Advice on a W900A

My W900A had the high beam lights switched from the standard round sealed beams to a housing with replaceable halogen bulbs. No idea how well they worked (or even if they did) because the wiring was so ratty I was afraid to turn them on lol.

 

Yeah I read another thread on here about rewiring the original headlights and that helps along with new housings but I just like the look of the led lights. Half tempted to try to figure out a way to use the same light I have in my harley lol it’s the same size bright as hell dot approved and half the price

 

Here ya go sir. Also attached some more pictures and also a pretty cool find under the passenger seat (extensive records including a motor overhaul done in 1992 lol and what I believe is the original build sheet) not 100% sure what some of my switches and gauges are for specifically the gauge on top of the dash and the knob and switch by the glove box. But also the switch by the hillbilly cruise

 

There's a lot of potential there. Looks like its in fairly decent shape for its age.

 

Not bad other than the hack job frame stretch

 

There is a pretty good salvage yard in Terre Haute. Lot of Petes, maybe some KW as well. Give them a call. If you go, be aware they are on east coast time. Went there one saturday, hoping to have an hour to browse before they close at noon. With the time change, only got 10 minutes. Waste of a morning...

I bet the gauge on the dash is tied to your rear air bags. That and the PTO control is a pretty good clue that they were running an end-dump using a wet kit to run the dump and the gauge to help guess on how heavy to load the trailer without being overweight. There may even be a second psi gauge to read the trailer air pressure thru a dis-connectable air line. That is how we ran our dump. Is the 5th wheel pinned or pinnable?

No there’s not a lock on the 5th wheel but someone also recently put the back half of an 06 Freightliner on it so who knows. That’s what I’ll be using it for too so that will work great if that’s the case

 

Do you happen to know what the switches and the knob is all for that I pointed out earlier? Or does your truck have the same ones?
