If you have a failed fuel sender, this one works. It doesn't have the low fuel light capability but other than that, good to go. You do have to wire it in. Isspro, part number RA9521-ISS-LP, $114
Connect to red and black wires. Blue is for the low fuel light. Sender wires are non polarized so...
Probably easiest option is swapping the trailer lights out for 12/24 volt types, then using a wiring converter (though those that are straight through wiring still look to be around $150 and up).
I went all out and got this one.
LEDs absolutely care about the voltage. There are LED lights out there that have the circuitry to accept multiple voltages but they are in the minority.
Totally happy, truck is way more balanced now. You will have more roll as you decreased the spring constant, not that I notice it as I have a heavy truck with high cg so I don't drive it like a sports car, it lifts the inner tires too early.
I would absolutely do it again. Those coil springs are...
More weekend camping trips turning out great! This campsite I was thankful for the steel construction, broke off a few branches.
We came upon a 3 LMTV convoy on our was back home, got some very odd looks when passing them at 70mph, thanks Eco hubs.
Original heater panel was in bad shape, cracked. I also didn't get a new panel in my AC kit and they seem to be unobtainable on their own. 3D printed a new one with transparent letters so the LED backlight would still work - although it doesn't end up lighting it very well. Old fan switch was a...
Have been doing a lot of boring stuff lately, pulling stock heater for future AC install, lining floor with vibration damping (the good, pricey stuff from resonix). Got the floormatt material from the same supplier to the military (supposedly-it does match the floor matt of my MTV). Installed...
So this issue with the flatness keeps going around but it's usually missing the point. Typically the measurement people reference is the sandwich plate and it's only about 1/2" thick. You can push on it with your hand and remove all that gap. The more important measurement is it's thickness...
Negative of 2 6tl flooded lead acid - not enough CCA in -F temps to crank engine fast enough. 2 AGM would likely work just fine - or add a battery heater.
Got mine at Napa, the hose is standard 1/8 nylon "brake" line.
There is a decent chance the solenoid does not function if it's had water getting in it. Mine was completely seized up, check its function by supplying 24 volts to the pins you should see the plunger move.
You wouldn't believe how many people I've run into call the eductor an inductor. Common in fire service for pulling foam concentrate into the main hose stream.
