Thanks!

It might get a 2/3 drop. Otherwise just maintenance, fix whatever iswrong with it and try to keep it clean. We have a 13 year old playing football, nine year old twin girls one in softball and one in cheerleading and a 9 month old son. Its mostly just to get them around, so primarily the wifes vehicle. Any mods would be reliability or comfort focused. Ill do led interior lights, led fogs, big three, trans cooler, external trans filter, vette servo. Someday a tune. Maybe an intake and muffler.

I replaced my 9005 high beam bulbs with 9011 HIR bulbs in my TYC Denali projectors.

Hi I'm also trying to get more output from my high beams. How did you like the 9005-->9011HIR? What brand did you go with?

Went and picked up some used low mile NNBS brakes. Going to rebuild the calipers and turn the rotors. In the meantime I'm going to order some ss brake lines.

I got them from here on Amazon.
If you are wanting to use them in OEM headlight assemblies it won't be a plug an play upgrade (the plug is the same, though). The tabs on the bulb have to be trimmed to make it fit.
If you have aftermarket headlights like I do, there is a chance that they will fit without problem (my projectors took them without trouble).

They don't have a massive increase in light, but they are noticeably brighter than 9005 silverstars.

Don't go with cheaper 9011 bulbs, as they need to be the HIR standard.
Mine are marked HIR1, and they are made in Germany. (You can see it in the pictures in the linked Amazon page above)

No problem, those are good plans the NBS Esky is a great truck as is doesn't need too much just the LED conversion looks great gives it the high end look it should have had from the factory imo

Thank you! I just ordered a pair to go in place of the standard 9005s in my depot projectors.

 

[Da90]

Yeah that's how it is currently. When I did my DJM control arms I had to zip tie the line to the control arms.

For the record i have purchased hirs from amazon and from rockauto. They are identical in the box. Philips is the only manufacturer for hirs.
