    haha no.. I haven't had much time to do anything on the truck since its dark out by the time I get home from work, and weekends are reserved for snowboarding.

    I also want to re do my front bumper with bed liner, so I'll wait till thats done before gluing the lights to it.

    I'll order some more lights from you once it gets warmer and I have more motivation to work on it.

    Yea that's the thread I used as a how to. My lights do jiggle, but I haven't bothered to do anything about it because they don't get used very often.
    They actually won't turn on at the moment.. I think a ballast went bad. I'm eventually switching to light forces or something similar mounted on a hoop on the bumper.


    Yea exactly. Instead of having to install the locker in your current 3rd, you just swap 3rds.

    Thanks! I appreciate the support!

    haven't done much lately.. but I did swap my spindles with ones that are gusseted with total chaos spindle gussets.

    [​IMG]

    The stock ones just look so weak compared to these. Makes me feel much better.

    Last winter I slid on some ice going around an exit ramp and the passenger side hit the guard rail. It luckily only really scratched the bumpers because the wheel spacers push the tires out enough to protect the body, but I did bend the passenger side spindle. In less than 500 miles that tire was completely thread bare on the inside edge from just a slight bend in the spindle.

    [​IMG]

    Top one: Not bent. Bottom one: slightly bent
