centramatic wheel balancers I installed the centramatic balancers on my 1009. These Auto wheel balancers are made in Alvarado Texas and I had a set on a motorhome which worked great. I also know of a couple of independant truckers that use these on there trucks and swear by them. I went by...

IR lights installed on 1009 I moved my front IR lights and moved the control box on my winch so that it has a lower profile and the cover fits better. I decided I did not like the brackets and did not like the lights out that far. The winch control box was on top of the winch, I used a hose...

cucv spotlight mount Here is a pic off the light removed with the brackets on the back of the light. I would like to know where I can get the connectors that go on the back of the can and inside the can to the bulb. It looks like both the 7 inch lights and the IR lights us the same single pin...

They are L brackets with an extra tab welded to it to make it an F bracket. The bolt in the back tightens to clamp the bracket to the brace. The bulbs had an up arrow on them and the buckets lined up with the bulb so that the adjustment screws are on top and to the left side when looking at...

thanks, the M series headlight buckets that I got from Popacom (I think I got his last pair) are a perfect fit between the rails on the grill gaurd. What is nice about them is you can mount them even and then use the adjusters in the headlight housings to aim the spotlights. You do not have to...

I got my front lights mounted. two 24V popacom spotlights and two 24v IR lights. I made sandwich brackets to mount to the existing front grill gaurd. I now have to wire the lights and install some relay's

I have primed the fuel filter base by using a hand vacuum pump (same one for bleeding brakes) connect it to vent line, open valve and pump it till fuel flows without air bubles. If you stop pumping and have to remove the line to empty the cup just make sure you close the valve prior to removing...

Thanks for the compliments, it has been a lot of work but I enjoy it. I do need to get some kind of spell check working on this computer. I realized the error after I posted it. Thats ok for the jokes, I thought it was funny also. hope to get the gauge cluster finished this weekend.

I actually bought a wench from another member while on my road trip. 12000 lb mile marker. I plan to put a 2 inch receiver hitch on the front frame mounted behind the bumper with the end sticking out of the center of the license plate holder. I will get a mount for the wench that uses the 2...

The new wheels and tires really make it look good. I had the 5 inch lift with the stock 1008 tires and it really bothered me. It bothered me so much I had to blow a bunch of money on the new wheels and tires. I feal much better now. LOL Thanks, it is still in the works, I can only hope it...

Got the new Trail Worthy Fab recentered 12 bolts with rock rings and 37 inch tires installed today, I am going to have to trim the front of the front fenders just a little bit but I think thats all that will be needed. I am going to get the tractors out this weekend and check it with full...

If it is just the tip of the spring that wraps around the cable, you can use some small wire to tie that end around the cable, thats what I did with mine. I do not have pics but could get you one. If it is broken elsewhere you probably can not fix. yes for some reason LMC charges a lot for these.

for the windshield attenna attachment you can get it at lmc truck. http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/csb/full.aspx?Page=182

I built a behind the dash panel to mount my addional electrical equipment, I moved the diagonistic plug to the far pasanger side and made places to tie wrap the glow plug controler card and other card (can't remember what other card is). I also installed my Dakota digital tach interface and I...

10 X's better than origional seats, they actually have padding in them. Only one bolt hole lined up, I had to drill and install nuts and bolts for the other three on each seat. These seats have metal plates in the bottom of them for mounting so it was really easy to put them on the 1009 seat...
