Re: Frankentruck
Lockout cable bracket Version2 is a success! Got the correct angle at the clamp to point the cable in the direction that worked the best to keep the lockout lever in either lockout or overdrive. I used a piece of metal that I cut off of the front license plate bracket to make the lockout cable bracket.
I discovered this license plate bracket while I was cleaning out my 67-72 truck bed trailer several years ago. I kept it around and finally cut and hammered it to center the license plate in the bumper without drilling extra holes in the bumper.
And last but not least, I replaced the taillight bezels with a set that I picked up at the junkyard over the weekend. This set is much nicer than the old ones that had a hole or two and had a bunch of primer overspray.
