I found out while testing my transmission issues that you can unplug the glowplug controller. That is what the TM recommends when doing diagnostics so you are not cycling the glow plugs and draining power.

It shouldn't but mine did. It had enough that I could wring a sizable amount out of the foam. So I replaced it with a new controller from Black Dog.

Yeah they removed mine but it wasn't as beat up as yours. Mine looks like it was unbolted instead of just ripped out. Removing the whole valve controller is silly as far as I'm concerned since I can just buy the parts and put it all back.

I recently replaced my transmission controller and have one of those that I am not using. Came out of my 04 M1123. I am unsure of the condition since my box had some water in it.

I am not sure about 2010 but I do know that they made 6.5 NAs in 2004. My truck is a 2004 M1123 with the 6.5 NA. I am pretty sure they still had NAs in 2010 but can't say for sure.

For clarification what is the max RPM for these engines? I've been keeping mine under 3000 because I wasn't sure what the redline was.

Have you tried switching the side bars sides? I have heard people that have problems with things lining up say that the side rails are specific to one side. So if they are on the wrong side things do not line up.

How much did all that cost if you don't mind sharing?

When removing the tires is there a specific lug nut that we can use? I worked on removing one of my tires and it was a fight all the way to get the lug nuts out. I am used to changing tires on other vehicles where the lug nuts can, once loosened, be removed by hand. Is this normal or are the lug...

I know black dog customs has a battery charger that would work for this purpose and even has the slave receptacle connector. They make good stuff. https://blackdogcustoms.com/product/24v-battery-charger/

I found out with mine that the marker lights are already LED markers with no bulb after I ordered these lights. So keep that in mind.

So these particular ones actually work? The page doesn't list them as working for #623 bulbs.

No that is one I found through a referral from a Facebook group. Mike isn't comfortable with this approach because he has had issues with similar types of carriers. So I am taking the risks in my hands but I'll let you know how it ends up. It should be picked up today and delivered next week.

No worries, I just scheduled mine for pickup. Not too bad price wise either, $1,500 from Georgia to here.

Let me know if you can get an estimate on completion time for yours. I've been waiting for mine since December so I am not sure how long I want to wait knowing mine is ready.

That's possible, mine came out of Albany and is close by in Madison at Black Dog. Mike is checking with the broker he usually uses to get options.

I had them do a safety and geared hub check. Also had the injection pump replaced since the old one was going bad. It is nice to have a little peace of mind that major issues are identified. Granted there are some simpler projects that I'll tackle when it gets here. I just got off the phone with...

Congrats, I'm also in SoCal. I didn't seem to have the issues you had but mine still took almost 8 months to clear EUC approval. At the moment mine is in the good hands of Black Dog Customs and should hopefully be finished soon so mine can make the trek west.

What are people's experience for extending the life of these soft tops? Is there a sealant that would help with this problem while also allowing the top to last longer? This is especially pertinent since Breton is not selling to consumers any more.
