    Agreed that trying to find credible sources of lighting information is a real challenge, lots of misinformation, bad marketing and unqualified people out there pushing products.

    JW Speaker also have a fantastic kelvin rating, the units I had were around 4300-4600k, practically unheard of in the LED headlight market. Slightly OT, but you might find this post #456 interesting comparing the Evo J2s vs Eco J3s, its for 7" rounds so does not apply to Tacomas though. For the round Evos, even though the J2s had higher peak intensity, the J3s were nicer to drive with as they had a fuller beam pattern.

    Sorry just saw this now! It’s actually a rough country 4” drop bracket lift. Also has extra leaf in the rear which gives it that extra bit of height at the back.
    With 33” cooper stt pros.
