Thanks Mike! I didn't know the current draw until I went back to the store and decided to try the 12V route again. I tried the same switch before with some led work lights that only pulled 2 amps total. The light burned out in about two months but the switch continued working. I was really...

I was just trying to avoid that- but it was helpful to have someone show me exactly how to wire it- even though it's very simple to do. Like they say "simple things fascinate simple minds", and this has been just fascinating.

Well, to finish this thread, I never did find a 24V toggle switch. Lots of 12V or 24V rockers witches. :-(. So, I happened to stop at Radio Shack for some other parts and discovered the clerk was a retired electrical engineer! :-) Wow, I couldn't believe it- so I asked him how to wire a resistor...

This is a great show. I went last year just to look at the vehicles and ended up bringing back a truck load of parts. Lots of vendors with hard to find parts and a lot of different vehicles.

Tim292stro- I took a switch apart but no resistor inside. Once I have the correct resistor, how do I wire it in? The terminals on the switches are labeled "power", "acc", "ground".

I was going to ask you the same thing. You mentioned Carling so I checked their web site- didn't find any 24V illuminated toggle switches. Have you purchased one from Carling or did I misunderstand your post?

Thanks- I'm looking through their website but not finding illuminated toggles yet... will keep looking when I get time again.

OK, thanks- I'll check that out!

No joy at Radio Shack but thanks for the info!

Warthog- thanks for checking. I saw that once before. A little too pricey @ $23.46 and it comes with a 14V bulb- don't know what kind of bulb or if it could be changed.

Thanks everybody! Vped- how do I determine the correct resistor size? Porky- I have googled this many times and when you actually start researching the results you find that 12 volt switches are actually what is being returned. I think Alibaba requires dealing with Vendors in China and I can't...

Can anybody tell me how I can use 12V illuminated switches on my 24V deuce? Using a resistor, etc? Or can you point me to a vendor who sells 24V illuminated toggle switches? I want to use them to turn on exterior LED floodlights, etc. Thanks!

Have you tried sitting on those troop seats? With that wide spacing if they're not sagging now they will be. I considered using them in my woodworking business but discovered they don't have much strength. They also fade badly because of an ingredient called "wood flour". (Google "Trex...

Thank you ..umm, hyper cycle??

For us non- mechanics, what's the purpose of the hole on top of the piston?

Very ingenious- good job!

If the sending unit, wiring, and gauge are okay, perhaps the thermostat is stuck open not allowing the water to heat up? Just a thought......(I get them every couple of years..)

I was just going to ask what "straight #2 diesel" injectors look like- guess I'll have to wait. :-)

The deuce bed is about 54" above the ground. Don't forget you will need to be able to unload at your destination- dirt mounds/ loading ramps might not always be available. The deuce will do everything you need it to- as somebody else mentioned, you might need to wait for parts as most of us get...

Welcome- Pantano is a ghost town originally known as Cienega, Az, so....are you....??
