I agree with the cost/benefit question. They are much brighter and look cool. To switch over to all LED is not cheap about $1000. I've done other expensive upgrades like wheels and tires, passenger spring seat, gun ring, etc. Its all about priorities. I am considering trying the napa ones...

wow !

Cruise around 57 mph. With the singles and the short wheel base it is a bumby ride even with tire pressures front 60 rear 50. It turns as sharp as my deuce so that's a great trade. Unless you have a bed local and can do the work yourself you'll end up spending more on the conversion. The...

Yes, 5th wheel and ramps come off.

Here's my 932a1 with a shortend deuce bed. If you take the tire and tool box off you should be able to use the entire bed and put the spare in the bed.

60 front, 50 rear works good for me.

Glad it worked out for you.

That steel is tough. Took me 3 days and 9 drill bits to do all the drilling and rivets. I went to Harbor junk and got their big air riveter. Worked great.

Do not toe in on these trucks. You will have stability issues. These are not normal lifted trucks. This has been discussed in detail in the forum before. Toe in decreases stability and allows for quicker turn in for corner entry. This is the last thing you want in a truck like this.

Awesome ! Glad I could help. The forum has helped me many times. Happy to return the favor.

Glad its working. You need to have some toe out with oversized tires. I've herd as much as a 1/2 inch on bobbed trucks with 16's. I'm at 3/8 inch 395's and it could probably use a little more. You will never get rid of the loose feeling completly without a steering damper or a regular...

If you have it apart might as well replace all the seals, cheap insurance. Good luck !

Is your coolant system full. Is your fan coming on when it gets hot. Is your temp sender working right ? I just replaced my temp sender after some trouble shooting and its working great. Here's the part number for the thermostat: NSN 6685011410907 part # 201737

Welcome to the club and the never ending toy fixing :beer:

Waiting on a test drive result for noise, very nice !

Go ahead and increase your toe out as described above. Then do a test drive and see if its better. If it gets better a little more toe out might be necessary. When I did mine I didn't even measure toe. I adjusted about 3/8 inch out and that solved 90% of the skidish feeling.

This is what I would do also. Have a bright flashlight handy.

Good luck and great job doing searches and reading the forums. You are on the right track. I have a very slight leak at my IP . I need to check it out. Hopefully its only the o rings for the fuel shutoff. Oh, welcome aboard. Wait for it ...

Turn so the wheels are straight. Put a staple in each tire, on the front side, so you can get an exact distance between the staples. Jack the front axle off the ground so that the tires are just touching. Loosen the tie rod behind the axle. Then turn the tie rod a full turn one direction and...
