Amazon sells it. About a dollar/foot. I've used these venders. I've had them on my cargo cover for over a year and no UV issues. https://www.amazon.com/CleverDelights-Black-Solid-Rubber-Cord/dp/B01MTB9M8S/ref=sr_1_3 And the hooks...

Ah, bummer. At least some of the fuel cans currently on eBay aren't as bad as they have been in recent years.

And Tractor Supply sells Scepter water cans. I don't recall if the openings are threaded the same, but I think so. But I see Scepter fuel cans on eBay for $50

Looks viable. You might consider an outer horizontal capture plate on the lower part. Keep thigs lined up during any lateral shift. ie: capture the upper part within the lower part.

MWM sells them and at $30 it's one of their very few reasonably priced items. (of course shipping is likely $90)

Apparently it is a well known Dakar truck. It now resides in the DAF museum.

It's a "Push-Me-Pull-Ewe"

(but it seems it is for sale)

Yeah, I do most of my short overnights to fish at the N. Fish Pass jetty (S of Port-A inside the Mustang Island State Park). PINS is for when I'm feeling more adventurous (but it's a full tank of fuel down and back, which has been a wee bit more expensive the past four years).

Nice So you pushed all the way to Mansfield jetties. That's as far off the beaten trail as you can travel on the Island (no 7/11's down there, not even a fresh water source, you're on you own beyond the occasional Park Ranger patrol and shark fisherman's camp). For those that don't know that's...

Thanks

I was under the impression that it was dual and the output number represented the 24v side. So the 100 were 100/40, the 200 were 200/50, and the 260 were 260/140. It was the reason I never looked into the 200a for my old AO truck (I was leaning towards a big 24va with a step down for the 12)...

^THIS ^THIS ^THIS a thousand times THIS 100a on these trucks is anemic (simply idiotic when run with four TL6's). My 1960's 1600cc air-cool VW bug motors have more amperage. Many owners don't realize that the 100a dual voltage Niehoff put's out 100a to the 24 side and 40-50a to the 12v side...

Yeah, out of state for the holidays and doing a little extended visit to see some family. Happy New Year, bud !

Im out of town for another week but I'll take a look when I get back. So far the only thing I've tossed up on the screen that didn't work was the fuel usage/mpg stuff. I've not looked into if it's just not available or if it's just borked. I don't know if I tested EGT but all the other stuff...

Looking at the video, that "disabled at grades over 4%" seems like exactly what is going on if I understand it correctly. Neutral at Stop is clearly not working with my truck. As you say, could be a number of causes I suspect. I'm going to look into it further, but I'm not gonna lose sleep...

Thanks. I also confirmed that it does this facing either way on an incline. No other issues with shifting or the AWD observed. I'll have to do some lookign into it. It's been like that since I owned the truck. It's 100% a trans thing and not brakes. I can feel the trans hold and release.

Odd. I'll have to do a video as I said. Mine does not free roll forward on a mild incline (never has). It's not brakes, because as soon as I shut off the ignition it will roll as you guys describe. I figure that it must be the trans that's holding it in place in N. Next time you are about in...

I just assumed it was a thing with the upgraded trans. I'll take a video after the holidays.

He's talking about the trans. For those that don't know, the A1R trucks have an odd sort of "park" feature in that model Alison. My truck sits on an inclined driveway (typically backed in). With the ignition on or the truck running, I can put it in neutral and release the brakes and the truck...
