    WTF!, ok, spill the beans why you are having these bad ideas and who gave them to you. We can find them and take care of them. :fenforcer:

    My first set was a spot pod from Iggy. My current set is a diffused pod from Iggy. Spot was too small of a beam for my liking. I would recommend flood, though I do like my diffused, I don't need it to throw light that far out.

    Not the best pic but you can see if you turn the pods out far enough, you get minimal hood splash. These illuminate pretty well and i was enough light to illuminate everything from the side of the bumper to just past the side mirrors

    Went from 3rd Gen Taco to 3GT4R to 2nd Gen Taco and finally a V8 4GT4R.
    This idea may be on the right track.

    now i have to figure out why my driver side headlight keeps going out... everytime i start it up, the headlight is out. i pop the hood, wiggle my hand around the wiring behind it a bit, and it lights right back up. havent had the time to really get in there and check it out. definitely need to in the morning though. dont want my girl driving after work tomorrow with a headlight out.

    Yeah I have no idea how to put them on in reality. I’ve watched some videos but I really don’t have the tools to do the front back and leaf springs. My friend owns Sweir Tire in Ripon and was going to have them do it and the alignment, is it easy enough to do it at home?

    Btw I just bought my daughter a ‘99 Wrangler TJ v6, I down-sized from 35’s to 33’s for her as the wheel base is short and it was a little squirrelly even for me when I drove it. So I’ve got five 35’s for sale if anyone is interested, or knows someone. 35x12.5x15 Goodyear MT/R, pretty badass tire with a ton of tread.
