Those 130/100's are DOT legal for single lamp motorbikes. When in a 2 headlight vehicle they MAY be legal - if your state allows auxillary lights (ie driving/spot lampsx2 and fog amps x2) to be run with 2 aux and 2 headlights on at the same time. The total lighting is less with a 260W high/200W...
Searched but did not find definitive answer. I read that the two gen lights are actually different bulbs. Presumably with different wattages? Resistance? What is the effect of using the same bulb in both, and what wattages are the G1 and G2 bulbs?
In order to fit instruments in the dash I have...
What did you do with the proportioning valve? And I like the shock mount repositioning idea -vs- longer shocks for exactly the reason you noted - clearance.
looked through the tm,s and searched - the pics show what I have, but there seems no way to assemble the latch on the bench seat to stop it from flipping forward - which I know is wrong.
no spring shows up in the tm parts pics, and if assembled as shown the plastic cover prevents access to the...
Where are the good shops for this in AZ, NV, CA or OR?
And does anyone have any experience with the international CB's (different frequency capabilities, many domestic ones can be modded to include the extra channels) - plan on using it in more places than just the US and wondering if a...
searched but couldn't find anyone who has written a thread on this - so.....
Has anyone mounted the Sidewinder or any other turbo on the drivers side of the 6.2?
Problems, details, pics?
suburban/blazer tanks
Won't work. The M1008 spare is under the bed - but even when removed there is not enough space to mount a blazer 31 gallon tank let alone a suburban 42 gallon one. I've tried. The blazer 25 might fit if it is beat on a bit at the back to make it fit.
If you remove the...
Difference betweeb gen1 and gen2 bulbs
Anyone have a ohmmeter that can test both bulbs and post the results? The tm's say they are different wattages, but wondering if there is enough of a difference electrically (vs brightness wise) to matter if they get replaced over time with the same...
Has anyone swapped in one of these from a 2001-2005 era GM/Chevy Duramax instead of the typical NV-4500/4500HD or NV-5600? I think it should be no harder than any other manual tranny swap as it should bolt right up - although a body lift or reworked floor pan would be in order
Saw this up in Seattle - one of only 1155 ever made. Thinking it would be great for hunting/camping on a 1009 and in CARC... The owner is selling the truck/chalet as a unit for $6.5k however not separate.
Wonder what the chalet alone would be on the open market? think I'll start keeping my...
Given that you are staying 6x6 - I'd reduce the tire size so chain are possible. Once tires hit ice or packed wet now - you are done without them. Speaking from many years on ice roads and trails in the arctic.
EDIT: or redo the rear walking beam and traction bar so they are wider spaced...
GM tach from 6 cylinder diesel c60 / c70 from 73-86 era.... more common is the 5000 rpm version from the 8 cylinder. You can also mod a standard tach (without the fuel gauge) by cutting the curved window shape in the bottom area of a standard GM tach of the same type and trimming a small fuel...
