    Gauge lights

    I use them and they are much brighter but as noted with these the dimming feature of the light switch will not function. I find the bulbs only last like a year but I picked them up in bulk so it doesn't matter. I really like the light they put out. Do a search for EverBrightt 20-Pack DC 24V...

    WAIT light - Only quick flash - Where to start?

    I had to replace my glow plugs and after I installed the new ones I started the truck for maybe a minute and cooked my brand new glow plugs. Turns out the relay in the box had jammed on so it was sending 24v to the glow plugs when the ING switch was in run. I cursed a lot that day. Mark

    WAIT light - Only quick flash - Where to start?

I would start with an ohms test of the plugs. You do not have to remove them to test them. Welcome to the world of...

    Any issues with running old surplus 37’s

    It would be interesting at highway speeds for a 37" tire experiencing a front wheel blowout without a run flat to drop what 10 plus inches . That will wake you up quick. Mark

    Any issues with running old surplus 37’s

    Is there a greater risk of a blow out? I would say sure but to what degree who knows but I don't lose any sleep over it. Just my .02 cents. Mark

    Any issues with running old surplus 37’s

    My MTRs are now 10 or 11 years old now as I've had my truck for over 6 years now and have zero issues. No checking at all. The put a heavy load of UV protection on military tires because of the crazy environments they are subjected to. I would like to have fresher tires but oh well. I run mine...

    Question about rim nuts (not lug nuts) on 24 bolt even-spaced rims

    It states 450lbs but I can say it has done every job I've asked it to do so far. It is on the large size so it physically won't fit everywhere. Mark
