Blinker fluid

I understand that when converting to LED's this is no longer required. Is there a LED version of the Diesel Particulate Filter so we no longer need to add DEF to our late model trucks?

Muffler bearing mods required before the DEF replacement is legal, I've heard.

more importantly did you change over to summer air in the tires Also John when chaning over to leds the lower current draw will drive the Catakizmic divertter to destruction! unless you reverse the flux capasitor but then the horn will suck instead of blow and the radio will listen instead of play! good luck with that

My Cummins exhaust is organic. No GMO DEF for me.

Since you all seem to have the right answers for everything, how do you solve antenna wobble while driving, I have tried everything from going faster to only driving while the wind is not blowing, it is driving me nuts, but what really bothers me is when I am stopped it seems to subside quite a bite until the engine is turned off, then it finally settles down, I really think the wobble is interfering with my radio signal also.....

1/2 rebar bolted to hood and zip tie antenna to it usually works for me

A tennis ball attached to the antenna generally works to stop the wobble. One you get up tp speed it will hold your antenna tight to your windshield preventing the wobble. Keep extras on board becasue the only issue being if you have to stop quickly the tennis ball usually ends up bouncing off the back window of the vehicle ahead of you.

Put the antena in the back in a blind spot so you can't see it:d

Fill out this here ID-10-T form for a board stretcher, take it to supply and trade it for PU-55-Y documentation to turn in for a bucket of steam

Howdy All;

Just back from posting the mail buoy watch, then had to get some
of the newly EPA approved prop wash to clean the relative bearing
grease from my left-handed monkey wrench so I could pop the top
off of the sea-bats container.
What's the problem again ???

You were supposed to get 50 fathoms of flight line.

No, they won't but you'll never have to back into a campsite again. Just put your TV in "D" not "R".

Funny stuff on here.. I seen someone say muffler bearings. New guys in auto shop, me included back in the early 70s would get told to change out the muffler bearings on a car.
