What's goin' on peeps! I know it's been forever since I've been on. Forgive me. But I had to come visit my home forum tonight. I just got my new heater hose bracket from Rosewood Diesel Shop. It reminded me that there are still people like Jim out there still helping us OBS guys out. So I wanted to come and make sure y'all knew there was such an animal out there, and in turn give a shout out to our forum sponsor. Thanks for still getting it done for us Jim.

 

Oh, and I want to add, the fit is AWESOME!!!! Edges chamfered so it doesn't cut the hose. Lock shoulder so it doesn't spin all stupid when you tighten it. AND.......AND the Allen bolts are SAE not metric.....Merica! This really is a slick little piece and I highly recommend it.

 

I'm right there with you Cody. I got one of these from Jim a few weeks back and it just gives me the warm fuzzies every time I pop the hood and see it in there (it's the little things that do it for me).



This is a great little piece it really is. You can tell that it was made with the details in mind because everything about how it fits is absolutely perfect.

It sure beats the old sheet metal piece, that's for sure!



I know Jim said he hasn't had time to put this on his website yet, so if anyone else wants one it's probably best to contact Jim directly about it. It really is great to be able to support guys like Jim that are supporting our little market segment by bringing new and custom products to the market to keep these old trucks alive and kicking. With parts like this available, it's possible to make these trucks even better than new.

 

Well Welcome back! lol
I bet Travis gets you the updates when necessary (not like there are many updates to old trucks).

I saw this on Facebook a while back. It is a quality piece for sure.

 

I might ask for a pair of those for Christmas!

 

I'm gonna say it again..... I hate you.... LOL. Looks pretty good though. I'll put in a call for one at some point I guess.

 

I don't need one!
That IH water pump makes servicing the HPOP a lot less messy. Not that I have needed to service the HPOP since the T500 went in tho....

 

I think it is great that there are guys out there like Jim still making parts for our trucks. I have one of those too that Bill fabed up. I still think he needs to open up a shop full time.

 

Still running the fuel bowl Cody!!??

 

Looks like another one of those awesome little doodads that you can't live without once you find out it exists. I never even thought of replacing mine but might have to get one now! How much does Jim charge for it?

 

I was thinking he should throw one in with each premium injector rebuild

 

I second that except I just got mine 2 weeks ago

 

I just installed mine last week! had I known I would have had one shipped with the injectors.

 

sooooo much better than the original. Installed mine today.



Thanks for helping keep our rigs going Jim.

 

Hmm,my stix haven't shipped...I may add that on. It's really a nice piece
