Default Its been a long Fing day!!!!

The day started out good with a run to the junkyard and 900lbs of junk got me 80 bucks. Got my dog his outside kennel and did some other odds and ends. The good.... Got my buckstop bumper installed "not totally complete" and my firestone air springs with on board compressor. No pics. hope to get some 2morrow, didn't have a pop rivet gun with a big enough end to install splash guards again. The only problem I have is now my bullydog and A pillar gauges dont work must have bumped the power wire or something running wires.

Sounds like a ground issue. What was the problem with the gauges and BD?

I like that bumper. Be sure to post more pics of it when you get a chance.

I called yesterday to get pricing on the Fusion rear bumper for mine. Have to wait till monday as nobody answered.

My buddy that helped me pulled the power source out by accident and I couldnt find the wire. As far as the radio goes I checked fuses installed the old radio I can get power and pick a station but nothing comes out of the speakers put the new radio back in and nothing. checked the ground and seems to be fine.

I really cant get a pic. of where I mounted the compressor because I put it in the passenger rear cab corner inside the panel to keep if from salt and moisture. The lines I tucked into the frame can't really see them either. The only think I can do is more of the bumper. I thought I was well prepared with everything I needed had everything sitting in a box took it to where I work pulled everything and thought $hit no camera. FYI radio magically came back on when I drove home from work last night.

My electrical teacher always said PFM lol

Thats the only part you can see before I sent it threw the frame.

This is where it comes out of the frame and I drilled a whole right next to the parking brake cable and ran it into my floor and along the until the firewall.

Just for $hits and giggles my 10month old pure black lab names of all Dodger lol almost got a yellow and named it diesel but my boss wouldn't let me
