    Truck conversion meet and greet rally

    It doesn't matter to me. My interest is to meet the folks who helped me with my TC purchase and continue to learn from other TC owners. I would like to see it stay TC (and maybe HH) only.

    Truck conversion meet and greet rally

    I like the location. However, we must dance around the break schedules of three different schools. I won't chime in on the scheduling, I'll just keep my fingers crossed that y'all pick a date that we can work in.

    Chariot 40,000 pound pintle

    I think that is the same as renegades. When I wanted to make a change from the std 2 5/16" ball I called customer service and they had parts send me a 2" receiver version with that same slide in plate. They may have other options available.

    Side Marker/Turn Signals - the lighting fetish continues

    I was specifically wondering if anyone had replaced the 3157 bulb based marker light or sleeper light with a led as bright. I can't seem to find anything as brlght in a Maxxima light, which is what everything else on the rig is. I just have the "sleeper" light and a side marker/turn signal...

    Side Marker/Turn Signals - the lighting fetish continues

    Ok, my Renegade has two excellent cab/side marker/turn signals. Unfortunately, they are the only incandescent fixtures remaining on the exterior and the lower ones are susceptible to water intrusion. The lenses are also badly oxidized. Unfortunately, I cannot find a suitable led replacement...

    Morimoto Fog lights-free to good home

    I have half a pair of Deep Space lighting fog lights designed to fit a Freightliner Coronado or Columbia. One of the lights has a broken mount, but everything works. I could not get in touch with Dave at Deep Space for a replacement. Morimoto wanted nearly full price for a replacement...

    LED Headlights

    Drove to Charleston and back last week. Got a chance to try out the new lights for a couple hours. I was very pleased to see that my field of view was much better illuminated on low beam, and the high beams just create a white lit corridor, highway width and over 125yds long! The best news...

    Heated Floors?

    I'll look into it. Thanks

    LED Headlights

    Yes. I figured that ring is all that holds any sealed beam bulb in place, so long as the fixture is fitted properly. With regard to adjustment, I never touched the adjustment knob on the mounts. When I took the truck in for inspection, the guy said they were right on the money. Like you, I...

    I apologize. I did not know that the photos on that site were not public. I also do not know why this site suddenly turns all of my photos landscape:confused:

    LED Headlights

    Fog lights are in! The JW Speaker fog lights are in now and should complete my light show for some time. I am not crazy about the way the speakers install. I actually called them and sent them dry fit photos to be sure I was going about it the right way. However, they are in. They really...

    Heated Floors?

    First, we don't have tile, we have carpet. Dated, but in perfect condition, brown carpet. Considering upgrading to Luxury Vinyl Tile, with an electric heating element pad under the floor. It doesn't appear to add much thickness. I confess that I saw the electric floor heating on a youtube...

    Heated Floors?

    Toying with the idea of a flooring and furniture upgrade. Just learned that heated floors become an option when replacing the flooring. The class A motor coach set raves about it on the rv forums, but those guys think everything in their bus is the greatest thing since pockets on pants. How...

    LED Headlights

    FWIW, Headlightrevolution.com has a very informative video on their youtube channel about led bulb upgrades. They cover quite a few options, pros and cons, etc. May be worth a watch if you have time.

    LED Headlights

    The Freightliner dealer blessed the alignment of my new headlights last week. If you are going down the road and someone's leds are shining in your eyes, it ain't me:D JW Speaker 6045 fog lights and brackets have arrived. I hope I can get them installed with minimal modifications.

    Deepspacelighting...What happened?

    Dave quit responding to my inquiries about lights for my Coronado last year, so I installed JW speakers (as you may have seen in my lighting post). Now one of my Deepspacelighting fog lights is broken, and I can't get any response via phone or e-mail. I've made multiple attempts. The lights...

    LED Headlights

    Thanks. I can't wait to get them on the road. Now I have discovered that one of the Deep Space Lighting Morimoto Fog lights has broken! It appears that the adjustment mechanism broke off. Oh well. If it is mechanical, it breaks.

    LED Headlights

    I thought the stock Grote headlights were flimsy, until I started cutting on them! I destroyed every bit in a new Dremel set to get these things cut apart and fitted! I don't know what type of plastic those things are, but they easily stand up to hammer blows and cut off wheels! Since they...

    What sort of setup did you use to lock it in and out?

    LED Headlights

    Believe it or not, I'm still monkeying with these *^% headlights! Thought I could tear down one of the stock Grote headlight assemblies and install the JW speaker light into it, but the Grote assembly is all plastic, and the JW speaker light is all heavy cast aluminum. I don't believe there is...

    in the details it indicates that only the halos are LED. The main light source is still halogen? They certainly are nice looking!
