    It is a pretty even spread from side to side. The middle of the 20" bar is a spot, and the outer sections floods, so it fills in the gaps pretty well. I'll snap a pic once the sun goes down tonight.

    Did you do night pics yet of that? I am curious to see how the ditch lights do on the bumper.

    No night pics yet, going to snap some tonight. That's is if the rain and hail ever stop! What the hell is happening to colorado?!?!

    The smaller LEDs are somewhat blocked by the bars on the bumper, but the lights do slide side to side on the mount, so I was able to move them farther out to get around the bars more. I'll get a close up of the mount, have to take the driver back off to tighten it a bit anyway.

    Finally got some night pics of the new lights. Pretty good side coverage from mounting on the bumper, I think I can still get a little more coverage if I adjust the mounts a bit. Still, not as good as a roof or hood mount ditch light. Guess I'll just have to add more lights ;)

    Finally got the truck off the pavement today. Ran Storm Mountain and some surrounding trails with Travis (NativeTaco). Pretty easy trail, only one really technical area, but really fun. Was nice not worrying about crunching the stock bumper. As always I didn't take as many pics as I should have.

    Worst video ever. I guess when I hit record when you climbed right up I didn't actually hit record. So sorry man.

    The video from the go pro may be better but unfortunately that only shot in front of me so you won't be in that either. I suck.

    Hahaha I wondered how much of that you got. At least you didn't get the part when I was bitching about my lack of horsepower and that I need better gears! For the record, I did make it under my own power.

    Got around to some much needed maintence today. Changed the rear dif fluid, transfer case fluid, and cabin air filter. Great write up on it here:

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/complete-30k-maintenance.37648/

    The Flotool along with putting a little hole in the oil bottle made life a lot easier. Didn't have the oil pan in position when I did the t case so I had some cleanup on my hands.

    In other news, truck is now paid off and all mine :D:bananadance::cheers:
