I've not done the conversion although I would like to. I would think you could find one that fits at a salvage yard. I would get the t state relay with it and see it that would work. I read about it being done.

Looking forward to the new wheel/tire setup!

Big smiles when you experience that success!

Oldred = 1 hit wonder. Wished he would post back here or respond to one of us.
