Good lights to buy

On mine there are a couple rubber o-ring type deals that help keep everything solid when you unscrew them to make it more of a fog beam. But i have mine screwed all the way in as well because i use them on the highway for driving lights mostly and dont want as much glare off the road signs and stuff. The 140's I have are set up more as fog lights.

 

No you just twist them. Kinda cool really. But doesn't work so well on the 8'' reflectors. too much weight. 140s and 170s i bet it works better.

You can get many different lens covers though including a "fog" one.

 

The lens is another way to change the beam pattern. You can get a spot style lens, a combo filter, and even a sttraight fog filter IIRC.

 

huh interesting. Ill have to look at that when i go home for christmas.

 

If anyone decides to take on the task of HID'ing the lightforces buy the little adapter for an H3 bulb!! Theres a guy in Australia i think? that makes them and it makes the job a million times easier.

LF240 HIDed..scarey..

 

I know the 170's are crazy enough!

 

Well..now i'll have to do it at some point haha

 

On the site with the adapters they suggest 100w HID's

 

Hell ya. Go big or go home!

That's insane...

 

Info...these are NOT the right ones....these are 24v ones. They make both a 12v, and a 24v. Make sure you get the right ones when ordering...other than that..yes the light force 170's.

 

ya have seen that vid.

I will say this though. HIDs take about 5-10 seconds to warm up as that video shows. One of the reasons i like the LF240s as halogens they light up instantly.

Now..once the HIDs are warm they turn on and off like a halogen. But if you get stuck with a lot of traffic they cool down and don't pop back on instantly.

Not huge deal. Just an fyi.

 

also, if you wait a cpl weeks, I'm gonna have an nFab light bar for sale that you can stick those light forces on. It's how I have mine mounted now....waiting on my elite front bumper before I pull it off.

Edit: I just sent a pic to live, I'll post it up for you in a sec.

 

Here ya go

 

Sweet I like that! I think I saw the same one on 4 wheel parts but I wasn't sure how low or high it would be but I might take you up on that!

 

Also why are the 24 volts the wrong one are 12 volts better?

 

Your truck is a 12v system.

 

Ohh duh wow don't know why I asked that
