The easiest way to drop the dash is to take out the drivers seat, remove kick panels and A piller covers, drop the steering column on to the floor, loosen the 2 pivot bolts, one on each end of the dash tucked up underneith. Undo the screws across the top and gently tilt away from the windshield. Have someone help you with that and then lift the dash off the pivot bolts and set it on the floor.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
