    Yes these are! They really light up the whole area in front giving you a wide field of view. I don't know why I waited so long to upgrade my fogs...

    I've gotta get my bumper sorted then get mine aimed better. Yours are doing so well unobstructed like they are

    At first I was up in the air between the Sport or the Pro. I read here that some with Pros get flashed all the time. I stuck with the Sport, as I will be driving with them on every morning to work.

    The flashing probably has more to do with the aiming and it being a jacked up truck. I get blinded by trucks around here that are taller than mine and these newer cars with the new LED headlights those things kill me.

    @memario1214 hooked me up with these lights, and I couldn't be happier!

    Since I added more rake to my truck, I think my headlights are aimed a little lower than usual. I think I'll adjust them up a hair when I get a chance.

    I got lucky and adjusted mine as best I could by shining on my garage door, before I buttoned up the fender liners. When I turned them on, they were both perfectly in line with each, so no adjustment needed!

    The SS3 Sports are excellent in the dark and in the rain. If you're on the fence about these, I say get em, they are worth the money!

    It was a good place to ride! Slammed onto my sliders multiple times and am thinking of going with another brand now. Something that will flex less when I put the weight of the truck on them. My skids, look like they have been to war, I'm going to have to take my front skid off and beat the dent out and repaint.

    Bud Built! look into their HD ones not sure if they got them for the 3rd gens or not. They sandwich the frame good from both sides. If they made DCLB ones I'd be switching to them for sure.

    They are a pretty penny for the Bud built ones. It looks like just one frame plate, with nothing folding underneath the frame to bolt. So there's plates that go on the inside of the frame and connect to the frame plate? I'm looking for function and strength now. I'll sell these RCI ones if I can find some that are more rigid. I was looking at Mobtown ones, but the Bud built ones use 3/8" frame plates! That's pretty thick!

    Yeah if you scroll through the pics it shows the inner sandwich plates on them. In reality they all are going to flex I don't think I've seen a single brand that doesn't. But the way they sandwich is really good. If you really wanted to you could get Trey to weld a couple of tabs that wrap around the edge of the frame then drill some holes and bolt them in from there.

    My outer tube is about 1" away from my rocker panel. It flexed it up enough to put a teeny DOM tubing dent in it!
