    RESOLVED: Dash gauge issues when CTIS plugged in?

    Here's what's on my 2008 (w/C7) It's actually green.

    AC Option?

    I hate you ! ;p Seriously, this is part of the equation for one option so it is important. Most owners are running the 100a alt, so an alt swap would be in order. And given the dual voltage Niehoffs do tend to fail (and are *grossly* underpowered for our trucks) swapping to a 24v and then...

    M1079 Captive Spring images

    Rgr that. I've no current plans to pull mine but I may disconnect and lift it when I do my plumbing. Or perhaps next time I run the air out to do something, I will knock one off. I know that the spring specs come up all the time, so if I do I will have the local spring place spec it out for me.

    Didn't you pull your box off that 1079 you had/have?

    M1079 Captive Spring images

    I was kidding. That's a spring off the front coilover from one of my prerunners. ;)

    AC Option?

    I would like more info on the 260a Niehoff. There is so little out there on the A1R trucks (especially electrical) and I honestly had no idea it even came with the 260a until I got it home.

    AC Option?

    Yeah, I should have been more clear about swapping the alt. I think Sean Fulner was the first I ever saw mention it a couple years back but he went to a 200a Niehoff out of a HMMWV instead. That was when I snagged the Bussman, though. As I said, it was when I still had my 100a A0 (I'm the...

    AC Option?

    I follow. But the Fast Cooler box was like $1500 back in the day. No idea what they run these days. I'd love to have one for the full day runs down Padre to Port Mansfield jetties in the prerunner but not very practical. . Still, I'm looking at AC options for the truck...not so much...

    AC Option?

    I actually have a Bussmann 21100E00 still in the box. I was going to install it as a balancer but I can get another one to run as a converter. You have better ideas on this than I do. I haven't put much thought into the concept of this yet, but that is exactly why I picked up the Bussman...

    AC Option?

    Yes, we used run desert cars (I still own two prerunners). I'm quite familiar with the systems you refer to. We ran Fast Cooler suits years ago (nothing really inexpensive about the units). But it's absolutely not something I wish to invest in to drive my truck around town, to the beach, or...

    Spotted in Montreal, Canada

    Tan with small dark brown dots? If so, yeah he posts here. He had some mechanicals getting it home. He posted some great shots but that may have been on FB (I left FB and haven't been censored since). I should have a couple pics of that truck somewhere. :)

    AC Option?

    While not ideal, still viable. The cost of the inverter drops quite a bit and selections jumps way up when switching to 12V.

    AC Option?

    Rgr that. I've found them for $970.48 at one store, so +$220. Glad you mentioned that because I searched for the commercial and Amazon dropped that part I see.

    AC Option?

    Chillers aren't all that effective in +80% humidity (year round except Feb which is our winter in S. TX). LOL But yeah, I rode Harleys most of my life. Wet bandanas can safe your life in the heat!

    AC Option?

    LOL, I forgot the link. It's factored into the price I posted. And it was in my cart twice, so the first price I posted was way over. /fixed

    AC Option?

    Already have on on my hab AC, but yes that will be added for the cab if I go this route.
