    ...and that is why I am here, to learn this stuff. Right now the LED option is looking good and installing my first solar system is in the running as well. It will give me a lot of knowledge I NEED. Any Solar guys here? I still say any company that will sell simple solar systems...

    lighting Fixture Ballast

    Yea....there dated 1987 but I do have all 4 of what I think are called the defusers, meaning the clear-ish covers for the lights and not wanting to tear it all out because that means $ to put it all back. We'll figure sumthang out eventually.

    lighting Fixture Ballast

    Sure, cutting off the connector and 4 wire nuts and I will be done I guess... I am beginning to believe that the ballasts were plundered BECAUSE they are made out of unobtainium. I may need to think this a bit harder. If OEM parts are not there to be had cheap then maybe I should consider...

    lighting Fixture Ballast

    I picked up a 10' EMI container yesterday fro GL Barstow. The Fluorescent lights have been raped. The ballasts and bulbs are gone. The lamps are easy because there is a stamp that says; RELAMP W/ F40T12CW A quick search and I see these lamps are easy to get. The ballasts have no such label...

    Artisan's M916

    Give a man a piece of metal pre-formed and shaped to the man's current desires and he will be appeased for a day. Teach a man to pre-form and shape a piece of metal into his liking and he shall open up a whole new world unto him. Artisan 2:55 :-)

    1958 M37 flooded 7 years ago

    I am concerned about ICE expanding inside things. Pray things are Ok but don't be surprised if it has issues. Better yet, might be best to just spend a couple G's and ship it to me in sunny So Kalif so I can dry it out proper! One hellofa1stpost BTW!~ :-)

    Artisan's M916

    The nut that holds on your spare tire is NOT the same OD size as a lug nut. This could be a rude awakening on the side of the road so I decided to fix it. A little CAD drawing, cut a sleeve out of .75" steel w/ the water jet and TIG it together into a proper sized nut! One less thing to do on...

    M923A2 Muffler repair/replace?

    RE: NHC250 Engines I have learned a few things about the NHC 250 that really should be a sticky for all new owners. You MUST do the mandatory visual eyeballing of the insulation that is around the Main power feed lines, + and -, from the battery to the starter, checking for insulation wear...

    winch installs

    Great thread! Awesome work by all. I grabbed a couple of these winches recently and I found a little bit of documentation / parts / exploded views for these Series 18 winches. If anyone has any proper sized fairleads I might need a couple of them. CLICK HERE linking to the 911 on the Series 18

    Artisan's M916

    Series 18 Winches I am considering adding a winch to my truck(s) . I grabbed a couple of MRAP take offs from GL Hooks Texas a week ago or so, I await their arrival to see if I bought trash or if I did OK. The documentation for these from Warn is slim. I was able to dig up some good info...
