    Relays (headlight)

    Constant on solenoids are also used on electric winches. They are very bulletproof. I use them on all my performance motors. Even at 220 they will start right up. A constant off will not. Good unit.

    Which is the best way to go?

    I have to agree with Kenny. Its 19 degrees right now here and my deuce is nice and toasty with the heater on. I love to put the top down and is real easy with the soft top. I also agree with buying a solid running truck, no matter what the options it has. A friend owned my truck before me so I...

    Radiator leaking again!

    I was using the truck around the yard today. Went up the road 2 miles and steam poored out of the hood. The antifreeze was pouring out of a leak in the core again.

    Observations in Flat Towing

    towing Kenny, I almost knew you were going to say that when I typed it. Back then a friend had a 46 willys w/38s. Flat towed from NJ to Utah and back no problem on turns. Tracked right behind him like a trailer.

    Observations in Flat Towing

    towing Kenny, One problem is the angle of your towbar. It has to be level or slightly pointing up from the vehicle being towed to work correctly. When at that angle your pulling down on the bumper putting more force on the tires trying to track. In my poorer days, I towbared my CJ5 on 40 inch...

    Is a cab unmodified by a heater kit/slave receptacle rare?

    heater When you install these the slave is easy. Unbolt the plate and bolt in the slave then hookup the cables. The heater I bought the kit. Had everything but the plate. Not a hard install, except drilling the frame. Mark

    Pull off's

    axles I forgot to mention around here the 4wheeling trucks use deuce rears under their trucks with 55 inch tires and no weight. Those axle shafts are not as strong as you think. We break them front and back all the time. One guy even broke a rear one with 5 ton rears under a 79 F250. Pics on...
