just stumbled across this thread. i have a 5/8” frame that was the odd one in a truck i bought. What is in the pics is what’s i have. i haven’t checked costs on this but If anyone is interested let me know.

Follow up post from yesterday: After reading papakb’s post about 29A i went right back to the master switch and changed a couple things; most importantly where -24v to the converter was going to. Once i made that change i was good to go. thx for the help!!

Yes, battery negative on the switch is what i'm currently using. Thanks for the drawing! Since i'm new to the wiring layout could you steer me to the location for 27A? Your assistance is greatly appreciated, Steve

Hey guys, working on a 24/12v conversion for some accessories and I'd like to have this circuit keyed to my ignition switch. I have a simple 24/12v converter wired to a keyed ignition switch. Converter is wired to the switch ground and acc legs. Switch off - 0v, Switch on - 24v No problem there...

I’ve recently acquired a USMC 1985 M998 Slantback with the following on the hood and tailgate: 538945. Was wondering if anyone here could steer me in the right direction to help identify the background of this truck.

I should be receiving mine later today and will post pics of the install process, hopefully starting this weekend.

Thinking of the Black Rhino Armory wheel but that'll be a little ways down the road https://www.blackrhinowheels.com/off-road-wheels-rims-armory.php

i started w/acetone but will try carb cleaner this weekend. thx for the tip!!

I too purchased the 700r4 kit from Mike @ Dirty Boyz. Had a buddy install in my 91 6.5 GEP. Install was super smooth!! Only hitch is tire balance at higher speeds. Any thoughts on balancing 12 bolt wheel?

i’ll post some here. when i built the frame i wasn’t planning on mounting it in a MT-1029 but that thought changed as i’m trying to replicate something that looks like its supposed to be there. That being said my frame is off by 1/4” so i’ll be putting another one together. traveling for work...

on those Black Rhino's, what bolt pattern, offset, etc?? i just started looking at them and getting info hasn't been easy, thx

Nice looking truck!!! Jealous on the radio....I'm fabricating one based on the 524 you have but with some modern details

in re-reading the thread i didn't see any reference to pricing. could you give me an idea

interested in 1-tan and 1-green thx

i’m out in Westhampton. i’ve got a lead on a new 2man setup to replace the aging doors/top on this one. might just snag that up and work out the 4 man setup down the road.
