    Ha! The shame!

    Every year a mate sends me a photo of sheep…… asking if I am homesick?
    I'm Scottish, there's no escaping it!

    I made a few christmas cards for mates back home. The above was a variation of that card.

    Here is the original photo in my driveway. NAESHEEP.jpg

    Consider the weight on your rig while you are building it. Heavy equals poor performance gas wise and puts added stress on many components. Shave the weight where you can and you'll be thankful you did. Just some advise.

    Aside from looks, what research have you done. Best advice my dad ever gave me was, “Make an informed decision son.”

    they are actually warn lights. picked them up at their hq on a mass clearance sale since their marketing team did a poor job advertising their lights. it was a mix of rebrand rigid/arb lights. they fit the arb covers like a glove
