I mounted 2 caution lights on my truck and it rotates but doesn't light up. I picked thes light up from a SS member a few months ago and finally installed them. I actually picked up 4. 2 for my pick up truck. The ones on the pick up were installed shortly after I got it and work fine. The 2 on...
I looked up the TM and did a SS search but still have questions.
(1)....apply adhesive to exposed zipper and fabric. Allow adhesive to sitovernight. What adhesive am I supposed to use? Can you use seal maker?
(2) Discard safety wire (1). Where can you find a replacement for the safety wire...
5 Ton ISO Bed canvas installation new questions
EDIT
So I got the bows up ad pulled out the canvas. It seems like there are 2 sets of covers. Maybe when they changed the bed they kept the old cover. The other one is almost new and was folded up nicely. It also looks larger.
So, my question is...
Moving to AZ for work from FL but will still own a house in FL. I'm keeping my FL driver license and CWP.
FL doesn't require a tag to be placed on your MV and my truck will remain registered in FL with antique plates for now. Will I need to add the plates to my truck?
Any laws regarding MVs...
Does this mean that it was in service up to at least 2006? And if so, does that mean the it has been maintained every 3000 miles as it states in the TM?

I see a lot of vehicles with a V < > ^ symbols on them. I believe they are coalition forces symbols but I'm not sure. Also what does it mean when its pointed up, forward or down?
I was thinking of putting a WWII invasion star on my 1980s 5 ton but I want a more period accurate symbols.
I haven't seen any talk on my search about larger panels on trucks. I want to put a 300W (24v) panel on my 5 ton roof (M923). Then run that to a charge controller (20 amp) to a second set of deep cycle batteries. Then have an isolator (200 amp relay/solenoid) between the 2 sets of batteries...
I have read the TM but don't have a quality multimeter. I will be getting one soon. So, I'm asking here about an issue I have starting my truck. My first question is which multimeter to buy?
I'm thinking of a Fluke Multimeter but not sure which model.
I have new batteries (1100 amps each)...
I have the chance to buy one for 200 bucks and have it shipped but have a few questions.
I plan on putting it on the back of a M923 with front winch.
From the search I did on SS they fit frames 34 inches wide.
1. How can this be mounted to the M923 rear end (frame is 29 to 33 inches if I...
I have been doing some research regarding vents from axles, fuel tank, Trans and T case.
First I will say I have a water fording kit on my M-923 (Marine truck).
