    Doing a complete polish on the right tank for the first time. Had to cut the strap bolts off. New ones are dealer only and $37 each!!!! I have to replace the rubber under the straps. I already did the other side last year. 052EEAE8-76E3-4DCE-B261-D20C7D4104FD.jpeg All sanded and ready for polishing F2D46D87-FBF1-4AE1-8F00-012F762FF792.jpeg before

    New $40 bolts and $5 foot rubber isolator straps. I used some old scrap rubber for the back side of the tanks and glued it on last night. 616F48F5-49DB-435D-BC69-E3DFD40D60B7.jpeg

    Ok I’m done polishing on the truck for a while. I got to touch up some wheels for the trailer today and tomorrow and put 4 tires on it. I have to pick up a load tomorrow for Monday delivery (200 miles). Oil change on Sunday. 2C90E42F-938B-45DB-BB60-BB23DC8AB134.jpeg

    I appreciate the comments guys.

    Final “glam” shots for this truck cleaning. Of course what I started with is dirty by the time I got done. I still got the new rear low Ryder fenders to instal. Still going over the mounting in my head and need to order steel to make the brackets. 45869A7E-A297-4986-85F9-BC0D9EEA5EAF.png 075F615D-A2A6-40F8-8CE5-FCA3DEB66C6A.png 3EE4EF9E-282A-4F7B-9397-6E4F2717F3B8.jpeg
