    Damn... Those pads were toast! I'm surprised you could hear your leaf pack squeaking over those pads squealing :laughing:

    They hadn't started squealing yet. Just started a slight metal rubbing metal sound.

    I also weighed the wheels while they were off. 90lbs. I think the tires are heavier than advertised. My old wheels were only 83lbs.

    E. The tires were supposed to be 61lbs. Some people who weighed them said they are actually closer to 66lbs.

    While I was at the parts department at the dealership, I noticed they had some parts locked up in a cage, which was also in a cage, inside another cage! I could tell there were some leafpacks in there. Don't know what the other parts were.

    Adjusted and aimed my projectors last night. I was able to use a big flat head screwdriver to twist the projectors fairly level. It's hard to get perfect, so I'm happy with what I got. Then I pulled up to this wall, 25' away, and aimed my lights so they were 36" in the middle of the beam.

    Now as for the two step-ups from the projectors; should those be over each other, not spaced out like they are here?

    When I had mine, I adjusted that gap so it was the same distance apart as the headlights are on the truck.

    Wow Jason you definitely got your money out of those. Alex you definitely want them spaced like you have them. Alex where did you come up with the 36" measurement? Is that just the height of your light?

    I thought I read that your headlights could be 36" off the ground from 25'-35' away?

    But what if you were in a little rice burner and the lights are only 18"-24" off the ground at the car. They would be pointed up

    Just lost power. Someone must have smacked a pole.

    Edit: Someone did.

    Edit: Power is back!

    I wouldn't say I'm a diehard, but definitely a fan. I don't follow professional soccer but once it gets closer to the World Cup, I pay attention. I prefer to be playing vs. watching.
