    Ummm sure, thats called a plate bumper because its built out of steel plate and a prerunner style is a tube bumper because its obviously built out of steel tubing. Aren't you going to school for welding ? You should know this lol

    I'm ordering the switches for my lights tomorrow. I'm going to have dullys installed on good mounts. By the end of March early April I also plan to get my skids and bed rack.

    I use the 2 outer duallys for fog (flood ones) not bad in at least that OC fog you get around the 57/91
    But I can only aim then so much and still blind people because the hit those side plates I have. I might flip the duallys and have them sit inside so have more adjustment...

    Feel free to correct me but the more light you put out in the fog the worse it is. The water in the fog just reflects more back at you. Fog lights are supposed to be used when there is a fog that rolls in. Used to be when you were offroading and a fog rolled in you would turn on your fog lights so other vehicles could see you. The lights are supposed to be on the bumper and aimed at the ground and aimed toward the ground and clear yellow and amber lens are better as stated in above post. The beam is supposed to be wide and flat which minimizes the reflection back and wide so it will illuminate the side of the road or trail so you can see the ground around your road or trail. If you have driving lights they are clear and are used with driving lights to peirce more darkness during normal driving. Most people drive with thier high beams like every freakin day I see them driving with thier high beams in fog! Its actually prohibited to use high beams in heavy fog. Another thing for driving in the fog is freezing fog. When temptures drop below freezing it will freeze water on contact not only on windshields but also on roads which creates black ice this happens on bridges more often though :D
