    I had these made. These are on my Lexus.

    I’ve got Mini H1’s in the high beam bowls and it just so happens there’s a bunch of stuff directly behind the housing exactly behind the high beam section. Giant pain in the ass to adjust and I can’t get my tiny hands in there.

    Im sure we can rally some troops on. here. Or hit up moving with grace in woodland. If you opt that route, lets chat before you call. I know an ex manager there really well and she is still good with the owner.

    She ain't stock anymore.
    Those of you who re-geared w/lockers, did you do anything special for the front as far as break in?

    After a google search, I think 2nd gens have ADD. Which I suppose is good in this situation. It basically means your front CVs spin as your wheels spin and ultimately spin/cycle in the differential even though your differential isn't in 4WD. For my gear break in, I relied on the diff "rotating" even though I wasn't "engaging" 4wd. I've since used 4wd twice with no problems.
    FWIW, I do know the fluid was getting cycled as it wasn't still new fluid after changing my fluid after the first 500 miles. The gears also did wear in, see picture of wear on painted part of diffs
    This approach could be totally wrong but it's seemed to have worked for me at least:notsure:

    Windsor, Cleveland, or modified? There’s three in that family.

    edit: spoke too soon.
    I only really know the 302 pretty good. Was debating between the 351W and a crate 302. Ended up with a 302 from a Ford racing.
