    Headlights sanded and clearcoated by a friend of mine. Used car clear so it should hold up real well.

    Yup the axle is built to be moveable, thats the point of using them on a front end. as long as you werent over extending it in any direction you are good.

    The real question is how is it floating like that. Doesn't look like there is anything there to be holding it up.

    Got the truck at the end of March and just getting started on doing some work to make it my own.

    Finished the install of my CustomCarGrills mesh and I think it came out pretty decent.
