Update,still no brass/copper radiator from autozone originally ordered 12/09/14,supposed to be one here on Saturday!

And you still have 2 more ports.Maybe 1 for electric fan sending unit and maybe a sacrificial anode.

You are right,I forgot to add I did upgrade the headlight harness.

For headlights go with Hella 003427291,they take HB2,H4 or 9003 bulbs,so lots of choices.Aux. lights I like KC Daylighters.Kinda old school but fairly cheap.Also they take a H3 bulb available in 24v or 12v,50-130w.The backup lights,foglights and offroad lights all take H3 bulbs.

I was just kidding around Rich,I wish I was spoiled also.

Can you put same load of wood in the new truck and do a side by side test for us?

I ran into same problem with a DB elect. starter,I was so desperate to get it running I actually enlarged one hole to get to fit.Its my only vehicle right now.I have picked up a 24v dd starter and a new 12v starter just in case.

For back up lights look at kc hilites # kcc-517,I have a set but haven't installed yet,my plan is to cut out an opening in rear bumper to install.I have a nos bumper I picked up at Findlay show for a whopping $20.Im gonna put them where blk outs were,enlarge cutout and weld a mounting tab in...

From a fairly new guy to a new guy if you search 1009 battery cables all your ?s will be answered.These are not your normal 12v truck,I have learned a lot on here just by using the search method. And I have learned a lot by making mistakes.

Nice looking truck/rig.My bet its a posi unit,I have a gov lock in my 1009 and a Detroit locker in my ford 9 inch in my 79 Malibu,they both spin in forward,the 1009 in grass, mud and snow and the Malibu everywhere! Remember these trucks are old,who knows what previous owners have modified!Are...
