Post a picture of where you are right now.

I mean at first glance,

it's awful close in his defense ...
Maybe the second gen dash anyway. :beer:
2nd gen is what I was most familiar with, considering I got free and bought around 20 of them and stripped all but one 4Runner I ended up selling.

I didn’t laser eyeball fawk it over like stevebunchof#’s did tho.

Especially when they are stupid expensive. We had a guy call in this afternoon looking for instrument cluster bulbs for a '05 Ranger. $30 a piece. And there are 11 of them. $300 worth of bulbs. "Built furd tuff." :laughing:
eBay to the rescue for that.
 
Phawkin lame...
Betcha I'm in that boat...
That's a grease gun tube cap for reference...

if the bulb holders aren't the sort that take wedge-base bulbs you can straighten out the wires on the wedge base bulbs and twist them around the contacts on the plastic dingus after ripping out the burnt out bulbs
 
Hopefully
I'm hoping for the availability of the wedge based peanut lamps on da shelf.
These are like 1/8" in dia...
Ford designed them as anti tamper socket holders so you couldn't replace them, and fleabay wants a hunnert for the display.:shaking::flipoff:
I'm going to yard me some dashes at the wreckers if that is the only answer...
 
It isn’t just cordless tools, it’s most everything out there is made in cHiNa. Today, we suck as an industrial nation. I can’t put all the blame on you tho ,heavy load I know) but epa has killed it for us too
Sub greed and corruption and you just about had it.
All at the expense of the end user / buyer.

Why sell you stuff that lasts, when we can keep selling it to you.
Why cure you, lets continue treating you.
Why teach you, costs too much.
And on, and on, and on, and on...
 
Well, now you gone and made it too purdy to use. Now to have to buy a beater skidder to actually use.
I already told my wife that. A 1960’s 200 would be a good addition, less than half the weight of the 240E… 3/4 ton towable. Would make transitioning to my other wood lot for selective cutting a simple process. A 200 would really be too small for serious cutting over there. There’s about 250,000 bdft of maple and oak and another 150,000 bdft of old growth white pine that I need to get to at some point.


Last bit of paint goes on today. Hopefully have it back together this week.

.they not just pc194/pc168? My 01 is just those. $30/ea sounds like dealer tax

Ford sets the pricing, I just sell the stuff. Or attempt to. :flipoff2:


It gets better. I've mentioned the $2,200 new Ranger taillight before, but yesterday we had a guy come in looking to order a headlamp for a new SuperDoody. King Ranch, LED, all that BS. Well over $1k. He had a hole in it, it got water in it and then it stopped working all together. He picked up his new, platinum plated, LED headlamp this morning. He came back a few hours later wanting to know if the headlamp module was supposed to come with it. Nope, it's a separate part. Water got in his headlamp and, for whatever reason, Ford seals the module to a hole in the bottom of the headlamp assembly. So, water gets in, goes to the lowest point in the headlamp and flows directly into the module. Zap, poof, no worky. Brilliant. So now I have a $600 module coming in for him and his new headlamp tomorrow morning. :shaking:
