Google Ads, which supplies the "generic" ads, typically uses your browser search history to select and deliver ad content. Ads such as Butch's Cool Stuff are direct sale ads and independent of any Google influences. Anyone using your computer and searches Google will impact your search history. If it is truly inappropriate, like porn, get the advertiser name and I can contact Google for removal.

Different shaped cowl. Correct, plymouth is a different body.

Electrics from Chry/Dodge/Desoto do NOT direct swap in. Need to go aftermarket.

Triangle shaped "mini" running board to transition to the wider fender.

Finding NOS extensions is impossible. Best bet is to find them in a bone yard or have the fabricated. I ended up having my pair fabricated after searching for years.

Don't think you need them. Should be a 45 degree SAE double flare fitting which doesn't use washers. Only time I have seen washers used is on banjo fittings.

If testing continues to go well probably late August.

Since i'm dealing with this issue on my boat trailer I will give you my 0.02 worth. If the metal is rusted through, replace it and provide protection moving forward. If it is just rusty but still sound I recommend a product called ZeroRust. Its not a "converter" type product, but just provides excellent rust protection. Wire brush off the old rust, use their etch product then coat with the red oxide primer. Then you can topcoat with another Zerorust color or another type of topcoat. My boat goes in the ocean and is drysailed, which means we haul it out and goes directly on the trailer and is washed down. You never get all the salt residue and rust happens. Over the last 7-8 years trailer sections coated with ZeroRust have not rusted, period. Other sections coated with Rustoleum or standard paint have failed to the point I'm replacing the 6" steel channel the keel rests on. YMMW.

And I would add a factory Parts Book is nearly as valuable!

First these aren't split ring rims. The are lock ring rims still used on many trucks today. Take them to a truck tire shop. They know how to properly mount them.

It's a 1 ton so the model would be "D".

Maybe member Lowoiler?

They float the grounds so neg goes to ignition on. Pos is any ground and correct, neg to light switch

and I wanted to loop you all in. Currently the site runs forum software from Invision Power Services (IPS). Our current version is 3.4.x and it provides the functionality for most of the site including the forums, photo gallery, store, chat, blogs and downloads. I use third party products for the classified section, links and the member map. Approximately 18 months ago IPS announced a new 4.X version of their packages. This is a complete rewrite of the all the core software using more modern development tools and mythologies. Plus it provides additional functionality for tablet and smartphone users. Because it is a total rewrite the publishers of third party packages have to rewrite their packages also. Along with this announcement 18 months ago IPS informed customers 12 months after the release of 4.x they would stop all development work and bug fixes and declare the 3.4.X product as EOL (End of Life). They would continue to support the 3.4.X version for another 12 months providing only critical security patches and updates. So currently we are about 6 month out before the software becomes totally unsupported. My current plan is to do the 4.X upgrade in the late August or early September timeframe. I have already been doing testing for months to make sure the process is smooth but I can tell you it is not an easy or straightforward upgrade. I suspect it may take several days. So if it ain't broke don't fix it, right? Unfortunately the internet is not a friendly place and sites like this are constantly under attack by hackers and it is essential to maintain updated systems for site integrity. To give you a feel it is not unusually to see over 100 hack attempts per night from China, Russian and here in the USA. So the upgrade is not an option, but required. Good news is we get some upgrades too! Drag and drop picture posting, better performance, better and faster search, what is called "responsive design" which means it formats correctly for smartphones and tablets without having to use a specific app and more. In working with it on my test bed system it address many issues members have raised in the past and overall will be a positive update. Which brings me to the last issue, classified ads. First as mentioned above the classified section is provided by a third party publisher. It is nicely integrated into the site commerce system so I can easily sell classified ads. (Part of the reason it is so well integrated is it was written by an IPS programmer as his own product) The bad news is the system has still not been updated (pretty much all the other 3rd party products used have been) and he doesn't know if and when it will be ready for release. If this situation continues (and I see not reason it won't) the classified section will go away in the near future. To address this issue starting July 16, 2016 you will no longer be able to place a new classified ad. The existing ads will continue to run to their scheduled termination with the last one closing out August 13, 2016. At that point in time the classified page will no longer be available for viewing. Also on July 16, 2013 a new forum section will open for classified text ads. They are for individuals only, no images allowed, and will run for 30 days. After 30 days they will auto delete. At the same time we are introducing a new policy where commercial ads will not be allowed in the classified section. So if you run a cottage or garage business on the side, provides a service, manufacture a product for sale or have lists of products you want to sell you will need to move into a banner ad. Commercial ads will be deleted. Reposting will get you banned. Think of the classified ads as the digital equivalent for the personal ads in the back of your paper. Banner ads start at $35.00 month and I'm delivering you over 4 millions hits a month. The banners ads are a bargain and if you don't have a website with the purchase of an ad we will provide a landing page. If the third party publisher comes through at the last minute I will not start the separate forum section for classified ads, but the policy regarding commercial ads will be the guideline moving forward. Change are coming and if you have any suggestion please add them to this thread. You can see with the IPS software is all about by visiting their website. GT

If you can post them here also. A lot are interested in this mod.

YnZ or Rhode Island Wiring. The Links page is your friend.

These are so cool!

First make sure they have the correct 6 volt bulbs installed. Next make sure the contacts on the old bulbs are clean and shinny. Lastly make sure you have a good ground connection. When testing I run an external group wire (14 ga) directly from the battery to the bulb to verify the gound is good. Also if you have a volt meter measure the voltage at the battery and then at the lamp socket. They should be almost identical.

First make sure your email address in your profile is valid and correct.

No. It's a separate 3rd party module and it not a "forum" so it does't get picked up by the new content feature.

And don't forget you can subscribe to the classified section and get email notifications when new ads are posted.
