Very nice! Now do a retrofit on that bad boy asap the stock lighting is horrible Haha they have awesome quick retros with d2s projectors.... thatd be the first thing I did lol

I’ve actually been really impressed with the light output. I have the premium plus package so it has the upgraded headlights. I’ve heard the output on the regular lights is poor though.

Looking forward to an oil change. Wanna see of this stuff lives up to the hype..

I was able to get it at my local NAPA for the "discounted" price with no membership or anything weird I've heard before. Its like $130 for a case of 12. Let's see if it holds up.

Went to the local pick and pull and scored a new windshield washer fluid container (first since I bought it the low fluid light went be on. ) And found a couple sets of lights for the front floor area. So if anyone else needs a set I got an extra. Only took pictures of the lights. Oh well. The windshield washer reservoir was not bad to replace but be careful with the lines.

Fair enough I know a lot of guys retrofit the stock halogen lights. I havent really seen a lit of the upgraded lights. But over all joce truck I really like that style

Where exactly do these mount? Don’t they go into a metal bracket?

Had to throw 2" spacers on to get my 305/45s away from some brackets and put my 1" coil spacers out back to get my fenders away from them. Looks kinda neat I guess? Haha. Will have to stay like this until I can get some wheels with the proper offset to them.

If you’re talking about the rear shock bolts hitting the tires, you need to reverse them. It’s a bit hard to do but it gets them away from the tires. Also, an adjustable panhard bar will center the rear wheels side to side, adjustable control arms will get them centered front to back, and offset sway bar end links for the rear will get you clearance so it doesn’t hit the panhard bar bracket on the passenger side. Then you need to do the free travel mod so you don’t bottom out on the rear bump stops. It takes a bit of work to properly lower these but it’s better than having your rear tires stick out like that.

Already have the sway bar links on, tires were rubbing on the bracket for the control arms in the back. Definitely need adjustable panhard and control arms, no doubt about that. $75 vs $700 at the moment. I'm okay with some tire puff until I can throw $700 more at it without being murdered. Lol. Cam, heads, and TBSS intake almost got me dispatched in a quick way.

Edit: I've done the free travel mod as well, one of the first things I did. Even before the drop springs after seeing posts about it here. Plasma cutter and grinder were my best friends for about an hour.
