    I ended up breaking down and getting a toyota rack. It's been good for about 150k so far! . A short bit later my autozone cvs failed and caused huge vibes on the highway. Haven't bought any reman/ dura last crap since..

    It's always had play in it. Last time I had it In a shop they said it was fine but I'm sure it's what's bad. The lift probably accelerated the wear on it as well.

    We (Adam) ran a screw through the side of mine into the fiberglass on the inside. If I was by my truck id put up a pic. But haven't lost a marker light housing yet. Works well if want a pic I can text u one later.

    Jordan "santabarbarataco" has some of these all in one lights and loves them! I read somewhere that some had issues with them leaking. Nothing some extra silicone couldn't fix.

    I always add my own seal when purchasing off ebay....Ebay stuff always seems to leak. Get a tube of clear silicone and seal away. Did it to my clear corners and my turn signals....however, the turn signals get water in them from where the bulb is inserted..owell

    Yeah, my corner lights get fogged up when I go through a car wash. No big deal though as long as my headlights don't do that.

    Put this old Ford bull bar on. Still up in the air if I like it or not. I think it would look better on an older truck but o well. Planning on painting it black and throwing some lights on it.

    Surprisingly enough my eBay headlights haven't fogged/leaked since I put them in almost a year ago, I've even (accidentally :anonymous:) dropped the front end underwater for a quick second and they've been fine
