AK, I bought a Tekton 1/2" air hose reel through Amazon Warehouse. 72 bucks, and I had a 25 dollar gift card from taking a survey.... well, I got it.... and it looks like it's been through the war. I contacted Amazon, and they told me I could send it back, or they would give me 20 dollars if I thought I could still use it, albeit war ridden. I told them throw in another 10 bucks for my time, and I'd keep it. Soooo.... I got the thing for 17 dollars all said and done.
I think it's worth the effort of trying to bend it back to form now.... If not, it's a decent USA rubber hose for 17 bucks, LOL.
I'd really like to see a set of those in person, as I think they'd be a nice compliment to my black Harlightning headlights, and blend well with the DSG. I'm just not sure enough to pull the trigger. Of course, for <$20, I would. Nice score!
I will find out, lol. For the price, I can take a chance.
Was going to go up and check the Lightning today, but we got 3 inches of snow and they got 6 inches were it's at last night. It is a 93, SVT plated with #17 of 62 numbering. I do remember a pair of them coming thru service in 93ish. He said he bought his new here, so Im sure it's one of the 2 that I did the precheck warranty paperwork on. SO'd thru Worthington Ford in CA and shipped up to us. I'll find out Saturday if I am right or wrong.
The radio is in in a temporary state, at least. The transceiver unit is in the center console under the cup holders, and powered via a cigarette-lighter-style accessory port inside the console for now. Wires for the speaker and remote head run alongside the floor mat for now, and a mag mount dual-band antenna will do until I have time to install an NMO mount in the roof, and wire/mount things up properly.
In other news, I passed this on the way home this evening.
Oh, and I was in Pueblo yesterday, and stopped at a yard because they had a few Expeditions. Three gray consoles, all of them narrow. Oh, well.

Got the axle swapped in finally. U bolts were a tad longer than I expected but it's back together. Oh and somehow my parking cables are 6.25" TOO LONG don't know how they got off by that much.
