    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    I wasn't sure it was a re-paint, though I guess with the age and the typical fading these trucks have, I suppose it probably is. Yeah, I was surprised at the TH400. I'm 99% sure all of these trucks originally had a 700R4 or 4L60. I've seen quite a few ads though claiming TH400. I'm close to...

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    Woah! I didn't see this one when I was looking! I'm adding that to my list. I found the red/silver one in Pasadena, it's already on my list. Rust is really hit or miss around here. Some have more rust than steel, others vice-verse. I found this one in New Jersey...

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    I'm in northeastern Maryland (the corner where MD, DE, and PA meet). My price range is $2000 or less. It's going to be a pseudo farm truck. We're moving into a new house, and this would be our utility vehicle. Something to run to the local Home Depot or Lowe's, and to move dirt/mulch/etc...

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    Yeah, yeah. rub it in lol :) I wish I could find a rust-free truck up here. That's why I said I'd almost be willing to travel to Texas to get one. I did find one in North Austin that's in my price range. Anyone wanna work together on getting it? Operation: Truck Retrieval lol

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    I've found a couple in my area (MD, DE, PA, NJ) after just a few hours searching. I'm in contact with two guys so far. There's not too many RCLBs though. Texas is a goldmine for these trucks. I'm almost tempted to fly down and buy one there. At least I know it'll probably have less rust in it...

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    Hey guys, thanks for all of your help. I'm afraid I have some bad news however. I'm not going to be able to get this truck after being sure I'd be able to pick it up this weekend. Some things happened, and I'm not happy about it. This is the second OBS I've lost in the last 6 months. If anyone...

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    Honestly, that's what I should do with my second (the future add-on) power outlet. I was only going to put my double USB port charger into it anyway. Where did you buy your USB power outlet?

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    Richard, thank you so much! Do you mind if I ask you what relay you used? And if you used a diode in your circuit? I'm primarily using this for power to a bluetooth AUX-In (after I do the AUX-In radio conversion) and one to two phone chargers. I was going to change the factory cigarette...

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    My truck is an 89. Although I think the 88-94 trucks are the same. This actually helps a lot. Thanks! Luckily, I won't have to watch out for the airbag wire. My truck doesn't have one. Someone on another board mentioned the possibility of just changing the + wire on the cigarette lighter from...

    Early OBS 12V Accessory Power

    Hi, This is a two part question. 1. Does anyone know how to (or has already) add 12V power outlets that turn off when the key is off, but are on when the key is in ACC or RUN positions? I would assume you could just tap into the interior fuse box for accessory power... 2. Does...
