    first thing to do.......change everything over to synthetic......blinker fluid too:D:D!!!!


    i thought i'd add..........how good are ipf lights?? i think they are made by arb......and these are the rectangle lights. they have h3 55 watt bulbs, so basically....kinda like my hellas, but not round.

    the synthetic blinker fluid is key to a long truck life

    make sure you change it every 5000 blinks! :D
