I've done a number of shows, parades and fund raisers. There is always someone in the crowd that thinks they have the right to get into your vehicle. I wonder if its legal to tazer them if you catch them in the act :???:
Well someone got into my truck while at the store recently. Didn't notice that my locking handle didn't work any more. They applied so much pressure on the handle that it broke the locking cog inside the mechanism. Luckily I put the chain around the steering wheel as added protection. I finally...
The ramps are about 120 the 5th wheel assembly probably around 450 -500 pounds. I paid a guy with a service truck and 2 ton crane to help me for the day. Best $600 I ever spent. We got my tructor bed done in one day.
Make sure you have something to bolt it down. Tractors have no provisions to secure beds. I had attachment brackets made for mine that are bolt on just like the commercial rigs use.
Use the search function in the forum. This is a well discussed item. Here's a link to my thread that covers this.

Jon, congrats on the new truck. Look forward to seeing it at a few events this year.
The abs light will stay on if you don't get a good self check. This could be a result of the battery/alternator issue since the unit needs I believe 21-31 volts to operate; I need to look in the manual. I have...

I fab'ed up the brackets for the markers and an adapter plate to mount the seat to the stock...
The NHC 250 does not like cold weather. Do you have the ether start system ? I installed a block heater for this exact reason. I started my truck with it being 30F outside. I had it plugged in for about 2 hours and it cranked over and started like a warm summer day. The batteries you...
I recommend you do the air tool oil trick. You don't even need to start the truck. Keep air pressure on it from an external compressor. Work the brakes good just sitting still pumping and applying a firm boot to the pedal a couple of times. You might need to do the oil a couple of times...
The unit operates from 21-32 v. There are two fuses, a 3 amp and a 15 amp fuse as you already know. Make sure you check the connector on the ecu and that its tight and clean. You are not getting a good self test on start up. How often do you drive the truck and did it sit for a while ? Is...
