    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    If they would be for 2nd gen. I would test one out, would just have to get the lights from @Taylor@KC HiLiTES...

    While mine is a 2nd gen, someone else on our team (one of my supervisors who knows all about this project) has a 3rd gen he is building. I can ask him if he wants to test these out?

    Please please send it to KC. And the 2nd gen one too. TW members are hit or miss reliability or timeliness. And I don’t mean that in a derogatory way, just is what it is.

    Can someone give me a link to something with a little bit more substantial directions on how to install a new brake light housing on a third gen? Something beyond "drop the headliner, or smash out the factory light" would be appreciated!

    I’m down @mesojdm if you need a third gen tester. I’ll gladly give you adequate feedback for this setup. However, I’m more interested in the Baja Designs model, I’ll definitely help out to get these on the market.

    I walked into Lowes and bought them. I believe they were hillman 3/4in caps. (can't say for certain off the top of my head if this is the correct size) trying to find my list of materials but its buried in boxes.

    did manage to find the revised light, I painted the hi lights black like meso had described doing. now to find my wiring materials to get it installed.
