[QUOTE="TexasA&M, post: 554737, member: 7269"] Saturday update... I finished cleaning up some of the wiring yesterday and also installed the on board air quick connect. Which is mounted right behind the bumper. I need to find some kind of cover for it to keep it as clean as possible. [ATTACH=full]102387[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102388[/ATTACH] Here is the gauge that I have in the cab to keep an eye on things - [ATTACH=full]102389[/ATTACH] The black needle is tank pressure, and the orange is the driver's side bag, which should be pretty close to the same as the passenger side bag. Next, I did the harpoon mod. It was pretty easy with the bed off; I actually bought the Ford tool to remove the large nut on the tank off eBay for $12. Worth every penny. I went and filled up after that to make sure that there were no leaks. Filled it up almost to the top (pump stopped at $99), but it was full enough to slosh around and check for leaks and none were found. Then I got to work installing the B&W. I just installed everything hand tight because I needed it to be able to move slightly to line up with the hole that I cut in the bed. [ATTACH=full]102390[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102391[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102392[/ATTACH] After tidying up a bit more, and cutting the hole in the bed, it was time to put the bed back on. [ATTACH=full]102393[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102394[/ATTACH] I got the bed tightened down and the lights hooked back up, and then it got dark (and cold!!). I'm hoping tomorrow to get the hitch torqued down and then the rear suspension dialed in (it needs to be lowered a bit). Then I can finally do some road testing and see how it rides. If all goes well, I'll have enough time to install the track bar and alignment cams back in as well, and then I'll be all done! [/QUOTE]
