Okay, so the body mount bushings are done. I did flip them for an extra 1/2" which, considering the fact that the stock 1/2" bushings were toast, gave me 1" of body lift. I had to lift the body far more than I expected to get the old bushings out. Sorry no write up but I'm trying to sneak in a half day of work, so I didn't take pics along the way.

I got my stabilus easy down tailgate working with some modding

Thanks for the welcome. Not my truck though. I stole that pic from a headlight thread. I noticed he had both like you and I want. Just so expensive. But boy does it look good. Why does all the good stuff have to be so much.

 

Any details? Write-up? Close-up pics?

 

All good, no worries. But yeah, all good stuff is $$$$$ unfortunately.

 

I bought these and they leaked. They sent me a 2nd set. They leaked.

I said fuck it and me and a buddy opened them up and white headlight modded them. They were good to go for a few months. Then I had to change out my side marker lights that burnt out. The plastic where the side marker lights go in is real thin and after changing the lights, they wouldn't seat into the hole, they would just spin. So they fog up when I wash the bitch.
I wouldn't trust those lights.

After we were done with them:



You never know though, it's a crapshoot with Ebay headlights so you might just end up with a non leaking/fogging set.

 

Hit or miss I guess.

 

I used the washer and zip tie to guide the connecting end of the cable to the left, before I put them in the cable would always push to the right and bind between the tailgate and the strut, now it opens and closes smooth and the cable is no longer being pinched.

 

Bought these for my s10 & no problems for over a year now.

 

Just saying my experience with aftermarket lights has been shitty and they leak. BHLM, if done right, works great.

Then somebody better lower the price in them cuz 480 is ridiculous no matter how you look @ it. Like I said in a earlier post they better be able to make me a sandwich!

 

Great pics! Thanks! I will see if it will work.

 

installed new wiper blades

 

Not today but yesterday, new to me a used Leer camper shell from CL

 

looks good. What made you want a shell?

 

I travel a lot because of my work, and wanted a shell so that I don't have to worry about leaving stuff on the bed visible and easy to steal

 

I'm running the Pro's, but these look like a good way to go.

$$$$$$$$



I think I'll stick to possibly buying my Pros

 

Yeah... No! I'm a DIY kinda guy! I rebuilt the entire front end of my s10 for less then the price y'all are paying for these pro headlights... Rebuild included radiator, front core support, hood, hood catch latch, front bumper, grill & Euro style composite headlights that were retrofitted to go on a 95 s10. Just food for thought. What is so great that you would pay that much for them other then the name?
