Ok, I just went outside and measured mine for you. But in addition to the considerations you mentioned, you may need to also consider the type of king-pin the rig has. I'll explain that a bit more...

Are you wanting it to start up, and it’s not… or… is it just trying to start up on its own, even though you don’t have the thermostat set on “Heat”?

You’re gonna be hard pressed to find ANY body parts for a 2006 rig… or any rig over 4 or 5 years old for that matter.
