Thanks Paul i will check it out i have a light in the dash that turns on when you apply the brakes so i will trace that down as well and see if will work so i don't have to run a wire to the front and then all the way back i would be nice just to run one wire but with my luck i will have to but as long as i'm doing it i'm going to add a few more things like driving lights and a strereo in the cab and a air horn and CB

do you know where to get exhaust parts i have a crack in the junction where the donut is on the turn down passenger side


thanks again John

I forgot one minor detail. Do happen to know how many amps are needed to run the brake control? You may have to run a wire from the front electrical panel to the rear. According to my schematics, the stoplight switch is 15 amp, as are the other lights. Do you have an electrical schematic?

I have seen those donuts on eBay. You may have a DD distributor near you, check with a local truck shop.

I'm sure Clifford has one in his shop somewhere! You might contact him.

I posted a reply to your post in the Mall. I really like mine! And besides, they just look cool! :D

I just checked the pics you posted and noticed you don't have a destination sign indent in the middle lower front like mine. The one I have has two ears on it that are bolted through the bottom of the inset into the windshield frame. No sure how you would mount one on yours, but I'm sure it can be done. I also have a smalll brace that runs from the center front of the visor down to the middle pillar, helps to give it more security when traveiling.
