whats the best source for good pricing and quality parts
I need door seals.. one piece rubber floormat... small stuff.. (I have used JC whitney for stuff like this in the past)
anyone have any favorites?
Spent the day continuing changing fluids... steam cleaned the entire undercarriage... no surprises.. no cab rust.. how refreshing.. found some minor rust in one rear box.. looks like something heavy was stored in it and banged around.. but its an easy fix.. a hour to cut out and fix.. about 4 in by 4 in... everything else is clean
there is probably 2 miles of add-on wiring.. some of it is sano.. some looks like a person who didnt care did it.. lots of quick connects etc... which might be ok on mommas station wagon but wont cut it for a fire truck.. it will be a chunk of time to make it right.. perhaps rewirng a bunch of the safety equipment and updating some of the control boxes
One surprise.. after I removed the seat I found an old rca lo band radio 70s vintage.. 2 feet x 2 feet.. probably weighed 50 pounds.. now there will be a nice storage area behind the seat...
In my factory manual it show Lo back Bostroms as an option for this truck.. wouldnt that be cool.. Im going to check them out.. if anyone has sources (other than Bostrom directly) let me know
Didnt look at the smog sticker yet.. I need a ladder to get up in there...
