DJones, I ga-rawn-teeeee he spent a LOT more than you had to tuh get them under his. hehehe
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I used the boards from under to fill in the sides and between them. I cut some 1/2" stock for under them so the hold down tabs didn't poke the bottom. Then used a couple of boards on top so the seat bottom can't get down into the terminals...careful it's close if they are the 1400 cca. On one, I had to put rubber over the terminals and a sheet of plastic...okay old innertube and a opened up 2 liter. I took a Hawker with nearly melted off terminal out of that one from the seat bottom getting into the terminal.Today, I replaced my batteries with 2 new 8D-6 batteries, made a triple ought gauge cable to connect the two, and I've installed one of those Keyed ignition switches. I also found 2 loose/worn out wire connectors going to the ignition switch. Those loose wires are now on my "next to do list".
Hey has any one every made a battery holder for any 8D's? This is also on my "next to do list".

Never even took note that it was a first post!Give him a break guys he's new.
I was teaching him how to post.
He has a 939 dump truck which I am sure he will show us.
Don't blame him I told him to just say test.
It was a tiring day all I could think of at that moment.
Buff, looks sexyToday I finally got around to it. I ©16'd my truck. That's right I copyrighted it. Please feel free to use the phrase and just PayPal me the royalties. Working on getting Wikipedia to update the term.
©16'd - (six-teen-ed) - to install giant 16.00 x 20 tires on ones vehicle.
Anyway, here's the pix. HEMTT rims up front. 5 ton combat rims on the back. Still trying to figure out the correct air pressure to keep from harming the tires and make it a reasonably comfortable ride while empty.

$75 is pain, but it's not a big pain.Went to a Push/Pull type parking brake valve on the dash. Easy mod. 15ft of 1/2" air line is needed and KN20021 parking brake valve. Pretty simple just run a supply line from the double check valve behind the fuel tank to the parking valve. Then run your delivery valve to the line coming off the front hose off the parking brake under the cab. It actually goes to a check valve in the drivers step. This is a great mod for those worried about their kids knocking the brakes off on the truck. About a $75 mod.
