Project 7.3
#43
I'm back with my truck project, about a week before my surgery on my other knee I ordered the rear bumper for my truck. Once I received it I unpackaged it (with a neighbors help) to make sure all pieces parts were all in order as bumper was going to be sitting for a while as rehab starting. Finally got around on Aug 9 to install since weather temps cooled off for install. I was unable to kneel down on my knees but this was a good lay down task after another neighbor dropped by to help me get the bumper mounted. Since this was at the back end of the truck I addressed a long time issue purchasing a new spare tire. The old one was as old as my truck and was in maypop statis for last 15yrs. When I bought the truck it was 2yrs old at the time. Previous owner had a spaghetti of a mess with wires at the back which I did contribute to the mess a little. All that wiring is now straightened out. The wire bundle for trailer connection was a bit too long which I cut about 10" of it off leaving enough for possible future repair and installed a new trailer receptacle.

Bumper came with 2 sets of different 

size LED lights. The inboard lights on 
each side of license plate are connected 
to the backup lights while the bumper 
end lights is on an independent switch in cab.

What was cool with purchase of bumper,

it also came with license plate lights. The 

in board portion of the light shell was a

LED white light directed onto plates. The

back of the shell has 3 small red strip

lights

The long red strip light was

an add on about 4yrs ago. These
are set up to work with run, brake, &
turn signals.
