I am definitely pleased about that! My stimulus check has not arrived yet... better check the mail box again...:roll: Took her out for a spin... torquey little beast!! gotta do somethning about the seat though... went through some rough spots and almost bounced out of the cab... the seat...

Sure great to have knowledgeable people that are willing to share that info here. Who knows how many hours I would have spent looking at the TMs and wiring diagrams... Reset it and she fired up first tap. :razz: Now to find the m#$%$r f$%%#r that used it to shut the truck off in the first place...

My recently acquired XM818 started and ran like a top during pickup, then great during unloading and several times while sitting at my yard. Then, a friend fixed an air leak (swollen and ruptured copper line) in the brake system and the air filter was checked as well as oil level(both looked...

Have a Deuce fire truck and a 5 Ton tractor... My wish list for both... Front steps... I would have them on both sides and maybe wide enough for both feet? A/C compressor bracket... maybe the 12V alternator bracket... That first step on the 5 ton is a doozie... I need to check to be sure that...

Interesting options, would like to know how bad to get in and out of them. I guess they would have to be fit (adjusted) to a particular driver/passenger? If attached to floor at the 3 spots, is the floor of the deuce stout enough to do what this belt wants it to do? How would it work with the...

don't know which lamp you are talking about, Where is it used? If in the dash, many are the 1829, but I am unclear about what you are asking.

tried the 1829's - seem to work the same... similar brightness... as far as longevity... guess time will tell

I guess this would be as good a place as any to post a very positive purchase experience I had while searching for bulbs for my deuce fire truck. I did the NAPA thing but their prices meant I could buy a couple of each. I had seen on this site where other members had had reasonable prices from...

Not a purist concept... but I just like Murphy tattle tale gauges... if your oil pressure goes south or the water temp goes north you can wire it to a big back up alarm horn and if you set it right maybe keep you from ruining a good engine... come in all sizes and ranges

I just checked out the 4570 and the 4572... no issue with the 4572, but the 4570 has a "diffused" or focused lens, OK for the hose bed lights, but different from my current 12 Volt lamps currently on my Unity spots which are just clear and smooth. The beam is very directional and focused from...

4572 alt part#24833, hose bed and 4570 spots alt part#24828... that is the info I was looking for. Thanks

My 2 bits.. We run Cats and Komatsus and Cases and other heavy equipment. All, with the exception of a couple of screens are 24 Volt. My deuce and my 5 ton are 24 volt. My duramax is 12 V... but 2 batteries in parallel. What I have found is that the higher the amp you draw, the thicker the...

I don't know. I do know that my spots and my hose bed lights are 6 inch unities. I am trying to find out if they use PAR46 mount bulbs. I believe they do, but have not been able to confirm. maybe I should do another post with just that question? Thanks

yeager1, You are probably right. The price looks doable... now it is just a matter of insulating the cab, finiding a pulley to drive a compressor with... etc. Would be spectacular to sit in Miami traffic without a puddle forming underneath:razz:... at least not one from sweat!!! I could...

As far as I know, there were quite a few made. Some for the Army, some for the Air Force. I have talked with a couple of other owners... She is definitely a special truck. Mine came from a municipality in Minnesota and had been previously with the Forestry service. She had a little over 12K...

Oh yeah... and she is a sweetheart!!! siren, fender mounted spot and rooftop beacon... pump works great also.

Nice... 2 problems I see with it... I have to give up my Federal rooftop beacon (fire truck...) and the ... ?? $ 4K? Wow... Cannot go there...

Now that is interesting!!! If this could affordably be done, then I could mount the compressor and the condensing coil (with an electric fan) under my water tank in my deuce fire truck. then just run two freon lines to the cab evap unit... just might work! Now to do the math... how much current...

OK, but from what I have seen, the multi-fuel radiator has plenty of cooling for the a/c condenser and then some.. worst case scenario, should the a/c causes the engine to overheat, would be mounting the condensing coil somewhere under the bed in the back under the water tank... but my first...

why not use the condensing unit mounted in front of radiator... cheaper and cleaner? I know that on heavy equipment, the only reason for mounting "hickey" condensing units is because equipment sometimes have pusher fans instead of pullers. I also don't have the room over my cab... that is...
