Re: Bed covers

I think it was $400-500. It was only 2 years ago but a lot has happened since then.

Re: Temp Gauge

First thing I did after replacing the consistent voltage reg was replace the sensor. Didn't work. Over it. Put the old cvr back in. I will just buy a quad gauge eventually and switch it over to 12 volt. The kits I am looking at are spendy do to the fact you replace the float, oil pressure, and temp ...

Re: Temp Gauge

forgot to up date this. Yeah I have one. Used it, an aftermarket mechanical temp gauge and a Mr. Gasket thermo radiator cap. Every one said the system is working properly. So that means the factory gauge is off. Is there any adjustment other than buying resistors from an electric supply store?

I have read that it goes from the drivers side head to the cab near the throttle cable bracket. I can't find any pictures. I just like having things in thei...

Re: Temp Gauge

Yeah I have an aftermarket temp gauge and a Mr. Gasket termocap on order. I was going to try and make sure the temp is good before messing with the stock gauge. Everything is new so I can't for see anything wrong. Just frustrating buying new parts that don't work as they should. I have adjusted fuel...

Temp Gauge

Hi. I replaced my consistent voltage regulator with a Scott Drake one Just because my fuel gauge was a little off. Fuel seems good but now my temp gauge reads high. I have tried a different temp/ speedo cluster I had laying around. Same problem. The truck has a new thermostat (180*), aluminium radia...

Re: Fresh air heater

I was Just thinking about this again and I never really got an answer. I have a manual valve to shut off the flow to the heater. My question is what is air supposed to do when the fan is running in the in position? It runs when turned on but no air comes out anywhere until I pull the switch out.

Short box saddle tanks?

Hi Guys! I am wondering if any companies made saddle tanks for short box truck? I know ford did not . The ones that sit on the outside of the frame and fill up threw the rear wheel wells. I have seen long boxes with them but, I have measured them and they are to long to stuff under my short box. I k...
