    Got the rifle holder mounted today

    In KY I got pulled over in my pickup once, with a glock in the glove box, and the state trooper chastised me for NOT having hollow-points in it! :D I'll have a loaded magazine in the retro-rifle in a parade next Thurs.

    Got the rifle holder mounted today

    No, it's all black furniture just poor lighting. The retro gun is a M16A1 upper on a Nodak Spud retro lower with M16A1 furniture. Unfortunately both just semi-auto. "Deuceman" Troy from this site.

    Got the rifle holder mounted today

    Technically the floor holders aren't mounted yet, just sitting there. I was thinking about getting them Rhino-coated or something first, to put a softer touch on them. But either way...the dash install went fine, except the first hole I drilled near the glove box was too high. There was some...

    Brake Pedal Goes to floor suddenly out of the blue

    So those that don't have the vent cap have what instead?

    Brake Pedal Goes to floor suddenly out of the blue

    Ok that's really what I thought but wanted to make sure. Now I'll go read up again on determining which fluid you have so as to add the proper kind, if needed.

    Brake Pedal Goes to floor suddenly out of the blue

    Okay, I've been looking at my brake system lately and I have a very remedial question that I was hesitant to post but here goes: how do you open the master cylinder? I have searched the -10 and -20 manuals and this site and can't find the answer to that. Attached is a pic of mine. What is...

    Big thank you to Gimpy and Kipman

    I just wanted to publicly thank Gimpyrob and Kipman for recently helping me bigtime, recovering some GL mercandise for me and getting it to Cincinnati. Thanks so much, guys. You're great individuals and this site is a great place for helpful folks. If I can ever return the favor from Knox or...

    Tunes via the slave cable port

    Got a camping trip coming up and wanted to be able to play some music (not while I'm driving, can't hear anyway). Picked up a 400 watt (24v) power inverter online for under $40. I was trying to figure out where to hook it up (it came with clips to go on the battery terminals, but...) I started...

    Dome light install in a hardtop

    Got the first light in the cab. Tried drilling a hole in the soft top support bar to snake the wires through that but couldn't stuff them through. Oh well. Hey, here's a tip I haven't seen posted before: I wanted to remove the stop-post that prevented easy turn-on of the unfiltered light (I'm...

    Electrical access behind seat?

    Hey, while I've got y'all--an in-line fuse for these tank dome lights should be what amperage?

    Electrical access behind seat?

    Yeah, I think I'm gonna pass my hot wire thru the slave cable grommet straight to the battery. Now I'm just looking for clean metal to ground to. I'll find something. The more challenging one will be the light I mount in the bed, er, cargo area. Whatever. Thanks!

    Electrical access behind seat?

    OK, I've searched this site for "electric passenger seat" in the Deuce forum, and I searched the term "electric" in both the -10 and -20 technical manuals. And I STILL need to ask this question: In some of the dome light threads, people talk of patching into electrical access behind or...

    Dome light install in a hardtop

    OK, Napa part # 784353 Female Snap Terminal-Nylon. Plugs right into the light--snaps in quite firmly in fact. A box of 10 pcs cost me $3 and change. I also bought plenty of 14 ga wire so I'm all set.

    Dome light install in a hardtop

    Wow, I was grudgingly in for the $17 kit until I saw the $9 shipping! I'll try Napa or Radio Shack first!

    Dome light install in a hardtop

    You don't have a part#, do you? I found their "rubber shell connectors" but there are five different varieties...

    Dome light install in a hardtop

    That's a nice-looking install. Can you tell me where you got the wiring connector? I'm about to do the same thing.

    First Road Trip

    Y'all are talking about recovery but OP is asking about road trip. Not necessarily the same thing... (i.e. I think he's gonna drive a long way ON PURPOSE, not because he has to :wink: )

    The LDT-465 that ran backwards

    Makes me sick to think how many affordable, good used vehicles were destroyed in that program. Talk about hurting the middle class!

    Fort Knox Recovery 8/11/2010

    That's funny I haven't even tried putting mine in low range yet. Or engaged the front wheels, for that matter. Scared I'll break something, I guess. Hey, back to the OP: what kind of highway speeds were you getting up to on I-71?
