I am trying to get the truck pictured in my avatar ready for the road. Part of the state inspection stuff includes clearance lights and tag lights.I hate to cob the truck up with these trashy looking lights but I must attempt to follow the law even if i don't agree with it.
The other thing that I need to add is the missing "goat ear" mud flap brackets. I would prefer to have the correct brackets but if I can't find the right ones I can cut them from steel plate if someone would be kind enough to get me some measurements of the "goat ear" shaped piece that the square mud flap support rod bolts to. The "goat ear" looks to be about 6-8 inches long with 3 holes at the front where it bolts to the frame. See the GL picture of the brackets on a couple of recently sold trucks. They are about 3/8" or 1/2" thick. If I have to make them i might as well do it right, so if anyone would kindly take a tape measure out and get some sizes I can make some chips. Even better yet, anyone have a couple of these brackets on a parts truck?
I can always get civvy mud flaps and the square bars that hold them and paint them with 383. Please help me get this M818 on the road.
Thanks,
Dave
