    What on earth are you hoping to clear? My truck is not nearly high enough for me to warrant getting clearance lights.

    Low clearance parking garage? Seems like a pointless mod and I think it would look silly on a mid-size truck. My cousin's ranger had them when he bought it and it looked ridiculous. To each his own but that's just my opinion.

    I've got some lights mounted on my frame under my first gen with them pointed sort of out and at the front tires. It helps so much during offroading/anywhere where there are no street lights, I'll try to get some pics if you want. Aiming the beams at the ground though is sort of......unecessary though.
