    12V wiring question

    Hi, Quick question for you electrical gurus. Wiring up dual 55w halogen reverse lights. Can I put the switch on the negative (black) wire instead of the hots (2 in this case, red/white) and run them directly to the battery? I find it a pain to hook up the switches to the heavier gage wire as...

    So whats up with my transmission?

    So I guess the weird shifting is from the Torque convert to 4th gear. Done it about a half dozen times now, usually when towing a load, other then once or twice. This is a different issue from my OP, which is from 3rd to torque conv. Maybe Im just confusing the tranny some how. Cheers

    So whats up with my transmission?

    Mine is definatly shifting in to 4th. I am going to do the flush asap, but I noticed something else which is a bit odd. When speeding up, some times just after it shifts in to 5th gear, it goes back down in to 4th (reving high) and then quickly back in to 5th. Any explinations on this? Ive only...

    Plow weight on an 04 PSD

    This thing is so much better then the wide outs, you can control the wings 150* so with the add on wings (9" extensions on the hydralic wings) you can do an 11'4" straight blade, 8'6'' box pusher, 7'11" road transport or anywhere in between. Its crazy, good price too.

    NOISE!

    Dont do both sides, wait until the other one breaks. Thats a cheap price, around here it runs you about $1100.
