    I thought so, they are sweet looking. I like the things most people will not notice. The average joe is just thinking its a smooth knoby thingy. But to us its a M430A1 HEDP.

    RE: Re: rules of thumb... Hey man i know jsut how you feel. I too try hard for what i call the "factory" look. I guess im not so big on it lookin military simply because most of the people i hang out with have no idea what it should look like anyway. It is very hard to balance...

    RE: no room... Hey, as for the ac part, could you mount the condenser (er maybe, the one that makes heat) some where else and stick a fan on it? Kinda like the retro fit kit they stick on everything. Maybe that would free up some space and add invaluable cooling for the motor. I see the PS...

    hey hey nice PS gear box! If it makes you feel any better about chopping the top of the web off the frame front, almost every new truck I look at has the front couple feet of the top rail chopped off.

    Yes you may have to make alternator bracket but i think by the looks of things that would be the least of your problems. the batt's probably wouldnt be a problem. i figure like this. now you have 24 volts and the amps of one battery, make it 12 volt and you would double the amps. We have a few...

    Hey, did you ever consider a complete 12 volt conversion? Makes life ALOT simpler. The starter is a simple 40MT(?or older?) AC DELCO unit. Im sure you could find one. I converted when I put the Cummins in and love it. The flasher even works on 12 volts, I hear that the new style Lighted light...

    HEY man i was going to do that! i wasnt sure i would like the tapers on the sides but hey it looks alright. I was thinkin maybe older 50's pick ups have a little more square window but i too ran into lots of curves at the class shop. Either way the stock slider in my hard top is way too small...
