L6060 Cab Questions

[buck12]

My dealer recommended the upgraded alternator (90a), but I declined. I ordered front and rear lights, rear glass defroster only (not quarter glass). After switching the work lights to led, and replacing all bulbs to led, fully lit I'm drawing about 27 amps.

That's not including the defroster grid which I'm sure is a big load. With all lights and defroster on the voltage still remains between 13.5-13.8v, which tells me I haven't quite exceeded the alternator capacity. Anyway, after almost 5 years of use I haven't had any battery or alternator problems. I probably should do the alternator upgrade though.

Do you happen to have the part number for the headlight bulbs.

I misspoke about swapping out ALL of the lighting...
I have not swapped out the headlights or corner lights to led because I was never able to confirm the base type. I'm somewhat certain that they are H4. My listed amperage numbers were with the OEM headlights on and the corner lights off.
I'm currently waiting on a set of led replacement headlamps advertised as compatible on eBay for about $30 for 2.

Thanks. Swapping out the front and rear work lights to LED is on my to do list. Keep us posted on the headlight change.

I should have them soon. The led front and rear work lights was the single most useable modification I've made to my L4060. They are 54 watts each, and turn night into day.

My setup is better, but bang for the buck & amount of effort I'd go with those mini-bars if I had to do things over. I went to overkill. Great light, but it was a lot of work. Whatever you do get some decent LED bars or mini-bars if you work at night at all. The stock headlights & cab lights suck.

Do you mind sharing where you bought those lights and the part number?

They are inexpensive eBay lights with no part number or manufacturer info. I will say they appear well made with no issues over the past several years.

I can confirm that the head lights are H4 and the corner lights are 7440.

I would avoid the real high output LED types with a heat sink behind them, as the heat sink would interfere with dust boots on the reflector assembly. The ones linked to on eBay look like they would work fine.

My 52" bars were no name stuff off Amazon. Under $75 each. Cheap no-name big & small bars are on Amazon, Ebay & every auto parts or rural supply store. Cheap ones are usually noisy on RF (they jam your radio reception). They are a cheap commodity item at this point, unless you get some really expensive ones like Ridgid.

My front bar has a leak & foged up. I just undid a bunch of the screws at the bottom so it leaks out as well as in now. Will replace it with a better one that doesn't kill my radio if/when moisture kills it.
