Mine were 30 year old wood with metal corners, I wouldn't trust it past about 150 lbs, plus there was some front to back play that would lend itself to instability, if you're looking to do what you want, I would recommend all metal bows, shouldn't be too hard to have made, I'll take a picture...
Wise or not, some one obviously put a 6bt in a m1009 from the pics here...

Re: Anyone make alternate uses of this bracket?????
I have seen good results from using epoxy to secure a strong (45 lbs) rare earth magnet to the underside of the dash. Get in the truck, put gun under dash, stays put just fine. Yeah I get a couple of scuff marks on the slide, but hey, it's a...
I bought one of the cheapo ones from ebay about a year ago and it has worked great. And I am abusing the crap out of it because my check valve on top of my IP is leaking so every morning I have to crank it for 20 or 30 sec to get fuel back up to the pump. I was initially apprehensive but it has...

My drive to work is a long gentle downhill slope and the speed limit is 35 which is right at my shift point between 2nd and 3rd. The engine has more than enough power to plug along in 3rd for the entire trip but i am having a hard time keeping iit...
I don't have pics, but I just did Dogheads relay mod just as instructed, including the diode. And then tool the wire going from the relay to the starter and put in a on/off switch that I mounted directly under the steering column. It's easy to get to in a hurry but when sitting in the drivers...
I did this relay mod and have not had any problems until my starter went out and melted my battery cable as well. Mine happened because the bad starter was drawing almost 500 amps. I wired in a simple switch in the line that goes from the relay to the starter just in case the relay fuses shut, I...
Resurrected this thread because I just found a STE/ICE unit on ebay for $50 buy it now price. if I had the money I would jump on it like a trampoline, but I'm broke so I thought maybe someone else would want it.
