Looks good Ryan. What about the space under the companion seat for tool storage? I keep extra storage boxes on the truck bed for heavy tools, air hoses, tire chains etc.

Here is an image of Ace of Spades showing extra lights under the bumper.

Here is the IR light mounted. (From my file of pictures of unknown origin) Note the headlight mounted in the low position, which is the "no winch" configuration.

Armada, that's an IR light. It may be installed without a bracket. Very heavy duty. A note on the light guards above (Kenny's post); the kit shows painted parts but no paint piercing washers for grounding. When you install these, make sure that you have a good ground path since some lights are...

Always pictures, I know. Problem is that my brake pressure gauge is installed thru the tunnel cover and would have to be taken off first and the line bled when installed again. Not very smart, but but but that's the way it is. Image of brake line pressure gauge below.

The switch is mounted to the cross member. It has a lot of overtravel (typical for a limit switch) and there is a loosely mounted copper tubing extension on the rod. A lot of movement can be tolerated. One day when the cover is off, I'll take a few pictures.

The back-up lights and alarm are turned on by a microswitch mounted in the path of the rod shown in the image below. The rod extends out an inch or so when the transmission is placed in reverse. There is also a paddle switch (shown in the second image below the dual tank control panel), which...

Have been using two of the 12 volt, 4-1/2" ones for back-up lights. Removed them when the bed was changed and have to put them back along with a few other odds and ends. Used them in series for the 24 volt system.

Well, dang! I must have gotten the last one. :-) Did see one on ebay last year and it went for over $100, could't believe it. Another possibility is Howard's in KY. Perhaps Hookin1 can check for you.

Call Clark Truck parts in West Virginia, 304 755-8811. I paid $25/ea 7-8 years ago, price may have gone up.

This is where my flood lights are mounted. They are excellent for working at night, light up the whole area without blinding.

Here is the wrecker warning light fixture. I got it from a 5-ton parts truck, just haven't decided how to use it yet... :?

Not exactly my favorite truck, but here is the FMTV 2-1/2 ton M1078A1 with holes in the bumper. I don't agree with lights and stuff in the bumper, but if you can't make it better, make it differently. :twisted: Note the wire rope steps on the sides.

Ryan, use mil spec relay(s) to do the actual switching. A typical 25 amp Leach relay can handle the 10 amps of lamp load if you use 24 volt bulbs in your application. You will need a 50 amp relay if you use 12 volts. They are often up for sale/auction on ebay. Keywords: Leach aircraft relay. Any...
