    Hey dudes, just got back from the fair. Saw Russ and Daniel! Hope all had fun! A little great news for you all, Alaska led lighting has moved into anchorage! The owners a really good guy, met him at the sportsmanship show last year. Will be buying all my lights from him moving forward. Check him out, off king street! Right in my neck of the woods, trouble!

    Had a great time both days at the fair. Camping setup sucked but was worth it to not have to drive back and forth. Concert Saturday was great, races were alright Sunday.

    My driver side bulb light is just not as bright for some reason. I've swapped ballasts and it still does it. And I've exchanged bulbs with TRS and it still happens. Not sure what's going on. My high beams also went out a few months ago...but mine are the minis so it's not exactly the same as yours.

    Ihad the same problem but it was my passanger side. I don't know how your kit was but each one of my harnesses had a ground wire and the one on the passenger side was not getting a good connection so I fixed that and the light worked fine

    I've moved the ground around and eventully put it straight to the battery and it still does it. I may replace the ring terminal on it and see if that's the problem. The ones they send with the kit are pretty cheap.

    I'm gonna pick up the rest of my stuff from John tomorrow.

    Does anyone have some space (and willingness) to help with a suspension overhaul?

    Yup! The Umbrella one. That seemed a bit safer. Lol I asked the guy at the slide if she was big enough and he says, "can she walk?" I said no. He says, "why don't you just tell me she's walked a few times", so I did. Lol

    I think you need to remind your roommates who helped move them in ;)

    No worries about where, it'll get done eventually. I've got a nice socket set I can bring, what else is needed as far as tools/supplies?

    That'd be awesome, don't worry about the beers...I'll have those covered...that is unless you want a specific kind.
