Its been a while. You get older, things take longer. I am finally done with the upholstery. The sewing is the easier part. Making panels and...
No problem. After seeing that thread I had to build one also. I love fabricating, but it is a lot of work, but cheap and rewarding. Reyn

They recommend a light syncromesh the weight of 5w30. I think because of all the needle bearings, the oil would not flow well if it was heavier.
Thanks so much Looking forward to seeing yours done.

I have smithys on my Impala. I love the sound. Don't know how they compare to Walkers
Got it. Thanks for the help.
Yes I did. I don't quite understand your explanation. Sometimes it takes a while for things to sink in this old brain.
I have got this also. It makes sense now. I don't get the dash switch part. I think it would work the way it is. I really appreciate the help. I...
That is a good question. It will work if I just use the latching relay. Then the full power of the lights would go through the light switch and I...
That is exactly the way I had mine set up. The latching relay is the dimmer. There is power to the headlights already as the dimmer with a...
It is the same switch. I am using 56, 56a and 56b with grounds. The headlight fuse powers the headlights through the relays so I have to run the...
