  • In this week's episode, it's time to hook up and charge the A/C, get all the lights working, and re-install the grill/headlights up front. We are one step closer to taking this thing for a spin! A couple hiccups along the way, but good progress nonetheless. Next episode I will should be ready to finalize the rear suspension/ride height and test fit some big tires!

    You do great work. It’s nice to see someone else who is obsessed with 90s fords as much as I am.

    See this people? He DE-PINNED the connector and RE-PINNED the replacement into the harness. He did not hack and butt-connect. Thank you for showing UA-cam audiences the right way. Good work, great build!
    Per the Googles as I didn't know off hand either:
    3157: A 3157 bulb has four wires, which are called double wires. It has two brightness levels, one for higher brightness and one for lower brightness. 3157 bulbs are often used in cars for back up, reverse, trunk, and dome lights.
    3257: A 3257 bulb has two wires, which are called single wires.

    Years ago squirrels decided to squat in my f350. They chewed the wiring ,some vacuum lines and, sensors in the engine bay. I bought a new harness and stuff to replace the damage . And to this day what’s left of the old harness hangs on the shop wall in case I need an plug
