nah they didnt actually do any splicing. they just popped all the factory rubber wire caps off the tail lights and put them in random places. just had to re-assemble them properly. lucky for you there are chances of finding guys who worked on them... my shop does some work on the CDN MLVW...

Yea bugeye I was very clear that they did work, just not correctly. I know better now and I am going to print off the TM's if I take it in there again. I am just learning to do more myself. Unfortunately some of the procedures are over my head as far as both knowledge and tools. USAFSS I...

that sounds like a great mod Kyle, I will find the thread and get that done. There are a few modernized modifications that are definitely worth doing. that is one and the screw on fuel filters, and air-o-matic steering are top on my list. thanks for the suggestions guys.. your experience...

so I picked up my deuce today and they got it back to the way it was. That particular mechanic had it on black-out and got confused. Did not ask did not question. funny just days before another mechanic had it through a safety inspection that verifies that all lamps are operational. and...

its pretty much the same here. if they forget to make you sign they can be hooped if you say no. but that would end my business relationship with them for sure and I would have to start from scratch with another shop

as I explained it was already there for a safety inspection and this was a side thought while it was in the shop. I didnt have time to deal with digging into the problem at this time as I am a 30yr old self employed contract driver with a small fleet 3 years into business, I have 2 daughters...

they work on the Canadian units.. Thats why I started taking it there because I figured they had a clue with odd jobs...

yea I am going to give them the service manual excerpt pertaining to the AO next time they were very apologetic.. and SWORE they would get it back to the way it was, and do a full brake system flush and re-bleed it all with DOT5 .. I gave them the manual already

yea you guys are right.. I am just pissed now and still cooling off. I don't deal well with people who can not follow simple instruction... I will chew them out calm clear and military like.... then get it out of there and fix it myself. KC5MZD I assume those jobs are in one of the service...

So I was having an issue with my brake lights not working unless I jammed the pedal down REALLY hard. So I thought to myself "maybe the brake fluid is low and the fluid actuated switch is not getting the proper amount of fluid to... actuate?" So while it was in getting its annual safety...

Good to know! Thanks

just a question about using stock split-rim wheels.... since the norm for those is to run with tubes is there anything I need to know before switching to Radials?

mine is bypassed. no problems with it my auto-glow relay has also been changed to a manual switch. both are continuous problems with those trucks and lots of times just bypassed to make them "simpler" K.I.S.S

that truck definitely looks like a Bert

love the HAGG's . buddy of mine has one too. this is his back yard. there is now a shop over top that APC

safe bet at that price! any photo's of this without the flipped hubs?

This is a local place here in Winnipeg KROY TIRE - CLICK FOR FLYER lots of Canadian trucks ran the 1200R20 but with a different wheel. I can get them cheap. they also have the 12.5, 14, and 16 all in R20. positions 11, 15, 16, 20 and 22 on that flyer are all military tires. I am going to...

will keep my eyes open

so a set of 1200 20 (40x13) Michelin XL's on stock wheels would be a nice moderate aggressive choice ?

check that link I posted . they have them state side along with our M113's and M578's. We cant buy them so you may as well. American government does not want us to have their equipment and Canadian government gives theirs to the states to sell... thus not allowing us to buy it. what a...
