NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Not sure if you guys posted these already, but I've considered them as rock/undercarriage lighting...though that is pretty much an afterthought for me:

Also, Chickenmunga Mike and I installed these lightbars to replace our stock canopy lights.

They are BRIGHT and rotate around, so I can shoot the light out from the bed and illuminate the whole area behind the truck

 

Sorry, just to make sure your referring to these ones right?

All it needs is a 6" section of clear flat area. I can't think of a spot off the top of my head but I am sure it wouldn't be too hard.

How would you mount those?

 

Find or drill a hole, stick it in, tighten down the nut.

 

That's what she said

 

Here's some pics of a TW/4R member that installed some Eagle Eye cheapies (I think there are a few more pics on the previous page of his build too)

I would suggest using the 9w over the 3w though if you really want to light up the area.

I just looked up the Vision X kit and it is only 1 watt lights. That seems pretty weak.

 

I think I've seen that light somewhere before...

 

Hmmm those look nice to me! And a good price. Thinking I might have to order them and give those a go. Even if i dont like them its only 20 bucks

 

Yea, the 4R build used the 9w and they look pretty good.

Hell yea! You're the one that first told me about that light. I think we ended up with the 21" instead of the 18", but damn it's bright and I love the fact it rotates!

Do it! They look pretty straight forward. I have a love/hate relationship with wiring, so I doubt if I will ever add any.

 

Changed out my 2 halogen lights in the front with some led 2x6 spot pods today. I'll see how they shine in the morning. They were cheap. 4 for 50

 

I'm tempted to tackle my suspension tomorrow after I get home. I should be home at noon, and need to be done by 4 at the latest. I'm wondering if I can get it done...

 

Hey guys! So I got myself a puppy dog :') he's half beagle/half Australian Shepard. I can't wait for y'all to meet him this summer wheeling and camping!

Damn he's a pain in the ass now though. I haven't gotten sleep for a week.

 

Awesome looking dog! Love beagals.

Plan to! At least as of right now that's my game plan. If I wasn't still in San Diego id tackle them but I don't have any of my tools to do wiring stuff

 

Thanks to Ben for the help today! Got both sides knocked out in about 3 hours total. As soon as we jacked the truck up more on the left side, my old shock gave out and pissed all over the floor! I guess it was about time I changed these!



By the way, anyone have a spanner wrench I can borrow?

 

Looks good Brady! Took less time than when I did mine. The through bolt and maybe getting the uca to the spindle were our biggest speed bumps. Lets brake those in

 

I'm in Wenatchee all weekend, but I'll see if I can locate mine when i get home

 

Thanks man. Hopefully it fits the holes in mine.

 

hopefully you can level your truck out better than me. Ive damn near broke my spanner trying to crank my drivers side up. I cannot for the life of me ditch the taco lean. Its hard to adjust mine, requires a 4ft pipe on the end to help turn the collar. Ive also scratched and fubar'd the wholes enough trying to turn the collar that my collar looks like poop.
