Welcome!

So, I was looking for a nice truck with the intention of converting it to 2wd, but I think this one might be too nice to do that to. Right now, I'm just tinkering with the little things that it needs to be reliable and comfortable to drive.

Today was alternator and battery replacement. I pondered doing the SI internally regulated alternator conversion, but couldn't bring myself to alter the stock wiring, so it got a rebuilt externally regulated unit with the original fan and pulley swapped on. Also wire-wheeled and painted the bottom of the battery tray. Couldn't resist a little rattle-can resto while I was at it
