    Top bow length

    The top bows that came with my non-dropside bed are too short. They are approx. 70" long. It would appear that they should be approx. 75 1/2" long. Would the short ones perchance fit a dropside bed? If not , any suggestions as to what they might fit? Maybe a trailer, M37 etc. Any thoughts...

    Antenna Mount

    I posted in the radio section also, but is there a "proper" ant. mount for the Deuce or does it depend on the radio installed? I see STEAMYNACHOS wants to know also. BC

    Horn Button parts needed

    Anybody have an old style horn button setup they want to part with? One of the three locking tabs on mine is broken. Also, the rubber horn button itself is not very flexible any more so I could use one of them also. Thanks, BC

    Air outlet for compressor

    Do you guys that don't have fording kits have the outlet for the air compressor on the backside of the air filter housing plugged. I'm wondering if that would let enough air in so that the 2x4 trick over the main inlet wouldn't work to stop a runaway engine.

    I'm sure that it has been posted here before but I'm not exactly sure what the main flaw is with that engine. Saw one the other day with a turbo. Just curious.

Only a guess, but probably not to hard to...
