Nice. They seem to like to come off real easy. I think it might be a good idea to epoxy them in.

Re: My 02 Fx4 Black Build Thread
Just installed a Weatherguard Saddle 154 toolbox. It is beautiful. Also retrofitted Whelen PAR32 LED fog lights. I will upload pictures of these new goodies shortly.

Re: My 02 Fx4 Black Build Thread
New Toolbox pictures:
Inside: Basic Hand Tools, Breaker Bar, 1/2 Drive Impact Sockets, Dewalt 20V Brushless Impact with (2) 4.0a batteries, 2 Dewalt Bit sets+socket adapters, Jumper Cables, 20' Tow Strap w/ Hooks, Ratchet Straps, Emergency Blanket, and 6 ton Bottle jack.
Any recommendations of other things that you think a college kid should have in his toolbox (mostly for emergencies)?

A high lifter jack is also a good idea.

Re: My 02 Fx4 Black Build Thread
Story time.
Sold this truck in 2017 after it had sat for 2 years in the parents driveway while I was at college. It sat because the transmission let go, and would not go into gear. The friend of mine had the ability to save the truck and installed a functioning junkyard transmission. He drove it for two years, blew up the rear end and installed a junkyard rear end. At the end of his 2 years, he sold it back to me, with a lot more rust than it had 4 years prior, but still running, driving and stopping.
Graduated college, bought a house two years later and now it is once again my daily driver as the price of used vehicles has skyrocketed.
