What have you done to your CUCV today/lately?
Nice. I've been wanting to get rid of this pansy horn for a long while. For now I just try to avoid using it. Ha ha. Post a vid!

Interesting. Yeah I've never had any problems with them in so cal. I've had optima in my M1028 for a about a year and a half now.

Finished the dual Optima battery mount and cleaned up all the battery related wiring. Also fixed another exhaust rattle, and re-tightened trans crossmember bolts for 5th or so time, and used lock tight this time to keep em tight.
Hey Downrangecop, it's nice to see another CUCV in socal! I went with the 4L80E due to it's strength over the 700r4, no TV cable to have to adjust, and with an aftermarket computer controller you can change all the shift parameters and such with a computer to tune to your liking and driving...

Here's how it came out. The new lights are much brighter than stock! I used a single pole double throw switch (aka 3 way switch). The three positions are manual on, off, or on in reverse. In the off position the lights do not come on when the truck is placed in reverse. Here is a rough schematic...
Installed some Rigid Industries lights on the rear. I'm gonna wire em up tomorrow so that they come on in reverse and on a switch so I can turn them on whenever.
Sounds fun! I just washed my truck pretty well and without all the mud stains I can again see the scratches from all brush I have shoved it through. Ha ha. With that good camo paint job just remember where you parked it!
