Yes, anytime Bill. Comes with ear muffs too (actually not too bad).
It has the Allison 4 speed auto behind it & straight exhausts all the
way out the rear bumper.

Guess what? Got in Sunday night after T'gvg all working well ... now
the dash, parking, nor clearance lights will work. Seems to be a
section of the headlight switch gone bad. Call Earl at BB or is there
another source?? 1991.

Steve,

I had my lights go out on the road on night.
I removed the light switch and very gently bent the contacts out to get
a better connection, seems after 13 years they get a little straightend
out. They have worked great for two years now. Hope this helps.

Steve
If yours is like mine I just went through that. Mine wasn't working & I put a new switch in. It worked a few times then it quit again I found that moving wires in the front of the dash it would come on. I finally figured it was a wire in one of my cannon plugs. It seem to be working good now.

The headlight switches are a weak spot (mine is 'out' for now, too).
My temporary workaround was to wire in a switch that supplies power
to the appropriate relays that turn on the clearance, dash, and
parking lights.

You can order a new switch from BB or from one of the BB school bus
distributors. There may be another source as the switch is from a
third party, but I haven't identified it.

I had this happen to me last year and I was able to get a new
switch at NAPA. It is a stock item for them.
