    Now all you need is a nice led beacon light on top of that box.

    That place is for emergency use only. I bought my light bars from truckntow.com

    truckntow or awdirect are better spots to get the flashy lights.

    I was just kidding guys....I will order my light thru my cousin, he is LEO (along with 8 other family members) and gets a heck of a discount thru Whalen since he is the guy who buys all the emergency equipment for the dept.

    Not really fond of lifting 80 lb tarps overhead to a headache rack. Have mine strapped to step, Tri Pac. one over batteries and one in a side box. I do put my smoke tarp up above. Saves my back!:biggrin_25512:

    Yeah, I got most of my equipment today and the tarps still do not fit in the rack, so I got one strapped above my step and the other one on the passenger floor.

    Got my first load today as well, some steel building trusses going to Purdue University. FUN FUN
