Very nice man! You do have a lot of patience and attention to detail.

patience is actually my weak point lol. but thanks man

How close is the bottom link of the 4 link to the bracket on the axles. Looks damn close! Picture of it?

Not sure what you mean...?

oh, idk. i can take a picture but i know if i take the tires off it will droop all the way until the rotors sit on the ground so it gets good travel without hitting....not that i'd ever need it haha

Your switch backs are the same color as your LEDs, that's what I'm after, care to where the switchbacks came from?

Superbrightleds.com has two different versions of the switchback. The cool white and Amber that will match leds better and I think the other color was a warm white and Amber. It's easy to find and see in a computer. Read the description though.

I'm not sure which it is. All LEDs seem to have the same color in my eyes..
The only 2 versions of switchbacks I've known are AO (amber-off) and AW (amber-white) meaning they're always white when on, but once you turn the blinker on do you want the blink pattern to be AMBER, OFF, AMBER, OFF then return to white once the blinker is off or AMBER, WHITE, AMBER, WHITE

amber off looks better to me

 

[dsberman94]

You're probably right gotti. I think the description said the white led was rated at a 6000k color. I'm probably mistaken.

Umm....how did I miss this thread? Awesome buildup man! The fact that you did so much of it in your driveway is what's cool to me.

Thanks for sharing. Super cool truck.

just realized this pic is wrong haha. here it is, wouldn't let me edit it

not a lot happening past couple days... i swapped out my Interstate MT65 batteries for a couple MTP65s for the extra reserve power

and also got tired of that small edge that's at the headlight/hood/grille meeting point so i spaced it out a tad, like it much better

 

[Koda22]

Wow looks great!! Love the fix....makes it look a ton better!!!

I'm pretty sure if you hit all those on at once behind a small car at night they will think they have met their maker LOL

Any updates? The weather's actually been pretty nice the past few days here. I really should clean up my truck and take a few updated pics. Looking at ordering a 20" LED lightbar soon, I'll also get a 54" curved LED lightbar too. Any brand you recommend? I'd like them to match, so I'm probably going to buy the same brand just to make sure the light is close to, if not, the same. Have you heard of anyone having any regrets with their 54" curved bars?
