You better get some dark *** tint or the sleep look is lost on that great looking interior!

What adapter do you buy for that stearing wheel? I will want an aftermarket wheel in the HD.

What happen to budhayes3? remember seeing his posts all the time! Regarless nothing is worse then loosing someone around christmas!

Didnt plan on doing anything with the tint, but now that you mention it it is a pretty crappy tint job. The steering wheel mount is GRT-5167 by grant, its their long adapter that basically puts the wheel at the same place as the factory one.

Use the Jotto desk to hold the laptop for tuning I'm assuming? The whole thing looks great man, wish I had the money and the skills to pull something like this off. Someday maybe.

I have sat here for 2.5 hours reading every post/page of this build and i have to say that you have a very sweet truck on your hands.. I want to see how it turns those drag radials over once the trans is fixed and you get her tuned up.. I will also say that this whole build has also reminded me of why im doing the tvs1900 when i do my 6.0 build

I actually havent had the chance to use the desk yet, just picked it up off GMFS for a good price, but yes I plan to put my laptop on it. A lot easier than just putting it in the passenger seat.

We've got them in our work trucks with mini laptops mounted to them. I will suggest you take most of it out when you're not using it... they rattle... bad.

I just did the same thing. Nice build Rich. It'll be cool to see this thing in action.
