    Finally found a way to mount an LED bar on the roof thanks to Taco Man in HD! Hopefully will have one this Summer. :cool:

    :drool: I want one. Just found out my work sells rigid lights. Just the m-series, but I should be able to special order any light I want and get a discount doing it.

    Haha of course it's long! I'm just trying to decide between this and rock sliders.

    Do you night wheel? Do you wheel in rocky terrain?

    Rock sliders would be a better way to go instead of a light bar imo. I had a light bar on my truck I had gotten instead of sliders then not much longer I went offroad and crunched in the passenger side of my truck which could have been saved by rock sliders :( It definitely made me regret not getting the rock sliders sooner.

    Well right currently I do neither, but I am going to New Mexico for about 4-5 months and I'm not sure what I'll be doing. I'd love to have a light bar and go drive the the desert at night, but I also want to climb some rocks out on the trails...

    You're probably right, I'll try to hold off and order sliders instead.

    Yeah, I'll probably buy sliders and while they're being built I might get a light bar.

    It makes me sad to see the dent in my bed knowing a set of sliders could have prevented it :pout:

    If I build up another truck, sliders will definitely be one of the first mods I do to the truck

    I have the trail gear welded on kit. If I had to do it again I would do something with a kick out. Now you got me thinking on having mine modified.

    The kickouts on the 4xinnovations sliders are why I chose them over the TG sliders. The TG sliders are great slider and were my second choice over a lot of other sliders.
    Good call ;)

    Probably so haha

    So I was checking the psi in my tires and doing a visual inspection before I drive 500 miles tomorrow night, and I noticed that there is some grease or something on the transmission above the seal between the transmission and the pan. Not sure what it could be or why it would be going up the side of the trans if it was leaking or something?

    I can't really tell what you're talking about in the picture :eek: Is it grease from greasing the drive shafts or is it oil/oil like?

    It's that dark spot in the very middle of the picture above the front half of the driveshaft. I'm not sure, I didn't touch it or anything. Hopefully it just grease slung from the driveshaft.
