    Look good.....I have a set around here someplace that I took off me original bumper.

    Everyone here uses the twist lock type....I don't want them sticking out on the truck.

    Not that I usually need them but ya gotta be prepared.

    Sweet. While you're at it, fab me up a pair for the rear of my trailer.

    I bought a quick connect flag kit for the front bumper at a petro I think it was. Came with the mounting brackets and flags. Price tag was like $125 I think? Paid for it with loyalty points, no way I'd pay that price with actual money.

    All the DT 360,408,466 inline pump, rotory pump, and early E models were fantastic till egr around 2005ish.

    As far as I'm concerned you can't improve on early electronic engines. They are mechanical operated, and electronically monitored. Improved mpg, engine life and stopped bad drivers mostly from melting engines down. Its been down hill since 2003.

    With that said, I love the mechanical engines. Would love to have a BC. But I'd never put a modern employee in one.

    Sorry to go on to long. But the topic came up with the elevator boys today. Most of these new epa engine issues could be solved with shorter oil change intervals and higher rpm. Same with the cars and pickups.

    It fell on a Saturday this year, so people got Friday off for the holiday. Same with Sunday being a holiday, usually you get Monday. I have advocated for years that all holidays need to be recognized on Friday....date be ######!
