No doubt!!! People don't appreciate what computers & modern technology allow, I wonder how many people even understand how to look stuff up in a book anymore...

THANX GARY!
I don't that I will ever need a MPC again but what you are saying is worth consideration.
Years ago, I researched MEL as few knew much about them and the LM MPC of the period was invaluable.
Now I have the desire to study the gas SD and the HT MPC would again be invaluable.
I drove (years ago) a late sixties T-950 SD tandem dump with a 534 and a 5 x 4. It had lake pipes coming out behind the step tanks unmuffled. Between that and straight stack MACKS, I can't hear a damn thing...

I created a new bracket today, as explained on Big Blue's thread: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...l#post17307602.

I see you already made a bracket - but since I took this photo for you ... here it is. It has one bolt in the fender and a locating tab that fits in an adjacent hole.
Your bracket looks stronger than the factory one

Mike - Thanks!! But that doesn't look very very strong. Maybe it doesn't need to be, but at least we know what it is supposed to look like. However, I don't see a good way to make one like it.

Thanks, Bill. You found the same number I did. But, I didn't find those sources. I'll call tomorrow and see what they want for it.
But, I'm not a purist on Big Blue, KULTULZ. How can I be with a non-stock bumper, air cleaner, intake, exhaust, etc? So, I'm thinking what I have is better than stock, so if it ain't cheap I'll probably use what I have.

I like mine OEM or better. No J C Whitney crap hanging out. Modifications are fine if done with taste/detail. Your A/CL is fine...
A minor detail like this would drive me nuts.
There is a difference from OEM and modified.

Time on FTE and on the web site. So, not as much gets done on the trucks as could get done. But, I'm doing what I want to do, and I think that is the definition of having fun. 
As for the bracket, I called the places this morning and provided the status on Big Blue's thread. But to summarize, I'll probably order it when I get the guy from Klimesh gets back with me. Thanks again, Bill.
