    So I thought I remember seeing on this thread somewhere there was a company making lower control arm gussets, but can't find anything with my searches. Is this something someone offers?

    Pretty sure they're either on/off. Not dual output.

    IF they really are just on/off and Depending on how committed you are to using them you can wire in some sort of electrical component that will dim them, and attach the brake wire to the component to allow full brightness when brakes are applied.... I don't remember the name of the component as I did it like 6 years ago on a motorcycle but Im sure its on google.

    Yep, straight from us they're on/off. But you can mess with voltage in to get a function that would be dimmer than full power and could actually as driving mode. We've had people do that in the past, I just can't recall how they did it exactly. We've had plenty of people run these as brake lights! @nfs257 ran them for a while and was one of the first to do so if I recall correctly.

    $6.07 per foot for 1.75x.0.120 DOM seem like a reasonable price to anyone that bought steel recently? I’m used to HREW being about half that and getting ready to order up for the cage
