Installed an LED map-light and switch. Light it supposed to me a courtesy/license plate light, but I thought it would look good and work well for this.

Put a Remy 110 amp alternator in place of the Motorcraft 95 amp unit. Motorcraft alternator had 85k on it and was still working fine, but due to the sound system ill be installing soon, I figured itd be good to do. Sure enough, the alternator had some squeeky sloppy bearings- prolly only had 10-15k left on it.

PITA to do as far as any alternator ive ever done, but I enjoyed it

Replaced the blower motor resister & the plug, now I have all 4 speeds instead of just high. It was so badly rusted the plug would not even come out of the resister.



Removed, cleaned, & repainted my trailer hitch.

After;

My blower motor doesn't shut off ever. It's either low, medium or high. If I turn it off, still blows air lol.
