Appreciate it. As far as the trans swap, I just really didn't want to do it myself on my back on jackstands. If I had a lift I would have done it myself. I also took the opportunity to have them build an exhaust and work on the tuning

Not really truck related, but I took the plunge (she said yes)

Amazing what these little things cost, so truck is not getting any love unless I've already purchased the parts

If you need to sell the truck to recoup, HMU.

Thanks guys, tentatively planning for a 2020 wedding. Hoping to keep the truck until the end of next year, then I'll probably part it out. There's a lot of stuff I want to see finished on it before I let it go, also some things I want to do like a proper photoshoot, go to the track, etc..

Wasn't happy with the coaxial sundown door speakers, so I am reinstalling the sundown components

Added some nutserts

Test fit

Finished product. Tweeters are on plugs like stock to I can remove the door panel easier

Put the sundown tweeters in the stock bracket

Installs just like the factory ones

Looks factory

While I'm waiting for my battery charger, I tackled the alternator wires I've been wanting to do for a while. Here's how it looked before with just a 4ga to the junction box

Made a new 4ga wire that is routed better

It's more tucked in now, and I also ran a 1/0 straight to the battery

I need to order more red heatshrink for the battery side, but I can do that later
