while test driving a 2003 3500 I found I couldn't see where the front of the truck really was.<br> :P My new 2003 3500 4x4 will be here soon and I would like to know where to get a set of fender finders/guides. The crome post with the amber lites on top. I back a trailer of some kind {boat, equipment tri axel, boat and travel trailer} a lot so I want to be able to tell where the front of the truck is.<br>Thanks<br> ;D Al

 

Check www.awdirect.com.<br>I buy all my light accessories form them. They are not cheap but I never got a cheap product from them either.

 

Thanks Dieseldude. Antque tractors!!! Me too. 20 of them from 1938 Massey Harris 101r to 1957 Massey Harris 555 diesel<br>one 1965 Ford 5000 gas.

 

I've got eight right now. You can go to www.yesterdaystractors.com and do a search under Joel Williams in the Tractor Photos section to see all of mine.<br><br>Did you check out the A&amp;W Direct site? They have pretty much everything you can think of for towing or hauling.

 

Never had a problem finding my front. It's my rear I have lots of trouble with.<br><br>shortround out

 

A friend of mine used to bust my a*% for having them.<br>He called them rookie sticks.<br>

 

Reckon I have been lucky all theese years - ain't ripped a bumper off yet. Spent more time backing up tobacco trailers to the bulk barns than going forward in my pre-driver's license days. All of that practice has come in handy over the years.<br><br>Does the new body style have that much of a front bulge to keep you from seeing the corners? <br><br>I know I had to get used to the 96 after about 250K miles in 78 and 82 Dodge pickups.

 

Oh ya the front just drops off on the 2003 model 2500 &amp; 3500. You see the leaf screen cover over the wiper transmission and about 6&quot; to 8&quot; of hood and thats it.<br>I've never had much of a problem backing up anything either before. Lots of pratiace with a cab over Pete (400 big cam cummins) and 45' trailer in a past life.<br>Going to check the AW site right now. <br>;D Al

I use The Force. I have amazed people at how close I can come to objects with my truck at high speed.<br><br>Chris

 

Think I've seen those at the truck stops around the country. Try one of them they may not be to exspensive there.

 

:P The force is for us belivers, but when you get as old as I am it flickers in and out, so I need rookie sticks ;D for the front. I've got a big rear so if I loose some NBD. :'( Didn't find any at the AW site, did order a catalog which might have some in them.<br> ;D Al

 

The catalouge has them, they send me one about every month since I buy a good bit from them. If you don't find them, let me know. I will look it up and send you the part number.

 

Find you a good lookin brush guard. Looks better, protects the truck, and you can tell where the front is. ;D

 

I just creep up until I see the fuzzy dice in the other car start to wiggle ... then I know it's time to stop. ;D <br><br>PISTOL
