    made it home with the sized one still in, just drove at 2,000 RPM so it wasnt too bad, hit my parts stash cause the one I ordered is lost somewhere between Vancouver and Calgary.

    Thanks for your offer btw, glad to see guys around to help out!

    Hey no problem it would have been my pleasure, plus I always look for an excuse to travel to the mountains.

    I really like the way you have the All-pro bumper painted. Definitely one of my favorite superwhites!

    so another bit of an upgrade is coming soon!

    - Lightforce 240 Blitz
    - ARB onboard air

    Just got the lightforces, waiting on the wiring harness and lenses, which should be here this week.

    ARB onboard air is on order, and should be installed once I get it.

    Now just need to figure out how to wire it so that I can run stock fog light switches for all the lights.

    Wiring aftermarket lights to stock switches isn't hard.
    There are 4 tabs sticking out the back of the stock switch and I believe they're in this order:
    1. Top - ground
    2. Power input
    3. Illumination power (for the light inside the switch)
    4. Bottom - Power output

    I'll confirm if you need me to, just need to pull out one of mine and check the wires.

    Sweet, thx! I am not an electrical guy so having that info is a huge help!

    I was able to grab the plug and wires from an old wiring harness, so I'm hoping that I can just run the lightforce wiring harness into the cab, connect with the stock plug and wires and probably run an connector between the illuminated power.

    I will be taking lots of pics for those who want to follow the same set up.

    Thanks!

    That's exactly what I did when I wired up a set of PIAA's to a stock switch. Having the original harness there to steal power for the switch illumination is nice, otherwise you have to tap in elsewhere.

    Well they are on the truck with keyed nuts and ready to go!

    Just need to get some wire crimpers and I can install the switch
