If it's one of the 5-ton trucks from the GSA auction, those were nice clean trucks. Late model with low miles. They were test platforms used by Northrop Grumman in AZ if it's what I think it is...

So back to the OP, will they fit in an A1R?

Like some kinda limited slip thing?

And of course even if it was to work....will it work on A0? A1? A1R? Different Spicer CTIS controllers use different protocells from what I gather. I can't slap an A0 controller in my A1R and visa-versa...

I had one in my first truck. Took it off. Heavy-duty metal and dangerously close to the glass......

(wait, since when were the 90's "retro"?)

Same here

Others have made it work somehow. But if all else fails, get keyless handles for your power locks?

Tell him to get four additional flat bows (either fab them or buy them). Totally worth it to not have the canvas top sagged halfway to the bed after a rain storm. And find a way (zipties is what I use) to keep the bows from sliding fore/aft.

*it's rigged ;p

But the universal units that I linked all meet (exceed) the Gen2 spec (and with complete gen2 kits at $5000-7000 now, the universals are less than 1/4 of the cost even after brackets and pulley). Coldmaster sells Reddot stuff, too. I've never asked if Reddot can still crank out gen2...

btw: if it fits, it cools :)

Gen2 are rated at 30k if I recall. And if you are going to insulate the cab, you possibly won't need that much. Sean ("Able") has the OEM Reddot HUMVEE a/c (24k btu) in his cab and says it's more than enough (of course, he lives in PacNW so I can't say if that would be enough in a hell like...

Exactly. Buy the universal kit. Install it as is or have a fab shop bend you a box, cut a few holes, and ...ta-da...instant gen2 housing. Slap the universal components in there and off you go. *I have all the exact dimensions of the gen2 housing somewhere if anyone needs them, btw (if I...

Fyi: for the cost of a surplus evap you can get an entire system from Coldmaster. You need the pulley and bracket still, but saves thousands of dollars going this route. https://www.ebay.com/itm/264706381764?hash=item3da1bad7c4:g:ZFYAAOSwM9henfeC...

You can find the gen2 evap/blower on Ebay still.

My controller is going tits-up. It's been acting up for some time. Mine is an A1R with the C7 and all sorts of fun electrical bits. The controller is different than the A0 models (I'm told that they are totally incompatible). I'm not really interested in spending a grand on the correct...

Yes, lots of folks have swapped to TriMark handles (basically the gen2). They can be found all over for ~$50-80 pr (or for $500-600 pr from one of our friendly point of compass surplus scalpers). Pretty simple mod (there's a few videos out there).

Unless it comes with someone to do the digging, no.... ;)
