OK, for starters, at some point the fuse box was on fire because there is evidence that a few different fuses burned and melted my block(another excuse for me to hit the scrap yard so I'm good with that) my truck has, I believe, a Grant steering wheel but the spring is messed up or something because if I put the horn fuse in its full time horn(womp womp) so this must be fixed, I never use my horn but I like right, proper, correct and functionality.
also, when I turn on my headlights, they are on low beam but my hi-beam indicator is on and switching does nothing, I'm running low beam while the truck says hi beam while my hi beams are a no go, should I just do what I normally do and pull out my wiring gear and just make my own harness and hook It back to the switch? or can one of the gurus throw their .2?(also I haven't checked the fuses again due to Sunday's fuse adventure of first time looking at me fuses, 5 were blown and there 3 independent fuse holders made from spades that go to....eh I don't know but I replaced the blown ones anyway. I'm sure more fuses blew since Sunday but again I say this trucks previous owner had no self worth, he could have at least googled some ish and made an attempt to do something half ass right.
Again, Ill try to take some pics of things though out today to post tonight.
On a side note, I'd like to install a tachometer, just a simple tach I can mount as stock as possible(ASAP lol) or did these trucks ever come with a full gauge cluster with less "dumby lights" that maybe had tach, oil pressure, voltage?
