    What threads are these? I've been busy writing a eulogy for myself in the future for a class. Yeah. It's as stupid as it sounds

    Oh I had to do that last semester. Was weird for sure.

    The picture challenge thread is where you compete with other members to submit photos doing various challenges like, "a picture of your truck and a water tower." Things like that.

    The funny pics thread is just that. Full of funny pictures

    Gotcha. Nice new sig.
    So I burned my finger tip tonight. Hopefully it won't affect trying to open my headlight tomorrow. Makes it hard to pry things apart.

    Thanks! It's smaller than my old one and I'm not sure why... Oh well.

    These Orbit housings wera a big pain in the rear to get them to fit. I had to trim off the back of them and flatten the bottom. Now that they are installed, I love them! They aren't perfect, but I only had one day to get the majority of the work done, so that's what I get for trying to go fast. To the untrained eye though, they will look perfect!

    Oh, also my sway bar had disconnected itself.....so I went ahead and took it off the rest of the way. Now that I have done the tac weld mod on the steering column, the sway bar will be staying off for a long time. It drives much nicer now with that mod done to the steering so I can manage okay without the sway bar

    Got the headlights up and running! I LOVE these things. Huge shoutout to @PcBuilder14 @Boogyman and @dakotasyota for helping me through the install. My driver side projector needs adjusting a little, but overall I am very happy! They are hundreds of times better than my original headlights. 100% worth the time, money, and aggravation.

    For those who don't know, they are Orbit shrouds with Mini D2S 3.0, 35W ballasts, and 4500k bulbs.
