Dewey … a question on the bench to bucket swap. My ’02 60/40 has the shoulder belt in the seat backs. What would I do about those if I swapped that out for Expy buckets?

Has anyone found brackets to mount a light bar on the top of a 99 f150? Like the ones that go in the door jam?

This isn't a problem per se on these trucks, however I do see this question occasionally appear on the forum. It concerns the plug next to the OBD II connector. A good chunk know, but I'll put it here for the future. It is the plug for the trailer brake controller, and the kit is unusually included with every truck. It's the harness that plugs into it, plus a relay that is needed under hood. The relay goes in the "Trailer tow battery charge relay" slot, number 302.

Again, not a problem. Just a question I've seen in the past, so I'll put this here along with a few pictures.

Most if not all cars have a 100-150amp "mega" fuse that run inline with the alternator. If you jump start a vehicle backward or put a lot of amperage through the charging system, it will blow this fuse instead of destroying the vehicles electrical system... well, in theory, it will. At least thats what i've always been taught, never had to change one to find out.

As to where it is at, start at the alternator and follow it back to the firewall. They're usually screwed into it.
