[QUOTE="ChrisCo, post: 1568089, member: 18105"] I'd planned to pick up a spare ever since I did the conversion, but just never got around to it. Now I'll pick up a couple more to have around...at least until I manage to find time/space/$$$ to start working on shoe-horning Carhart's ol' 5VZ under the hood lol I haven't checked yet -- you have a build thread for the 'runner? --- Cow update --- It's running again after (:Bonk:) swapping in a new ignition module...and fixing the battery cable that started to melt (from me using the starter+crawler to get it back into it's parking spot). After using the receiver-mounted winch from my trailer on the back of the Cow a while back, I decided to permanently mount a winch on the back. I was at Tractor Supply day before yesterday and found one of their 4500lb ATV winches on the clearance shelf for $94 ($105 less than the new ones sitting on the shelf about 15 feet away). Yep, I snagged it. Since I'm using the Cow to move crap around the yard these days (namely, logs and wood slabs), I'm planning on building a gin pole type of setup for the back. I've got about 30' of 2x3 (?? -- I forget exactly)x.25 rectangle tubing (courtesy my old neighbor in Redmond), so now I just need to scrounge up some heavy plate for mounting it to the truck.
