Looks like that wire was a repair job. I will have 2 AC units, one for the cab and one for the box.

I thought about 24 VDC but it's simpler to keep it all 12 VDC. The original M1010 alternators were replaced by the previous owner to the standard CUCV configuration. Once I get the engine back from the machine shop, I will start the process of getting the alternator and AC compressor mounted to...

I thought about putting the generator where the original AC unit was. But getting to it for refueling and maintenance would be an issue. Decided to enlarge the original heater access door and install HD drawer slides so it can be slid out or removed to use it. The compartment will be vented and...

Getting the passenger side out was very difficult. Much harder than the driver side. I decided that it was not going back in....Eventually with a sawzall, cutting wheels, battery recharging, BFH, hydraulic jack, pry bar and a few four letter words, I got it removed! Every time I thought I had...

The heat and A/C for the back will be a roof mounted RV type unit. The back of the vehicle was gutted to make room for a new interior with beds, sink, shower etc. Things might be a bit tight, but we will make it work. I have a 12VDC to 120 VAC inverter to run it while we are traveling. At night...

There has been some progress with the build. I will get some pictures posted later along with details of the factory insulation. The factory insulation was just placed between the inner and outer aluminum. It is very easy to remove once you drill out 1,456,231.5 rivets holding all of the inner...

From the Hayden Web page: Should the cooler be installed before or after the radiator? Answer: We recommend installing the auxiliary cooler after the radiator to return the coolest fluid directly to the transmission. Installing the cooler before the radiator will still provide additional...

Please list an asking price for the lot.

Your Uni-Strut looks great! It's the adult version of the Erector sets we played with as kids.

This works, I have used them before. I drive by the Top Flight factory store on occasion and purchase them in the showroom/retail store area. Fuel Hose

Same place as the blower motor and the resistor: Heater Core

I used these: Heater Blower Motor Heater Blower Resistor

The 2 hose version will work for your needs. 1 for supply and the other for return. This is one that I use: 3 outlet sending unit I add a 2nd tank to the right side of the truck and use the 3rd outlet for transferring fuel from the right side to the left side tank. The return line remains...

I have 3 lines on my fuel tank sending unit. This is how they came from the factory on 2 of my trucks. One is the supply line to the IP 2nd is the return line from the engine 3rd is capped off and is not used.

I too have been caught up with this dilemma. Modify or keep stock? To solve this mental struggle, I got 2 trucks. One modified and the other as stock as possible.
