Mb willys jeep safety

[Phil Waterman]

Hi All

I've used a magnetic based rotating amber light for convoying and traveling on high speed roads when it could not be avoided.

As all my trucks have retained 6 volt systems I just replaced the 12 bulb with a 6 volt bulb (brightest one that would fit the base) and it works pretty good though is a little slower revolving. Got another unit at a flea market that had a two step drive using an idler pulley. Changed the bulb on that one and repositioned the drive belt to cut out the idler pulley it spins a little faster.

Cheers Phil

Hi All

When I first put my thoughts on safety first on as a thread I did not think it would create any interest and I am pleased to see my fellow MLU's also think safety first when driving their precious restored vehicles on public roads. There have been some very interesting alternatives to the Rotating Lights come up and used by some members.

Cheers

A nice option for carriers is the magnetic tow light kit. I've got a setup that clips onto the battery poles and has a 4-way flasher relay to both. Easy to pull off when you get to where you are going.
