Earlier this summer, I started the process up upgrading my 36" 16ga shear for a 52" 16ga on. The 36" Pexto sold a while back, but it took a while before I found a 52" one in a price range I wanted to pay. It has the front/rear arms/supports and backstop, but I will likely remove all of them and put them in storage for now.





It was in New Lenox, and there happened to be a guy selling a black notchie clip and taillights about 25 miles away, so it became a multi-part trip.











This will allow me to replace the last panel remaining with the yellow stripe. Only took 13 years...

Went ahead and removed the hood, lights, and front facia for better access to the various projects for the front end.


One of those projects is to clean up the power distribution at the battery. With it under the front headlight that area is getting busy with the following items having battery conenctions (Starter, Haltech Rebel LS, 5 channel Amp, Radiator Fan. These will allow me to limit the wires under the healight and shorten many of the cable runs. I also plan to install two jump lugs in a more accessable location.
