    Funny thing about the HF tow lights. Mine were wired wrong. The bright filament was wired to the lights, while the dim was to the turn signals. Also, the ground wire is a bit too thin, you will get slight blinking in all lights if the lights are on, with a turn signal on. But for about 10...

    M109a3 wires

    That wire at the circuit breaker is you 24volts feeding the box. I have that running the 24volt lights, a 24volt to 12volt dc converter to run a cooler or phone charger, and a 900watt 24vdc inverter powering a fridge and a laptop in the back of mine. Get a multimeter, check for 24volt coming...

    Rear mounted spare tire anyone??

    I understand it wouldn,t be vertical, thats why I said up towards the door. Would be out of the way for offroad clearance, just not sure how far it would stick out, might have to paint the feet of the towbar red. In the down position it might be out of the way for the ladder, might not.

    Rear mounted spare tire anyone??

    What about bolting the spare to a tow bar, tow bar attached to the hitch, and the feet braced with pulley cable up toward the rear door then locked into place with safety chain? If you want to tow a trailer, well then the tow bar and spare can go in it.

    cargo cover use question

    Look up a boat cover business in you area. I know around here, a complete custom cover for a pontoon boat runs around 500 - 600 bucks. Ask starlight for some photos of his bow setup. Or if you like starlights setup, maybe he could have his guy build another like it.

    That is a slick trailer. How wide is that? Looks practical for towing behind a pickup.

    How much $$

    It would depend on how bad you wanted to sell it. I would say with the dump mod, and nice top, $1500 is not out of line to ask for it. Now if you are saying for the right price, you would sell, I say 1800 would be the top, and probably never get that much for it. All depends on how bad the...

    M35a2 In a game!

    Just found a deuce in another game. The new Mafia II. During the second chapter cut scene I saw a bunch driving down the road. Once I was able to freely roam around the city, I crashed into one. I got out and jacked it. Dang thing is so slow, you never get hassled for speeding. GAI 353...

    M35A2/A3 heat, ac, off road lights, winch, and cig plug outlets?

    3 ways, if you include what I previously posted. In my M109a3, I have two 30amp converters in the cab, and one in the box. So far I am only powering 2 cigarette plugs up front, and one in the box. Cheap Chinese converters on ebay can be had for 10 bucks or less. I have had no issues charging...

    M35A2 un-insurable

    Strange, recently I was able to get a Progressive commercial policy on my m109a3. My independent agent called it into Progressive HQ and explained to them what it was, with a picture of the truck.

    Front axle problem

    If you busted a U-Joint, you should be able to drive just fine with the hubs unlocked. You can easily see if the u-joint is busted. Makes all kinds of noises and popping when it goes, and if you are unlucky, the ears on the shafts get broken.
