw in the 4x4 springs. Doubt it, but maybe. Also did the LED swap on the cluster but forgot the pictures lol 2 Quote Link to comment

Royal Sierra Posted October 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Took the truck by Harolds house and finally got ahold of him. I left a note saying Id be back by Saturday at 3:30. Saturday rolled around and he was waiting by the door. He was impressed that the truck was up to daily driver status once again and all the minor upgrades we did like EI, regearing etc. He asked me to rev it up for him so I pinned it when I left. All I really want to do is get different seats, and MAYBE lower it more but I like it where its at. Maybe scrap my door panels and go with a more oem style...who knows. Also got bored and did a couple valve covers. Gonna run the blue one. 5 Quote Link to comment

Royal Sierra Posted October 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Yeah it was pretty neat. He told me stories about when he drove the truck to Canada and down to southern and eastern Oregon. All that driving with a 4:88 diff. Fuck that noise 3 Quote Link to comment

Doubt it, but maybe. Also did the LED swap on the cluster but forgot the pictures lol about those 4x4 springs- I'm assuming 720 4x4 rears? Do yours have those little stacks of what looks like pieces of leaf spring at the ends of the bottom leaf? Anyone know what their purpose is? They look expendable to me 1 Quote Link to comment
