    They just came in today, so not yet. I'm putting a 40" flood on the back of the rack and the 40" combo up front. The cubes are going on CBI ditch brackets, and I'll have a 20" in the grill.

    Probably not as much light as my 55W HID's, but it will be instant clean light.

    Thanks bud. I'm trying.

    I'm not wanting to make light bars a big part of my business, as everyone and their mother are doing that, but if there's a buck to be made I'll give it a shot.

    He showed it to be the last time we went fishing. Plus the green light is supposed to be good for hog hunting.

    I think green light is supposed to be the color light that your eye doesn't have to focus that much in the dark?

    Question for y'all:

    I'm going to run wheel spacers for awhile until I buy new wheels with a bit more backspacing than my current set. So with that in mind, does anyone have experience with ECGS spacers? I'm inclined to use their spacers since I can get them in 1.0" width as opposed to 1.25" which is the minimum I've seen from other manufacturers.

    I haven't seen anyone run ECGS spacers, but with that name I wouldn't have any issues trusting them.

    I forget who, but someone does make a 3/4" spacer.

    That would also be an acceptable width.

    I don't have any experience with ECGS but before taking a chance I thought I'd ask.

    AH. That's who is the other spacer manufacturer. Couldn't remember the name. Thanks Kase.

    IIRC, Bora is well regarded, yes?
