Adding Cruise Control?

[Mike Hohnstein]

That's a lot cheaper than the King Cruise I got. Around 900 bucks, it's built
for big trucks, might be overkill for a bird but it works OK. They give good
support.

I replaced a defective Dana unit on our 82FC with a Rostra Global Cruise.
Once I got it adjusted it works great! The best part was I could reuse the
control on the turn signal and the speed pickup. I got my unit from Brandon
Distributing Inc, 877-402-3944. When I told them what I had they knew just
what to send me. I think it was about $150. It took the best part of a day
to install but the time I tested the existing wiring and adapted to to the
new unit. The Global Cruise is electric so there is no vacuum or air
required. If you want we can talk and I will give you more details about my
installation.

Has anyone added cruise to an FC that didn't have it? Mine was removed
long ago. A few questions:

1) Where can I find a good add-on unit?
2) How hard are these to install?
3) Do they hold speed worth a damn? My FC speed fluctuates so much due
to hills and what-not, I have often wondered if cruise could even
work. What is your experience?
