Remove the bulb end support clips and move them over the appropriate distance.
The backing place is fairly thin so the screws start easily.
Just don’t use a long screw even though the space behind is clear of wires directly behind that location.
That way you don’t have to worry about...
Perfect!
Fast
Will work in freezing weather
......and will have the job finished before the eggs and bacon go into the cast iron skillet!!
Your hired!!
System will get installed later this coming week.
Snow/sleet is predicted for Monday and temps barely above freezing for a couple of days after that.
No sense of doing the install in nasty weather.
No issues at all.
They have been flawless.
The MH bulbs were the ones designed for and originally installed in the unit.
This is according to original Specs/documentation I’ve found online.
I think I’ve posted a picture of it also.
Not sure why the receiving units later changed over to...
Changed oil and filter.
Mobil1 Delvac 10W40
Air and fuel filters were not due yet.
Cold front coming so I did a detailed inspection all over and underneath truck.

I’m ready.
It seems like, to me, I drive my M1008A1 a lot.

Replaced starter and engine cranked faster than ever
Just a thought..........
Used to be to a certain extent, but that info is no longer available.
Unless you find unit bumper markings, you may never know it’s recent history.
Some guys were lucky and found maint. paperwork in their trucks after auction.
To know the trucks entire history, you’ll need a time machine.
Do whatever works for you.
Personal preference
Your truck, Your rules.
I personally like mine stock.
That’s me.
Recently bought a lot of NOS CUCV resistors so I can change them now as required or on a maintenance schedule.
I don’t really care what someone else does to their truck(s).
I...
PEX is all the same I believe, just different colors.
I’ve had mine installed for over 8 months and hardly a mark on it.
Have you adjusted your door post?
I know the shelter is designed to keep signals out.
Wanting to see what would work to bring signal in.
I was also thinking about doing the two antennas setup as I mentioned earlier.
It seems logical and is a lot less expensive than the commercial booster setups on the market.
Think I will...
As mentioned earlier, I know there are devices to bring service inside.
What I don’t know is which ones truly work and which ones don’t.
I know a few guys that have used them without much success.
Maybe a member here has built their own system and would share how it was done.
