    Just spent the past 6 hours installing rock lights. I’ll get some night time pics later but if you want to see placement, go peep my IG story.

    I decided to crawl under the truck and snap some pics to share. There are 12 lights, 6 on each side mirroring each other.

    I was a bit strategic in my placement. This one is angled a hair forward for approach illumination.

    This part of the frame has a slight upward angle to it, pointing the light towards the back of the front tire.

    A nice flat area in the center of the sliders to fill in that middle ground.

    These are angled inward a bit on the crossmember to illuminate directly under the truck.

    this part is angled towards the front of the rear tire, which also protects the light, being nice and tucked up.

    And finally, some nice axle illumination.

    That’s why I opted for cheaper lights, so I could afford to put a shitload of them under there. I installed 12 of them lol
