    Another thing I'd like but don't need, yet anyway. :p

    Yeah... me too but I can't afford them yet. :drool:

    I'll be applying with Kinross in a few months for a position in their PM shop at RM. Probably a few other mines around Elko as well. Where do you work?

    I work at a place called Northern Nevada Equipment. We are a kubota and bobcat dealer, but we also custom fab and service tractors to go underground at the mines. i work in the service shop side fixing all the equipment they destroy underground lol. Its a pretty sweet gig, I enjoy it a lot.

    I'll get a picture of the output later. Finished up, took her for a spin, but left the phone in the house and it's snowing and cold out so, later. Theres seemingly little difference between the LFs and lightbar vs my low beams. VERY bright! Super impressed.

    I knew that they were slip joints. But they're Toyota? As in like they included them in the trucks at one point?
