    I think so or damn close I like the factory look to my switches. I have my fog lights manually wired to a non factory switch by choice cuz it matches the switch for fog lights s10 & illuminates the arm rest in red! Lol

    There not to exspensive and they are bright but you can go to O'Reillys auto parts and get some off road bulbs for $25 a pair unless you know sombody up there then they are only $15 and it make a huge difference I think they at 6000 Kelvins

    I was thinking about going this route, but just had my leafs re-arched Monday. I was worried about flexing and trail shiz with the airbags. the adjust-ability seems very nice though.

    With the cradles you don't have to worry about flexing, they aren't attached at the bottom, they act as bump stops

    Nice. That's what I was curious about.

    Well, I guess I'll see how these newly re-arched leafs work out. If not, I'm going this route. :thumbsup:

    Was thinking about doing a setup like that. How did you mount the Firestik to the bed rail?

    Need more...
    Okay quick check in with you guys, anyone here put on a leveling kit from motofablifts? or one that is just like it? Mine will be here in a few days and I am going to put it on myself as I don't want to pay a shop 200 to do it, I will be getting help from a buddy of mine who is somewhat mechanically inclined, anyways if anyone has some tips or video or instructions and can point me in the right direction, thanks!

    nothing cool
    Didn't want to start a new thread about this question. But has anyone here with a 2nd gen tried to retro for a 3rd gen powered rear window yet? Or if there is a thread already maybe post a link?

    And I know BenWa used to sell the kits. I'm more interested in using the 3rd gen parts. Or if it's even possible.

    I have the rough Country steps, they are 4" round which makes them sit tighter to the body. Looks tons better than Nfabs. Easy install, by yourself but better with help.
