    Flush mount 3w billet led bolt type rock lights

    I don't see any place on the invoice creation page where you can "add 3.92%" If "adding a percentage fee to cover the transaction prcessing fee" is against paypal policy, why on earth would they give an option to do it? This is sounding more fishy with every post.

    5x8 Cargo Trailer Conversion

    Looks like a fun project. I wired in some backup lights so I can run them manually with a switch in the trailer, or when I hit reverse with any of my tow rigs. his way I can use them as loading lights and backup lights. Spokane area... KLR... :-) I am in Spokane and have a KLR and a DRZ400.

    I'm friends with both 05TJLWBRUBY and TenaciousTJ. I've seen the trailer, it's called the "bombproof trailer build on another forum" it is practically is bombproof. Together, the tent and trailer would make an awesome overland adventure setup.

    New Project '78 GMC Jimmy

    Not many GM trucks I've ever seen had a tach in place of the fuel gauge. It seems to be a rare option.

    New Project '78 GMC Jimmy

    It's also the version with a removable pinion support, which means it has a 10.5" ring gear instead of the smaller ring gear. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10.5%22_Corporate_14_Bolt_Differential Look closely at the pics and you can see the bolts on the housing near the pinion shaft.

    got myself a 1985 M1028A3 Dually CUCV with 28.xxx miles

    I agree. I watch the Government auction sites all the time, and I see many CUCVs with under 40,000 miles on them all the time. I see duece and a halfs with less than 50k, and 5 ton trucks with even fewer miles.... some with 20k.

    73-87 Chevy/GMC Pickup's

    I went to a wrecking yard and found a replacement portion of the wire harness, as well as a trailer "T" style pigtail, and fixed the shoddy wiring. I replaced the 6 pin plug with a 7 pin, and put it in the bumper where the 6 pin was, which is where the factory puts the license plate light:
