    Source for 6TL Battery

    With dry, you have the added cost of buying acid. You then would fill your own and charge it up yourself. Get wet and tell the counterman to order you in "current fresh date codes".

    Miler Marker Hydraulic Winch Identification

    The easy way to remove the lower control arm bolt is to jack it up and relieve the weight. Then use the new longer bolt to chase out the shorter bolt. On the driver's side, I had to remove the caliper out of the way to have clearance.

    Hydro boost leak - vent tube?

    Should be a red fluid and using dexron. Are any of the lines going into the hydroboost leaking? If lines are clean and no leaks then: To me that sounds like your hydroboost unit is leaking and you need a new unit. Does the brake pedal feel stiffer or harder to depress?

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    There is no specific date range for this bill as it is broad and that is a good thing. My thought and I believe you already comply is the min equipment they want. Windshield, headlight, taillight, blinkers, horn etc. Look at the bill's equipment. Only thing that I see problematic for you is seat...
