If the T111 is regular ply you should seal/prime it really. OSB T111 (which I like) is pre primed (used on my garage) still looks good unpainted!

Niether is really T111, that stuff is nasty and hates moisture of any kind!

Maybe a solar panel up there for a fan and light? Heck that and an old sealed battery would last for years.

Oh, went fishing last week with the boys and saw a nice weathered privy out there;
It has the good T-111
It got great paint
Privy is going to get a solar panel (thanks Ash) and lights

It continues...

Mrs Davis is still in jail

And now the organization "Go Fund Me" which collects monies to help causes, just banned collecting money for the defense of Mrs Davis.

Our enemies are showing their hands here.

Comment about that. I tend to look at the world from a black or white viewpoint. Like Jesus did. Either it is sin or it is not. Either things are good or not. That is helpful for me and automatically rules out the evil principal of political correctness. Therefore since this go-fund-me organization is taking an active stance against something which is right it is evil in my assessment.




GoFundMe nixes fundraiser for Kentucky clerk

Site claims Kim Davis' case violates updated terms and conditions
The left-leaning fundraising site GoFundMe has declined to accept a fundraising campaign for jailed Rowan County, Kentucky, clerk Kim Davis.




 


Davis was jailed on Thursday for defying a federal court order to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges in June. She was ordered detained for contempt of court and later rejected a proposal to allow her deputies to process same-sex marriage licenses that could have prompted her release. She has become the symbol of religious opposition to the heavy-handed tactics of the “gaystapo” who are ramming same-sex marriage through at the federal level across the nation in opposition of religious conservatives.

It’s not over until it’s over — and it’s definitely NOT over! Read “Outlasting the Gay Revolution: 8 Principles for Long Term Cultural Change.”

U.S. News and World Report noted, “In sending her to jail, U.S. District Judge David Bunning ignored the American Civil Liberties Union’s request that Davis be fined to compel compliance with orders that she issue marriage licenses. ACLU attorney Heather Weaver, who is working on the case, said there was testimony about fundraising efforts on Davis’ behalf, apparently a factor in the judge’s decision not to impose financial penalties.”

Davis will remain incarcerated until she agrees to resume issuing licenses, including those for same-sex marriage.

Supporters attempted to initiate a GoFundMe campaign for her defense, but were thwarted by the site’s Terms and Conditions, which were updated on April 29 to specify the site can choose not to allow “campaigns in defense of formal charges or claims of heinous crimes, violent, hateful, sexual or discriminatory acts.”

These terms were updated in response to the massive support behind the bakery Sweet Cakes By Melissa, which declined to bake a wedding cake for a lesbian couple and were slapped with a $135,000 fine. A GoFundMe fundraiser raised over $109,000 within a few hours in support of the family before being abruptly shut down, possibly in response to the complaints of a competing bakery.

GoFundMe has developed a reputation for punitively denying fundraising efforts for causes it deems contrary to its progressive agenda. As one website put it, “GoFundMe bans Christians from trying to help other Christians.”




In a statement regarding their decision to close the Sweet Cakes account, GoFundMe wrote: “After careful review by our team, we have found the ‘Support Sweet Cakes By Melissa’ campaign to be in violation of our Terms and Conditions. The money raised thus far will still be made available for withdrawal. While a different campaign was recently permitted for a pizzeria in Indiana, no laws were violated and the campaign remained live. However, the subjects of the ‘Support Sweet Cakes By Melissa’ campaign have been formally charged by local authorities and found to be in violation of Oregon state law concerning discriminatory acts. Accordingly, the campaign has been disabled.”

However, a fast search through GoFundMe confirms the fundraising site has many requests for financial assistance from those facing legal actions, including criminal convictions. These include criminal trespassing and obstructing official business; possession of psychedelics; and prescription forgery (convicted of a third degree felony).

Most disturbingly, there is a GoFundMe campaign for aggravated sexual assault on a child (resulting in a 99-year prison sentence).

On Saturday, hundreds of people rallied in Grayson in support of Davis

ISIS smuggler: 'We will use refugee crisis to infiltrate West'

4,000 covert terrorists already in place 'awaiting' orders

Published: 13 hours ago
ISIS fighters like these, 4,000 of them, are already in place in Western nations, a jihadist smuggler confirmed.
ISIS fighters like these, 4,000 of them, are already in place in Western nations, a jihadist smuggler confirmed.

As the migrant-train standoff entered its second day in Hungary, with thousands of mostly Syrian refugees seeking passage to Germany, it’s time the West recognized this shift in Muslim populations for what it is, say American activists who have been warning of a “fifth column” for years.

Author Robert Spencer wrote Sept. 4 in Front Page Magazine, “This is no longer just a ‘refugee crisis.’ This is a hijrah.”

Hijrah is the Islamic doctrine of migration, which is a form of stealth jihad.

“To emigrate in the cause of Allah – that is, to move to a new land in order to bring Islam there, is considered in Islam to be a highly meritorious act,” Spencer wrote. He cited the following Quranic text:


“And whoever emigrates for the cause of Allah will find on the earth many locations and abundance,” says the Quran. “And whoever leaves his home as an emigrant to Allah and His Messenger and then death overtakes him, his reward has already become incumbent upon Allah. And Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful” (Quran 4:100).

And now, looking at Europe and America, a migration invasion of a much greater magnitude is underway.

Evidence of that invasion came in February when an ISIS operative confirmed what many already suspected – the Islamic State is using the refugee crisis to form a fifth column of Muslim fighters inside Western nations.

The Syrian operative claimed more than 4,000 trained ISIS gunmen have already been smuggled into Europe – hidden among innocent refugees, reported the Express, a British newspaper.




Hungary’s prime minister, Victor Orban, was lampooned in the European media Thursday for writing an op-ed in which he stated Hungary was blocking the Muslim migrants to preserve its Christian heritage.

But more European leaders should be as astute as Orban, says Clare Lopez, a senior Middle East analyst for the Center for Security Policy.

“Today, it is the nation-state system and any concept of national sovereignty that is under concerted attack by the forces of the global jihad movement,” Lopez told WND. “Jihad is not only a violent phenomenon but can be pursued by many other means, including hijra.”

The ISIS smuggler, in his 30s with a neatly trimmed black beard, revealed to BuzzFeed that the ongoing clandestine operation has been a “complete success.”

“Just wait,” he smiled. “It’s our dream that there should be a caliphate not only in Syria but in all the world and we will have it soon, God willing.”

“They are going like refugees,” he explained. “Others just go to Europe to be ready.”

The Islamic State operative spoke exclusively to BuzzFeed on the condition of anonymity and is believed to be the first to confirm plans to infiltrate Western countries, although similar statements have been made through unconfirmed ISIS Twitter accounts.

ISIS is believed to be actively smuggling covert gunmen across the 565-mile Turkish border and on to wealthier European nations, the smuggler told BuzzFeed.

He said ISIS now has more than 4,000 fighters “ready” throughout the European Union.

ISIS operatives are taking advantage of Western nations’ generosity toward refugees to infiltrate Europe, he said.

The ISIS fighters use local smugglers to blend in and travel within the ranks of a tidal wave of illegal migrants flooding into Europe, both by boat from North Africa and on land through Hungary and Austria into Germany, Belgium and Sweden.

Persecuted Christians stay behind

More than 1.5 million have migrated into Turkey alone, with millions more refugees in Lebanon, Jordan and outside their homes in Syria itself. Almost all of the migrants flooding into Europe are Muslims.

Most of the Christians have been hiding in churches and homes in the Middle East, afraid to venture to the United Nations refugee camps, which tend to be managed by Muslims, WND has previously reported.

“The Christians are afraid to venture into these camps, because they believe they will be harmed” said George Marlin of Aid to the Church in Need, a Catholic group that is sending aid to persecuted Christians in the Middle East.

From Turkish cities such as Izmir and Mersin, the Muslim refugees venture across the Mediterranean aiming for Italy, the smuggler said.

Then the majority head for the most welcoming nations – Sweden and Germany – turning themselves over to authorities and appealing for asylum.

Plans to conquer Europe from within

The jihadist smuggler said ISIS has laid ambitious plans for the future of Europe.

“It’s our dream that there should be a caliphate not only in Syria but in all the world,” he said, “and we will have it soon, God willing.”

“There are some things I’m allowed to tell you and some things I’m not,” he said.

The revelation came just days after a spokesperson for Islamic State called on Muslims in the West to carry out terror attacks.

The jihadist told Western followers if they had the opportunity to “shed a drop of blood” in Western countries – then they should do so.

Miliband demands America take more refugees

As the standoff in Hungary was brought to the fore of Western media attention this week, an international human rights organization publicly shamed the United States for not doing more to solve the refugee crisis driven by civil war in Syria.

The U.S. has agreed to take up to 8,000 Syrians, but that’s not nearly enough, according to the International Rescue Committee.

David Miliband, CEO of the New York City-based IRC, demanded in a press release on its website that the U.S. accept 65,000 Syrian refugees by the end of President Obama’s term in office. Miliband’s organization made no mention of the persecuted Christians in Syria.

FBI counter-terrorism expert Michael Steinbach told Congress in February it has no reliable way of vetting the Syrian refugees and FBI Director James Comey told Congress the agency already has its hands full with active ISIS investigations in all 50 states.

Yet the call for the U.S. to take more Syrian refugees has been incessant since last year, with the most public demands coming from Miliband’s organization as well as from the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service and the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, which started out as a rescue mission for persecuted Jews but now relocates mostly Muslims to the U.S.

The Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service sent out an alert to its supporters this week asking them to pressure the Obama administration to accept 200,000 foreign refugees in 2016, including 100,000 from Syria.

Like the IRC and the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, the Lutheran group gets paid by the federal government to resettle refugees in U.S. cities and towns.

Sign the national petition telling Congress to stop all refugee resettlements unless first approved by the local receiving community.

ISIS leader praises terror attacks on West

ISIS, meanwhile, continues to take advantage of Western blind spots, where mere mention of the word “refugee” tugs at the heartstrings of well-meaning Christians and Jews.

ISIS spokesman Abu Mohammed al-Adnani this week praised the recent terror attacks in Australia, Belgium and France.

“We repeat our call to Muslims in Europe, the infidel West, and everywhere to target the Crusaders in their home countries and wherever they find them,” he said.

“We will be enemies, in front of God, to any Muslim who can shed a drop of blood of a Crusader and abstains from doing that with a bomb, bullet, knife, car, rock or even a kick or a punch.”

A Turkish foreign ministry official said authorities were actively working to clamp down on refugee-smuggling.

He said since Europe accepts few refugees through legal channels, the demand for smuggling has increased.

“Illegal migration has been an important issue and Turkey is effectively fighting against it,” the official, who declined to be named, confirmed.

“Of course the most effective way to put an end to all these problems would be immediate action by the international community to solve the Syrian conflict.”

In other refugee news Friday:
•CNN reported that people in the throng said they had decided to set out on foot because they “simply could not wait in Keleti station any longer for Europe’s politicians to make decisions” – and that they’d walk all the way to Germany if they had to. The Austrian capital, Vienna, is about 250 kilometers (155 miles) from Budapest.
•Britain, meanwhile, announced will accept “thousands more” of the refugees, CNN reported.
•And Hungary’s prime minister, Viktor Orban, was taking heat in the media for his comments Thursday that Muslim migrants must be blocked to “keep Hungary Christian,” the New York Times reported.
•Russia’s Putin and Turkey’s Erdogan said the West was to blame for creating the refugee crisis in the first place, through its fomenting of civil war against Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad.

I'm jealous of you southern guys with a fall garden! Enjoy! Looks like a great start.

I will say I'm NOT jealous of your July temps! Ha. :)
Does any of us have it "Great"
I mean Red Neck here has a fall garden, but his summers are nearly unbearable. Sam has a short summer, and some weeks when it is so cold it is unsafe outdoors, but the other times he enjoys peace and quiet...and safety. JR has oppressive government but enjoys some great weather, some breathtaking scenery and a variety which is hard to duplicate. Ken has some really hot days and not a lot of trees, but he has wide open expanses that beg to be explored. I have very humid summers but winters which are not too awful bad and inexpensive land and other things.

Point is, I guess while I'm philosophizing, is that we all have some things we like and some we don't. Some things which are good, some which are not. I guess we choose which particular component of living is most important to us

or

we are married and we (are forced to) move to where she is from!

(Got cha!)

Good discussion. I am learning. After this summers fires and the ongoing dry weather I am cutting back the tree's around the house/shop. Borrowed a friends box blade to break up the roots/coarse grass. Much more to do but then will need a brush hog to maintain it as Willows come back quick. Need to lay out some fire line protection too. The brush hog I looked at only was rated 1.5" not 2" like Don's. Time for more shopping.
Go to the heavy duty models
Everyone buys cheapo bush hogs because they are inexpensive
But they don't last
Get a full on unit with a big gearbox, clutch, thick steel and so forth.
They can be spendy, but you will only have to buy one!

What we have to all keep in mind is the Lords expectations of us, and the examples we set.
I agree, God is in charge
We should raise our praise to him first and always.

For those of you and those who don't know your bible, in the old testament do you know what praising God before battle was?
I would liken it to a battlefield tactical nuclear weapon. When God sent his people against invading armies or the Jews defended themselves against the assyrians, Babylonians and a host of unfortunate aggressors, they would send their praise and worship team in first. In one case God had two armies, opposing the Jews simply kill each other leaving huge plunder for the Jews without the loss of a single soldier.

There is a war coming. The war of good vs evil is here, Evil has gathered a mighty headwind and is clearly seemingly winning the battles. But we win in the end. We should stand fast on the word, wherever that may lead. And we should organize so that through what is to come we have strength through supporting each other.

I could go on and on here, but the time has come to not only prepare to survive, but also to organize and prepare to defend as well, if you are one of those called out to do so.

Nuff said on that. If you hear the call, then answer it. The wolf is not going away, he is gaining strength. Time for you to do so as well.

I am outraged by this liberal judge's actions. It is immoral, illegal, violates Mrs. Davis 1st amendment rights and due process. It is an attempt to silence Christian believers or enslave them. Be clear on this, this is an illegal action.

Please ask yourself a critical question. If the court, who is obviously responsible to uphold the law, acts illegally, and you fight back, are you the unlawful one?

I ask you to think about that because the once clear lines of justice and law have become blurred and twisted because of this gay activist agenda. We are hated by them, and they will not stop with just one Mrs. Davis...





Cruz rips federal judge's 'tyranny' in clerk's case

'Where is the call for President Obama to resign for ignoring and defying our immigration laws'
 
By Paul Bremmer

GOP president hopeful Sen. Ted Cruz, on Thursday accused U.S. District Judge David Bunning of “judicial tyranny” for jailing a Kentucky county clerk who refused to violate her Christian faith and issue licenses to same-sex couples.

He said those who are calling for her removal from office – she can’t be fired, she can only be impeached if she chooses not to quit – are hypocrites.

“Where is the call for President Obama to resign for ignoring and defying our immigration laws, our welfare reform laws, and even his own Obamacare?” Cruz said. “When the mayor of San Francisco and President Obama resign, then we can talk about Kim Davis.

“Those who are persecuting Kim Davis believe that Christians should not serve in public office. That is the consequence of their position. Or, if Christians do serve in public office, they must disregard their religious faith – or be sent to jail,” he continued. “Kim Davis should not be in jail. We are a country founded on Judeo-Christian values, founded by those fleeing religious oppression and seeking a land where we could worship God and live according to our faith, without being imprisoned for doing so.

“I call upon every believer, every constitutionalist, every lover of liberty to stand with Kim Davis. Stop the persecution now.”

Bunning summoned Rowan County clerk Kim Davis to his courtroom on Thursday after she defied his order to violate her faith and issue licenses to same-sex couples.

Bunning, who previously has ruled in favor of partial-birth abortion and homosexual clubs for high schoolers, said a fine simply wasn’t enough punishment for her and ordered her to jail until she agrees to issue the licenses.

Then he ordered her assistants to either issue the licenses or join her in jail. Five of the six agreed, several under protest.

Bunning later tried to resolve the case by telling Davis to come back to his courtroom and she could go if she agreed not to interfere with her deputies’ actions, according to reports.

She refused.

Cruz said: “Today, judicial lawlessness crossed into judicial tyranny. Today, for the first time ever, the government arrested a Christian woman for living according to her faith. This is wrong. This is not America.

“I stand with Kim Davis. Unequivocally. I stand with every American that the Obama administration is trying to force to choose between honoring his or her faith or complying with a lawless court decision,” he said. “In dissent, Chief Justice Roberts rightly observed that the court’s marriage decision has nothing to do with the Constitution. Justice Scalia observed that the court’s decision was so contrary to law that state and local officials would choose to defy it.

“For every politician – Democrat and Republican – who is tut-tutting that Davis must resign, they are defending a hypocritical standard. Where is the call for the mayor of San Francisco to resign for creating a sanctuary city – resulting in the murder of American citizens by criminal illegal aliens welcomed by his lawlessness?”

Paul Kengor, author of “Takedown: From Communists to Progressives, How the Left Has Sabotaged Family and Marriage,  today “it’s the county clerk, tomorrow it will be the florist, the baker, the photographer, the pastor, and on and on,” warned

“Get ready for the persecution coming near you – all, of course, in the name of ‘love’ and ‘tolerance,’” he said. “This has only just begun.”

What do YOU think? Should clerks be jailed for refusing to issue licenses for same-sex marriages? Sound off in today’s WND poll

Kengor was not surprised by the jailing. He said a moment like this became inevitable as soon as Anthony Kennedy and four other Supreme Court justices declared “same-sex marriage” a constitutional right in June.

“For the apostles of tolerance and diversity, this is what their ‘tolerance’ and ‘diversity’ actually look like in practice,” Kengor told WND. “It is intolerance. It is coercion. It is pickets, boycotts, fines, penalties, demonization, and, in some cases, incarceration. Welcome to the Left’s new America, where those who disagree with the Left’s ongoing invention of new ‘rights’ are penalized by the state.”

Michael Brown, a WND columnist, said the case exemplifies why he wrote his new book “Outlasting the Gay Revolution.”

“There will be a price to pay, but it is only as we stand firm that change will come,” Brown told WND. “Kim Davis is paying a very real price now.”

Prior to her court appearance, Davis told Fox News’ Todd Starnes she was prepared to go to jail for her beliefs, saying, “This is a fight worth fighting.”

She actually stopped issuing any marriage licenses after the Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision so she would not be discriminating against any group.

“This is why the very first principle in the book is ‘Never Compromise Your Convictions’ and the fourth principle is ‘Refuse to Redefine Marriage,’” Brown said. “This is the great moral, cultural, and spiritual test of our generation. Will we do what is right in God’s sight – which is in the ultimate best interests of our society – or will we cave in and capitulate?”

Kengor warned that progressives will be ruthless on this matter.

“Be prepared for something even more shocking from the Left – the lack of apologies and regrets,” he said. “Liberals will defend and even applaud the sight of this woman being hauled off to jail.”

Indeed, hundreds of people outside the courthouse chanted, “Love won! Love won!”

Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee tweeted his support for Davis: “Kim Davis in federal custody removes all doubts about the criminalization of Christianity in this country. We must defend #ReligiousLiberty!” he said.

Brian Brown of the National Organization for Marriage said the fault rests with the Supreme Court, which created the conflict between the enumerated constitutional right of free religious exercise and the newly created “same-sex marriage” right.

“It is outrageous to jail Kim Davis because she does not want to personally be part of certifying same-sex ‘marriages’ that violate her deeply held religious beliefs about the nature of marriage,” said Brown. “What this judge is saying is that now that the Supreme Court has illegitimately redefined marriage, every single person in government if not in the country must stand in salute and participate in the act. That is profoundly wrong and violates the spirit of federal law which provides that the government must seek ways to reasonably accommodate people’s religious views in the workplace.”

He said: “While Judge Bunning is the instrument of the inhumane punishing of Kim Davis, the authors of it are the five justices of the U.S. Supreme Court who illegitimately, without a shred of constitutional authority, redefined marriage without any regard to the profound implications their ruling would have on law-abiding, faithful Americans. With this ruling, the idea of religious freedom that is at the heart of our constitution has been eliminated when it comes to exercising beliefs about marriage. It’s a profound shredding of the constitution on the altar of gay activism.”

Penny Nance, president of Concerned Women for America, said that Davis’ “predicament is the direct result of the lawlessness promoted by the Supreme Court of the United States itself with its unconstitutional Obergefell decision.”

“It’s flippant, and frankly insulting, treatment of religious liberty and Obergefell is a disgrace to that great institution.”

AL.com reported Davis’ lawyer, Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel, said, “While she may be behind bars for now, Kim Davis is a free woman. Her conscience remains unshackled.”

Raw Story reported the White House expressed no concern for Davis or religious freedom, with spokesman Josh Earnest saying: “There’s a rule of law and the principle of the rule of law is central to our democracy. And it’s appropriate in this instance for a federal judge to determine the best way to enforce the law.”

A legislative leader in Kentucky had asked the judge to delay the case until lawmakers could provide a resolution, but Bunning refused. He also refused, according to Davis’ supporters, to provider her due process.

WBKO in Bowling Green quoted one pastor raising a question that Bunning failed to address.

Tom James of Eastwood Baptist Church told the station: “The Supreme Court didn’t make a law, they just interpreted the one that was already on the books. … The First Amendment guarantees our freedom to practice our faith, and just because she is a public official, I don’t know of any law that says she loses that freedom.”

Another pastor criticized her for not following the ruling in her position as county clerk. However, “same-sex marriage” was not the law when Davis was elected.

Allow me to DOT here for a moment

Not knowing if it's true or not

But the guy who is the caretaker for the farm beside mine says the last time someone came in and plowed/disked up one of my fields, they found several arrowheads. He said people would come there from time to time to hunt them.

That area is where I found an old homestead, burned down, in amongst the locust trees. I found a filled in cistern and a still functioning well, made of field stone in a circle, classic thing maybe 12 feet or so deep to the water.

It was said that the Indians moved off the place and the homestead came to be some time in the 1830's.

I don't know for sure, but the land became a farm, deeded to the family I purchased it from in the 1830's in courthouse records...

That's all fine and good, right up to the point when I get digging a bigger pond and accidentally exhume some graves...

This is all revolting.

Well, we all have to decide where we stand on this.

If I see an officer assaulted with deadly force or threatened I will respond. I just pray my aim is still as good as it has been. I will protect what is good, and right.

This black hatred thing is so un-American. It needs to be stopped. They think they are so frightening, and so invincible...

No real Black patriotic American would be found in their ranks

Don, I want to be clear.  I am not putting ALL people in any category but like the Muslims, we need those of that crowd that don't agree to denounce it.  Like I would David Duke if that dummy were to rear his ugly head and spew white supremacy.

In many cases, silence is acceptance if you don't speak up and denouce bad behavior.
Let me clarify
I wasn't saying anything about your comments Charles, not at all
What I find revolting is the azimuth of this fringe black hatred movement.
Tonight I was at church with a new "Black" friend of mine. Funny, but I wouldn't think of him as any particular color, he is just a fellow Christian and ex soldier. I am sickened by these hate groups fueled by ignorance racism and big name leaders like Obama, Sharpton, Jackson, Farrakhan and the like. None of them could produce anything including a quality body part to be used for a transplant in anything more important than a pig.
I share your frustration. When this nation takes a nosedive probably from an economic crisis, expect these forces to run unfetted. You will have to do what is necessary to protect your family and property. It will potentially get very ugly

Yeah what Ken said I said LOL  I went and looked to be sure just ground something and switch power or ground it will work either way. It's a Dodge it doesn't need no computer n wires n stuff.

BTW yr speedo won't work either, or your AC or yr cruise if so equipped. It also won't charge less it's a early enough 91.5 to have a external regulator... if so it will charge. LoL

Having fun yet?  I have so far found a way to make everything on mine work with no PCM except the cruise. SO yours will be the same steps...no problem


YEE-OUCH

I might be OK.

It is an 91.5, has the external regulator.

Ya know, when I was ah' choppin on that harness, I was thinking, "Man, this anti-lock has an awful lot of wires!"

As for the AC...I'll wire it from a AA battery and a toggle switch if I have to!

Speedo...I'll use a GPS. If the satellites are out of commission, well civilization will be as well!

Don, according to the wiring diagram i just pullled up for a '91, it supposedly has an overdrive module in that year. The switch (momentary?) pulses the module, it then sends signal out through 2 thermo switches and then to computer requesting solenoid activation. Ignition power at the solenoid with computer controlling the ground.
so, Norm had it right.
You can give the Solenoid power, or ground....it doesn't matter. i would ground one leg to the trans case, and run a switched power for the other side.
Ken does that mean I can switch overdrive on in any gear...like making a 7 speed trans out of this thing?
Like 1st, then 1st w/OD, then 2nd w/o OD, then 2nd w/OD...and so forth?
I suspect the OD can only be hydraulically connected from the drive circuit. But it does raise an interesting question.

I would argue that this was more of a rangers have been here or possibly the AA but that is too spread out for 160, besides the fact that the building is still standing?  160th does not leave buildings standing 8)


OK, Nate, I'll make the correction ;-))

There should be two wires leaving your transmission. If my memory serves me correctly one has juice one is a ground. The computer switched the ground to shift in and out of OD. On my old farm truck I just wired the ground (I wanna say it's blue) to a dimmer switch and away we went.

I can crawl under there and look sometime today and verify.
OK, I'll craw for ya and take a pic or two. Might as well get this figured out
