    30 mph tops

    What can I look at to remedy this situation? I have just finished my restoration and started driving my truck in a higher speed limit zone and all I can get up to is 30.

    I posted a wtb for an air cleaner support but does anyone that has one be willing to take some good measurements/pics of so I can possibly have one manufactured? This is the last piece I need for my water fording kit. Thanks Mike

    M37 to modern MV brake lights
