Gary Lewis Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Some of y'all attend car shows where the vehicles have "cards" that proclaim what they are and what's been done to them. I think it is time that I make one for Big Blue and am asking for your input on what I need to change in the document below. Basically my idea is that I'll print the pages out, laminate them, and put them on a piece of cardboard that I can prop up on/near the truck. So I've increased the font to as large as I can go, 18 point, and still get everything on two pieces of paper. Will that work? Thoughts, changes, input, deletions, etc please.

Gary Lewis Posted June 28, 2022 Author Share Posted June 28, 2022 I like it! That’s a lot of work! Thanks, guys. But I'm not looking for kudos, although I do appreciate them. Instead, I'm looking for upgrades. What changes need to be made? Should it be shortened? Am I missing anything? For instance, I have nothing in there about the medium-duty radio bezel, but might people want to know about it? I've said nothing about instrumentation, but might add these points: INSTRUMENTATION: Wide-band air/fuel ratio meter Rocketman-converted voltmeter Aftermarket voltmeter, oil pressure, & coolant temp gauges ICVR replaced with true voltage regulator to ensure accurate readings on factory fuel level, coolant temp, and oil pressure gauges Altimeter Is that too much? What needs to change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, if anyone has suggestions I'm all eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is off topic, but I have a couple of questions for some of the items you have added. Where did you get the Highliner headliner for a crew cab. LMC has one but it is for standard cab only. I need one for a supercab. And what brand of on-board air system did you install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you get the Highliner headliner for a crew cab. LMC has one but it is for standard cab only. I need one for a supercab. And what brand of on-board air system did you install? Big Blue is a regular cab truck. And the on-board air system is a Harbor Freight Fortress 1.5 HP unit. Yep, it is 110V AC, which is why I have the 3000 watt inverter. I took the system apart and put the compressor and controls in the toolbox and the tank under the fender in front of the RR wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
