I took my hoseline ac out.... too much space and too robust for my needs But It was a lot more involved than I originally thought - I had to replace ac lines, coolant hoses, repair where it was spliced in to the factory loom harness etc. I'm still glad to be rid of it but just fair warning...

There is shade in desert areas , it's not all flat sand and dunes ya know

that's awesome, great rig - would love to have the extra space (mine's a regular cab) but then again I don't mind having a shorter wheelbase for offroad. for the pictures i had the same problem -turns out you have to open each .jpg and rotate it then save it to your computer.... then upload to...

I would love to have a garage at home for mine... rented one just for the duration of the major renovation then need to park it outside to cut expenses

Is that your rig,? very cool!

Thanks for the suggestions! I'm looking at a gun that goes all the way down to about 140* to start low. This rig has huge stars of life on each side plus the requisite stripes and labels Oh well no job gets done thinking about it 🙂

Thanks I have to get under and look at everything- rig only has 20 k miles but still nearly 10 yrs old. Going to buy a heat gun in the morning... will hope for the best but it's probably not going to be fun
