Some new stuff on the truck

Well did some stuff to my truck today. 1st I went to pick-a-part and got a shifter out of new dodge with the overdrive button on the shifter and the plug that goes on the light swith. I had to get the plug because the guy before me decided to cut the one that was on there off. So i solderred the wires and shrink tubed them. So it looks profesional lol. After i installed all of that I started on the gov spring and removing the afc lever. Its alot of work haha took me a while but got it. Didnt get to drive it yet but ill drive it in the morning.


Here is a pic of the shifter

hey ,, some that i would do is before u start your truck up ... i would pull the intake tube off the turbo and get a piece of plywood so if the truck runs away u can shut her down. just put the wood over the turbo if it does ... u may no this but i would rather say it ,,, and u save your engine then ... not say anything to u .. and hear about it later
