It was not easy finding them. They are made by a company called coyote international but they only sell wholesale. They referred me to a company called hoseline. They deal in emergency vehicle a/c's. If you look up coyote internationals website they have an online catalouge which corresponds...
I am using an MTVR kit for my truck. All I have done is retrofitted it in order to fit mine. What I plan on doing to the condensor is either putting an electric fan behind it or tapping into the air solenoid that controls the fan. I got the idea of mounting it on the hood by a member on here who...
I thought it turned out pretty cool. The theme they were going for was "A traditional 4th of July cookout" you cant tell from these pics but we put a porch swing on the back of the truck under the tail gate and had a couple people sit on it in the parade. Then in the back of the truck we had a...
I had to go get my truck from the shop in order to use it in a parade on the 3rd so while I had it I was able to take a few shots of the new wiring. The guys at the shop said they have about another 1-2 hours of work on it until its done. All the hoses installed and charged just waiting to...
On the 3rd there was an electric light parade here locally and the local 4-h club wanted to use my truck to decorate. There was probably a couple thousand lights and it was BRIGHT! About halfway through the parade it started POURING rain but that was the most rain we got here his whole year...
I had a problem on my truck that it would sometimes make a huge clunking noise and then stop. I traced it to the drive shaft parking brake. I took it apart and there were broken springs that were loose and they would rub and jam up. Replacing them fixed the problem and it hasnt done it since.
Well yesterday I went to go check up on the progress on my trucks a/c wiring and refigerant charge. I was surprised that the wiring was about 90% done and they had just charged it. While I was over at their shop they used a jumper wire to engage the compressor clutch and it worked! The lines got...
Well yesterday I got all the a/c hoses made for my a/c and they were all the correct length so I installed them. Then today I took the truck down to a good friend of mine that owns a repair shop and he is going to flush the system, and charge it. He is also going to get the entire system wired...
I dont know where to get a kit from. Maybe fab one up yourself? If the truck had ABS then it would have a light near the guages that is yellow/orange color that should have ABS printed right above the light.
On the passenger side of the truck in the cab there should be a cable/handle sticking out with a plate beside it saying it has a deep water fording kit. All the handle does it close off breather tubes to the engine, powersteering pump and I think the transmission. Mine has it but it is an a1 and...
Same here!! It says video is being processed. Maybe youtube has to check all videos to make sure they are ok before letting anyone else see them. Who knows? I would love a truck like that!! Good going!
Yesterday I recieved the bracket from artisan and it was just as described. I got the hardware today and I put it on. The only thing I had to change was the length of the return line for the power steering. I was going to take pictures but it was dark when I finished. Even revving it up to 2000...
Sorry didn't take pictures of it apart. If you want I could take pictures of it back together but it wouldn't look any different from your guys trucks. But I will say trying to lift that driveshaft up by myself while bolting it in was difficult. That thing is HEAVY! At some point I will pressure...
I know the maxi's are the main parking brake its just the springs in the parking brake were dragging and clunking and that was my problem.
Today I finally finished putting everything back together. Put the new seal in and new springs and torqued down the new bolt. I took it for a test drive and...
