it's a Peckat brand visor. Took a little work to get it to fit how I wanted but well worth the time and effort.

Re: On the Road Again - Finally

Still getting used to the non-synchro transmission. I had the same T9 in a Studebaker years ago and had an easier time of it from what I remember. I just need a little more time in the cab. The SD220 sounds really healthy, especially through the 24" glasspack I stuck on it. Just enough bark to hear it, but no cab drone or excessive noise. Although, even at it's healthiest it's still a low compression 100hp tractor engine. That'll take some getting used to again as well. I'm half tempted to find a set of 4.77 gears from a 3/4 ton just to help pull the hills here on the east benches of the valley, and eventually a few of the canyons. Top speed is less of a concern for now. Either way, it's still good to be moving.
