Found them. Here's the fun part. Passenger side LED, driver side sealed beam.. Can you tell which one has BOTH on and which one has just the LED? Yeah, that tiny round orange dot? Yeah. That's it.. :ROFLMAO:

My M934 had the standard halogen sealed beam bulbs in it when I picked it up from Bragg... Those things were damn near useless. I learned from my very first M1009 that the sealed beam bulbs are absolute garbage. I have a pic somewhere of the M1009 with 1 sealed beam and 1 LED. The 1 LED H6054...

The knockoff trucklites are actually pretty high quality these days. Only thing you don't get in the knockoffs is the heater... which you don't get until you step into the much higher end trucklite models anyway. :D...

Headlights ($50x2) - I got them on sale when they were ~$80 https://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Headlight-Davidson-Heritage-Switchback/dp/B074PQ8T2B Front turn signal ($30) - I got them on sale when they were $22 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NQX43FB/ Front parking lamp ($12)...

Yeah, when the headlights are visible against the wall in broad daylight... you know they're bright... I do still have to adjust them. Also, turn signals, some of the brighter ones I've found that outright advertise 9-30V.. Most are 12V and say they're 12/24V but will burn out quick... and...

Heh. I clarified my last post. Deuce will be up for sale. 5 ton is getting ready for the road. With the minimal MPG difference between the 2, and the add'l capabilities and ease of maintenance/replacement parts with 5 ton, the only thing the duece had going for it was slightly smaller size...

Deuce is gonna be up for sale, as soon as I actually take the time to list it... hah 5 ton is the path forward.

After letting it cool down a bit... LED headlights, parking lamps, and turn signal lamps. Also, for future reference, probably a good idea to stop trying to unscrew something that feels like it's gonna break, because, it's probably gonna break.. I spritzed everything with a plastic safe...

LED headlights, parking lamps, and turn signal lamps.

Wherever they're cheapest. ;) I had a local filter place that was pretty competitive, but there are some things they're just WAY off on, and these filters were one one of those examples. https://www.amazon.com/BF7587-Baldwin-Fuel-Spin-Pack/dp/B0B1489W5C They're normally $20-25 a piece, so 6...

Good news. That's a 1-14 filter..... Meaning the same thread base as the FB1311 I use, which means you can use the BF7587 (4 micron absolute). The 7587 is close to a foot long... It's a beefy one, with serious filtration capability. Bad news is, the 86109 is 5 nominal, 20 absolute... meaning...

15K miles or 3 years for most cars. Heavy duty trucks have larger filters to offset the increased fuel requirements. I still couldn't see it needing to be changed any more frequently. Sounds like you either have contamination or a different issue. The fuel filters also act as a polisher, as it...

I posted most of what I did in my WeenieWagun build thread.. I also found my stash of 24V LED marker bulbs and headlights that was going to go in my deuce and now repurposed to my 5T, so that'll be getting done shortly. Also needed these.. sharing for those who don't know how easy they are to...

Is it more on your tailgate? or all over? Oil that's coming from a leak below the truck, especially from the driveline, will cause oil spots on the rear of the truck if you're driving at speed. Nothing I can think of can cause oil spots other than that. If your exhaust has OIL in it, and...

Did it rain? Could be water capturing soot particles coming out of the exhaust, and dropping onto the truck. If it's a light rain/mist it'll do that. It'll also do that if the truck hasn't been driven for a while and condensation builds up in the exhaust stack. The second you give it some gas it...

They're very popular in motor coaches... where they're routinely outputting 350 HP for hundreds of thousands of miles. There are also Marine versions (as in, boats) that push 400HP.... 1100 ft lb of torque seems to be the upper limit for all variants. First thing I need to do is get all the...

Supposedly same as the NHC250, but since it relies on a turbo, it definitely is lacking a bit until it spools up. Nice thing about the 8.3 though, is it's easily modified to crank out a bunch more power. Per Wiki...

Alright so.... time to update... M923a2 I got from local auction. High bid $7100, almost 2k$ in taxes/fees/transport costs.. Going from 1100s on my M934 to 1400s on the A2.... holy crap. It's only like 3 inches but it feels like it's a good foot higher trying to climb up there.. I'll be...

If you don't remove the return line, it's gonna suck it all in pretty quick....and dump most back in the tank and dilute it. I forgot to mention you'll want to put the return line in your bucket 'o purge, so it's cycling through nothing but your mix. If you're using just seafoam, or a light...

To the above - If you're looking at cleaning/freeing up the fuel selector valve, then you can disconnect both lines and run both of them into your pail that you're sucking your purge solution from, then just keep moving the valve back and forth as it's sucking it in, 30 seconds or so on each...
