    You can. The switch powers the relays. That does look good man

    Should be able too. Wouldn't be hard to put HIDs n there.

    I use one relay for my 4.

    But I bought a relay plug and wired 2 12ga wires off the relay. One wire for two lights.


    But you can wire one switch to two relays. Quite simple really. Especially if you put the switch on the ground side(what I do on all relays). But I think that's a bit overkill.

    Or did they come with relays??

    If they came with relays, you can modify it easily to go off one switch.

    Dropped $500 on a new radiator and thermostat at the shop. Funny thing is, while I'm getting stiffed paying that rediculous amount, the shop i took it to ruined 3 radiators trying to put them in. Autozone sent them 3 of the wrong size. I really wanted to do this myself and save a few $$$ but I am taking a long raod trip and didnt have the time to do so.

    I'm going to replace my rotors and pads tomorrow. Is 85lbs right for the torque on lug nuts? And what about the caliper bolts?

    You sure? Mine is a Century "T-class". I don't have a problem with it. Probably has to do with the installation/clamp system.

    I don't have a window up front it has a boot that goes over the window. Direct access to the cab or into the bed.
    Do you think that could be the problem. It does not do it much.

    I doubt it, most likely the clamps aren't tight enough or not enough of them.

    I have really thick padding underneath it. Like 1/4 or so. Maybe less. Could this be the problem?

    Got my truck back from Toyota after having the timing belt and water pump replaced, then finally found a black tool box that would fit my truck! But since I had already payed Toyota a lot of money my debit card denied my purchase of the tool box, so I had to drive 25 miles to my bank to get cash. It's been a long day... Haha but I finally was able to get all my tools out of my back seat!
