    My OTRATW switch came in yesterday so I got that installed for the rock lights and tied it to the dome light. So in one position it comes on with the dome light and the other position it's always on.

    Also wired my Ultra Gauge behind the A-Pillar trim while I was in there tapping into the dome light wire.

    It's a noticeable difference but couldn't give you exact numbers as I didn't run it before and after on a strip.

    Made a cardboard template today but the only usable space was around the fuse block. Still need to figure out where to mount my circuit breakers.

    Lost track many, many mods ago.
    That is one clean truck! Looks great. Can't wait to see the updated pics with the bumper.

    Thanks, bumper won't be on till Mid-April. Had it shipped to FL so I can put it on when I go down for a few days.

    And you guys with these trailer builds keep making me want one. Although I'm leaning towards making a custom trailer from scratch. That will be a 2014 or later project though.

    Not much happening on it lately. Paid it down to owing $5,000 on it. And a picture at Flagpole Knob, VA.

    Awesome build. Sub'd. Curious to see the duallys on. Looking into either a pair of duallys or a pair of d2s in amber for some aux/additional fog lights. Not sure if the duallys will be enough or if the d2s will be to much. Anyone using any?

    The Duallys will be more than plenty. Saw them in persons when Yotamatt had them on his Pelfreybilt front bumper.

    White. Ambers are more for marker lights or whatnot, not really driving/fog/spot lights

    What about d2s? Im looking for lights for bad weather and early night driving. Around here when weather gets bad, you cant see the freakin lines on the road. Thought that amber duallys or d2 would help in those situations.
