    You got me, that was my deuce. Funny story; When I first got the deuce I had it parked on a vacant lot, behind some trees, across from my neighborhood. This was my temporary solution while I was locating a better place to park it. Well, someone complained about it so I had to move it. It...

    Yeah, you do need to be mindful of battery drain under my setup. I actually use two of the 720 watt converters and I have ran the stereo, amp, and PA's all night by accident once and the truck still fired right up in the morning. Having the security of the 3rd, independent, battery is...

    I made the two switch panels (one on each side of the steering wheel) out of 2" angle aluminum. Very easy to work with and it can found easily at you local home improvement store. After I cut the brackets to length, I just determined the number of switches I needed and then drilled equally...

    apache, I respect your opinion but for the installation of a simple stereo, CB, and DC accessory outlet, a $25-40 converter is the way to go. It is far less expensive, can be mounted nearly anywhere, no custom bracket needed, and can be done extremely quickly. A 12v alternator in this case...

    If that is all you are running you could probably get buy with one of the 720 watt voltage converters that Pyle makes. You can find them on amazon for less than $40. I have pictures of mine (I have two) earlier in this thread. I would not go though all the trouble of installing a 12v...

    Thank you greatly for the compliment! :D I'm enjoying your build thread as it unfolds. That truck of yours is mighty slick! Unfortunately, for the GT vs UGA game, I'm committed to going to a game watching party at my buddy's house in Smyrna. I can definitely help you when it come to...

    Yeah, After the Falcons game today I plan on pressure washing her. I wanted to take it to the tailgate muddy so that everyone would see that it is more than just a tailgate truck.

    Here are some of the pictures from today's tailgate. We did a low country boil and it turned out great. Unfortunately the game against BYU did not turn out so well.

    LOL. I wouldn't be surprised if you did hear that, with some of the strong opinions in that crowd. I put it on the way Ron suggested and it did get thoroughly tested later that afternoon. I will end up getting some more shackles so I can add in the other two sections. It was great hanging...

    Nah, keep it man. I gave away most of the stuff I had on the left table so that tag would have been given away anyhow. Great to meet you and thanks for being such a fun camp neighbor.
