Defective.


Solution.

 

my 96 and the 2002 are both still good!

 

dash covers.. why fix the problem when you can just cover them up?!

 

It's the American dream. Mines just got a few cracks in it, though they are getting worse. I try to park under a tree as much as possible. Rather look at bird sh*t and tree sap than a cracked up dash. If I do park in the sun I've got a sun visor and a towel, they work great.

 

Both of mine are cherry. Both trucks live in the Sun.

 

That is what I said. Until 3 months ago when I hit a puddle on the side of the road and it pulled my truck hard to the right. It cracked my dash right in front of me. From top to bottom. I almost cried.

 

I also think that backing the screws out a few turns would help with some "give". I am talking about the screws in the front.

Lickily NOW, two screw mounts in the front have cracked off the main part of the dash, so no cause for structural stress there NOW.

I was too ashamed to take pictures of my cracks.

 

mine looks likes PC'S with a carpet mat to cover it, i dont want or need to know now how it looks now, lol, we get the jiffs? no?
