Picked up a few things at the yard today!

So let's start off with a story. As I was driving down the highway to get to the junk yard, out of nowhere a loud thud comes from my door, and my mirror gets slammed shut. Naturally, I just thought I hit a tire shred from a rig. So I pulled over to inspect for damage, my buddy pulls behind me, and I noticed that my freakin fender flare had ripped off! Next thing you know, a few hundred feet down the road, my poor flare got run over by a truck and shattered instantly. So naturally, I was pissed off more than anything. But then I got to the yard after taking off another loose flare, and looked for another. Couldn't find it. Then I needed (and still do) a filler neck. Couldn't find it. BUT! I did pick up an overhead console and autodimming mirror for the Dakota, and a sport trac white/silver gauge cluster, with a matching silver hvac unit! Paid $19.xx for the OHC and $38.xx for the cluster.




Now, if someone would be so kind as to tell me.... HOW IN THE HELL CAN I FIX THE MILEAGE TO MATCH MY TRUCK?? Lmao. Sorry, felt like saying it that way. Thanks guys

Dude...you got a 2wd cluster, not the 4wd version so when you turn on 4x4 you wont see the 4x4 engage indicators light up

 

Don't really bother me, all they are is an indicator. Idk if y'all can, but I can hear the motor click when it changes. So that's my notification.

 

The 4x4 will still light up on the switch though lol

 

There's no lights on my 4hi/lo switch... Or at least I don't think there is. Haha

 

pete the easier is to take both apart, and swap the needles, face and plasic cover on to your stock one

 

I like his idea ^^^. That way your truck wont have 224,620 miles lol

 

its the idiot way, that is what im doing the the one im modding

 

It's possible to do that? Haha. Might do that then since I don't feel like screwing with the battery...

 

hahah yeah its that easy
