picked up a nice set of used 40/20/40 seats out of a std cab f150 at the man mall . $120 and 1 hour latter they were mine . wife cleaned them for me while i was at work going to be putting them in tomorrow.
Dodge+Ford = always ready
3 ****ing bad starters out of the box for my 75, knecks is giving me a 50% discount on a higher end starter at the price i payed for the 3 i just got. also doing rear brakes on the 75 Sunday afternoon.

I'm starting to think about replacing my engine. I'm not very good with engines yet, but what I have now is pretty screwed over.
Salvage Yard Pro
That's ridiculous on the price. $120? Seats here go for $29 for buckets and I got my bench with arm rest and cup holders for $10. Still cheaper than new at that price, so good find I guess.
Replaced alternator
replaced a bad alternator with a rebuilt 132 amp unit. Hod to use the outside 2 mounting holes in order for it to fit. Belt just barely slipped on, but all is well now. Battery also has a bad cell and wont hold a charge, swapped in a spare Optima and was back on the road again.

yeah I wish i could have gotten them cheaper. But living in central IL sucks . anyway got them in today very comfortable but the driverside lumbar support bladder is poped . hopefully i can fix it or find a replacement. Any one here ever repaired one before?

I guess our salvage yards are much cheaper around here. I'd pay that for a set at the yard that strips the truck themselves and has the seats stored and sold inside. Our U-Pull It's are so much cheaper though.
