Installed a rear-view camera tailgate handle from a 2011-newer Super Duty to go along with my Sony XAV-64BT head unit that I put in last week. But now I'm chasing an electrical problem with the camera, I think there may be a problem in the splice into the reverse light wire. Have power at the light, at the splice, but no power at the reverse trigger wire, and possibly not any power at the camera. But I guess it'll have to wait until I get back from my trip over the mountain, Sister's birthday tomorrow and I'm taking her to a Rockies game.

Fired it up and drove on in to work... Really liking the QuickLift Loaded / RS9000XL over the factory shocks / Autospring level... Still need an alignment and new tires though.

Thanks, I did take the stock housings and split them open after putting them in the over to soften the glue. Once apart I scuffed the chrome and painted with the plastic paint and resealed with black silicone.

Took it to a mechanic to get cylinder six of eight fixed. It was misfiring and had water in there. One new spark plug and one new coil pack. 65 for parts 35 for labor and 20 for check engine light removal. Only reason I paid that? Was because I wasn't sure it if I had regular spark plugs or the ones that end up breaking if not removed right.
