    License plate lights

    I was talking about running lights, and yes they will ticket a tractor for not having a rear plate if their weight class calls for one to be there instead of up front ( varies by State ). For a time in Fla I had to have the plate up front on my fuel truck but the weight class got rewritten and...

    License plate lights

    I disagree I've been told by more then one LEO that when it comes to driving a vehicle at night that they will/have issued citations for improper lighting and told the driver to "Tell it to the judge" as they don't want to hear it, so right or wrong for the sake of saftey I have no problems...

    Question, Troop strap

    If I remember correctly The strap for the 1/2 and 3/4 ton dodges was 1 1/4" wide ( 33mm ) to where the deuce strap is 1 3/4" ( 45mm) wide., Other than that it should fit on either vehicle.

    Preping your deuce for paint

    If your not going with sandblasting the whole truck down to bare metal then I would start by pressure washing and degreasing the whole truck using a turbo tip, that will get rid of oily surfaces and get out all the loose paint/debri in the hard to reach areas. I spent about 1 1/2hrs doing mine...
