Painted the diff cover last week, and never did show a picture. Here is a picture and the process...
My CB antenna install:
I grabbed a small piece of aluminum, and bent it to fit. It started out about 8 inch's long and 1 1/2inch's wide, and after bending here is the resulting mount. I think I may have to re do it though. It may whip in the wind more than I want...
Now onto relocating my trailer brake controller.
It came with the truck, but did not have a mounting bracket. I also have a ashtray that won't get used... Besides that it was broken on the back so I could not even use it as a change holder. So I thought to myself, "will it fit in the ashtray?"

- Spray it with brake clean to get all the grease off
- Spray two coats of your choice of paint
