I'd look at using a small 12V battery (ie. motorcycle) and trying to hide it in front of the dash. Power your light switch from it and use 12V LED lights.
Biggest issue is that you'd probably have to put a trickle charger on the 12V battery after using it since you wouldn't be charging that battery.

Jaybird, the dozers and parts definitely don't seems to be as plentiful up here as in other parts of the country and canada. There's a guy on here "HowardYoder" that I got a lot of good parts from. He might have the springs you need. I used Lavoy for as much of the new parts as I could. I got some s...

Well guys, I honestly am not 100% sure if it was dirt or carbon or what it was. I suspected dirt because I installed the intake elbow between the air cleaner and intake manifold. Not fully thinking, I didn't check to see if it was clean, probably because typically the things I work on don't sit for ...

I had a chance to check a few things out tonight. You guys can look at the pictures and video linked below. We've come to the conclusion that nothing is broken in the cam or crank and it is still correctly in time. We are fairly confident that the issue is, it sucked a significant amount of dirt int...

I think for now, I'll just let them hang off there like those guys who hang a sack off their hitch. You may have a truck with balls, but I got a tractor with about a dozen clevises hanging off mine! :lol: :lol: made my morning. That instrument cover/panel can be had on ebay, as well as some diesel ...

Seems like something is wore or bad in your spool, causing you to have to have it in the "sweet spot" so it will raise. I could be wrong though. I'm still trying to figure out why mine will raise the front end and hold it up, however when the blade is up in the air it can't hold itself up and will d...
