I have been making a custom dashboard for my 87 and kinda stuck. Does anybody know of any websites that offer tips and how to's for custom dashboards?

It all depends on what type of material you are planning to use...
If you are going with fiberglass there is a great forum that might give you some ideas...

i think Seabronco posted some links to custom dashboards in my thread on re-wiring the 84. I'll see if I can find it and post a link, JSM84

speking of dash boards is there any diffrence between 84 and 86. i customed my old dashboard and i dont want to get rid of it. can i swap them?
80-86 are the same style, then changed in 87 thru 91. I haven't found any vendor with a bolt-in or direct-fit custom insert for pre-97 Ford trucks. I think the curve of the 80-86 dash gauge bezel makes it so hard to modify that if you have something done it's worth hanging on to!!! JSM84

Yeah, its kinda hard not notice it when I have the exact one execpt for the extended magazine part. Mine has the a4 collapsible stock like yours and the full electronic trigger. I usually used mine at jungle island in Corona. After I hurt my back I have not been back.

I have an A5 with the electric grip too. I am just getting back into paintball and have been hitting up SC village about once a week.

don't know if you can see it well but i have upgraded the e trigger on mine.. more on accident but i love what happened.. once upon a time that e- trigger broke.. sad i know . well i work in an eletrical shop so i took it in and replaced some components on the board.. in a weird twist of fate.. i can shoot with the trigger off or on. and when the battery dies in the game it just reverts back to semi auto. so in that case i added a double trigger on that e-trigger to make me feel more like a speedball player again.
just as a note. we have some larger ford trucks(F600 i think) at work(bucket trucks and dump trucks). they are mid to late 90s models but the dash board is the same as the 80-86 trucks. So if you ever come across a large truck junkyard its worth a look.
