That trip sounded like my first trip with 'Storm except change the light switch to the expen$$$ive fuel pump. Check out my conversion on the horn/light circuit I posted this spring and that should help you with that problem. Remember more pics, pics, pics!

I'd play it safe and get a turbo from Saturn Surplus. Unless you have experience in packing a turbo and sealing it properly your better off buying one.
Guys;
I use the "Truck Club" and wrap the chain around the club for a little extra deterrent. Plus I take the starter button with me and shut off power to the batteries too.

R 4X4 has it right. Get a 12 ton jack for these Deuces. Remember, they're overengineered. So you need a jack that is more powerful than the truck is heavy to be sure you can change a tire or whatever. I too have a BII kit in the truck but prefer my 12 ton jack in normal use.

I've delt with Oshkosh before. Nice people to do business with. I got a 5-ton from them for a coal mining operation out of Kentucky. I delivered it personally the same day I got it from Oshkosh. That was a long 14 hour trip. I wish I had another 5-ton just like it. She had a Mack motor and...

I'm headed over there next week. Shall I try a sneak peak for you? It's remanned, so it looks good from my monitor. However, y'know nothing beats a personal inspection.
DS;
Is R 4X4 refering to a bulb or year born when he's talking about 1864? Check that birth certificate <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_lol.gif" alt="LOL">!!!!!!!!
