Tires-BEWARE of Rgdl

I have quite a few forestry trucks, and the wiring is nasty. Some of them were partially converted to operate on 12v bulbs, (spaghetti wiring), multiple switches, etc... the best thing that I have found is to remove ALL non mil wiring and switches- and determine from there whether to repair or...
