Delco-Remy 33si 24V. 100A w/ Factory Cummins bracket. Bottom brace was fashioned from a John Deere tractor part. Install was a brease and battery’s have never been happier. 74M35A2 was seller and very helpful.

ANCO still makes them. Installed a new set a few weeks ago. Comes with new hardware. Can’t find the part number now.

That’s why Truck-Lite offers them with heating elements in the Front. They popped up briefly in the 5x7’s, then disappeared. I think the only offering right now is the 7” round light. Haven't looked since I installed mine.

Only two? 4 minimum in town. 6 off-road. (Or in my case flying cross country). Better to have and not need....than need and not have.

Towing a M105 with an Xterra at 70?! You love playing with Fire that’s for sure.

I am not. Still have old radiator and already burned the box it came in.

You absolutely get what you pay for in tires. I will have a look at the Goodyear’s you mentioned. Michelin doesn’t make the tire I want in the size I want so I’m shopping now.

I am still running the stock GP card. Have 3 brand new spares. New card does not change wait time. I have installed new acdelco GP temp sensor. Recently installed new trombetta GP solenoid. Recent set of ACDELCO AC60G’s glow plugs. All stock system If you count it out, 17 seconds is a...

I’m thinking about putting a set on my M1008A1. It doesn’t see the speed and long trips that my vehicles with Michelin’s do. Post a pic when you get them mounted.

17 seconds seems like a very long wait light time. When really cold outside, mine is on for about 10 seconds. Starts right up. Warmer it is, the shorter the wait time. -6* was coldest start to date and wait light wasn’t on for more than 10 seconds. Again, cranked right up. Still...

Rolling over something is completely different that hitting something with a sidewall. I have had the BFGs A/T and was a great tire. Been running Michelin’s now for years. Never an issue Hit a piece of steel on sidewall (driving slower than walking pace) that I could have rolled over...

Croft Trailer has adapters that fit inside the ring. For either a 2” or 2 1/2” ball That would give you some extra length. If you need ring as is and just longer, then the above info is worthless. I have seen longer ones on eBay. Do not know if they would fit the surge assembly or not...

Like mentioned, I would try the car wash first. Access to sandblaster is difficult for most of us. Pressure wash should work. Seems like the longer the paint has been on tire, the harder it is to remove. At least it was painted on tire instead of trailer. Getting it off of CARC is painful.

The LEDs are getting much much better. Agree about the flashlights. My older LED Surefire flashlights aren’t as bright as my newer ones.

My last post wasn’t meant for you specifically. Just general info for anyone who is thinking about a set. Truck-Lites are made in USA. Not sure about Grote. All others, as you mentioned, made in China.

LEDs are not known for throwing a lot of light downrange. Very bright in close but drops off rapidly the further out it goes. (Like any light, but more pronounced with LEDs). Definitely getting better but not there yet. The current aviation LED searchlights are crazy expensive and suck to put...

If it is a GP controller card, new improved ones are available from SS member AntennaClimber. Always a good idea to have a spare card handy.

Common problem for those jacks. Fixable, but a PITA. A lot of guys ditch that jack and go with a side mount M1101/2 style 5k jack. Still grease-able and a lot stronger internals. I don’t own your style jack and the above info is what I’ve read in older threads. My trailers have the...

It’s part of the Dismal Tide. It will only get worse.

If he doesn’t I would be surprised. That guy seems to have multiples of every part made for CUCVs Definitely has helped me a lot!
