New RTV - Thanks For All The Advice

OK Fred,

Here's the first pic.
It's the grey bar below the ceiling that has the pistol, mirrors and such attached.

Here's the next pic.
It shows how it's mounted.
2" muffler clamp tied around the front ROPS.
A 3/4" clamp then screws onto the lower remaining threads of the muffler clamp. The steel pipe is a 4' piece of gas line pipe. Steel caps on either end. Paint it and voila! It's not as purdy as OEM stuff if you look at it real close but for the $15 invested, it was the best thing I could come up with. I got everything from Lowe's or HD.

Andrew,

Took a couple pics for you as well.

This one shows the back light (just above the muffler) that I installed using the pigtail from the spreader.

And for anyone that doesn't like the OEM horn (mine sounded pretty bad), see attached.

Thanks Brian, it looks good. I'm still gonna wait and see how much light I get from the rear worklights out in the field. BTW the picture of your accessory pipe mount looks a lot like the Kolpin boot mount on the side of your bed.

Is one of those a grunt tube and the other a bleat?

Brian,

Is this the right pic? I think this is for your gun boot?

I don't have my secret decoder ring on right now.. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Can you rephrase that in layman's terms?

And you thought I jerry-rigged that pipe... Here's the mount I built on the side of the box for the gun mount. It's actually some heavy-duty hardware that was used to attach some large computer equipment to a pallet. Pardon the paint pealing but that coated steel they used doesn't accept paint very well.

Here's the Kolpin gun boot. The large carriage bolts fit perfectly into the grooves in the previous picture. Since the grooves are a bit long, I can change the pitch of the case.
