    Having thought about it overnight after you asked. I wouldn't recommend these lights. I am a bit of a perfectionist and the slightly off level cut offs have bugged me. After thinking about it long and hard I decided to pull them off and send them back for a refund (pending the vendor cooperating with the return) while I still can. I threw my stock halogen housings back on a few minutes ago and will likely order ditch lights and a 30"light bar for the lower valance instead to increase light output up front.

    If I were you and can get the TRS kit for about the same cost. I will do that instead, hands down.

    Hello LAIR. I jumped up a setting on my 5100s yesterday after work. Had to put the head mounted flashlight on to torque lug nuts. Got both sides done in 3-1/2 hours. Using the truck weight as a spring compressor is golden. So glad I found that video!
    I'm at Firestone for alignment now. I talked to the tech about what I want, and he understands how to align with SPC UCAs.
    I'm tempted to buy the lifetime alignment for $199, vs regular one-time for $109. Seems like a no brainer. Thoughts?

    Hell yeah, thanks for taking pics! I always forget to.
    Thanks for the thorough reply. If/when I decide to upgrade, I'm gonna do a retrofit.
    Do it! Totally worth it. The only downside is some firestones won't touch lifted trucks. Make sure you won't have any issues there.

    Well, they're working on it now, so i guess I'm ok. There's a lot of GrowDozers here in Humboldt County, so they must be used to it.
