Thanks

Frasier, I'm an SW1
Are you currently home on base?
my father was a lt in the USN on a AE-12 (USS WRANGEL) back in 1968
he was stationed in Viet Nam.

BTW, your truck is way cool great color

The side terminals may be lesser than the top post, but the blue top adds two threaded rods next to the top post. We both could be right.

Toyota Hauler, I'm currently stationed in Gulfport MS. and probally will be here til I retire. My father is retired Army and did a few tours himself in Vietnam. You got a nice truck too, I'm now saving for the lift and tires for mine since i got a big purchase item out of the way. How do you get a signature at the bottom of your post? Thanks

Just some info, I got the 07 piaa catalog and they are making a new light that looks incrediable for Superduties. From the picture it looks like it would fit in the space next to winch carrier in the opening of the bumper.
