    Hello sam just wanted to get some advice from you on the ignition. I tried to install it today..Problem is...It dont have the head light nipple there wich holds the bucket in place. Shooting pics one min..ok so can I switch out the aluminum mounting..or is that a tumbler deal? If I can switch out the aluminum mount, then ill be good.

    I scribbled on the new one where the little nub with the screw hole should be...Thanx Ridz 8)

    Sorry Ridz, I was busy helping with the babyshower. You can swap the aluminum housing without causing any heartburn. This of course assumes that the internals are the same (odds are in your favor they are). Two screws, a daub of silicone over the screw holes after you are done and your back in business. Remember, don't chuck the parts, they are still of use. It is possible to have someone TIG a boss onto the bottom of the housing for a backup.
    Side note, I'm still up for your dead lock tumbler. PM me for details.
