    Why is my removed OEM front strut longer than my new OEM front strut?

    I know very little and have yet to work on suspension. But, it is interesting to note the difference between the two at the bottom of the damper, where it meets the big washer type disc. I don’t know the correct names for parts of a shock. More importantly I wanted to mention that besides that...

    Diode Dynamics Stage Series 3" SAE/DOT Yellow Sport LED Fog Pods Install [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787] Well in my defense the bumper does look pretty slick in that particular photo!! Haha. I was like, why did you get a new bumper?? I may end up with a steel bumper in the front and rear...

    That’s a good tip about the heat gun- I have considered it! Your rig is looking great! Nice shiny new bumper. So here’s a quick and dirt phone shot of the fogs. Just downloaded Tapatalk, and it will only let me upload poop quality photos. I also just installed xenon depot hids which I’m...

    Diode Dynamics Stage Series 3" SAE/DOT Yellow Sport LED Fog Pods Install

    So I got the lights installed and they look great. I'll try to add a picture today. What has me stumped is the fender liner. The main post about this that all threads on t4r.org link to seems to be deleted. I've undone all the screws and clips on the liners. But when I push the liner forward...

    Diode Dynamics Stage Series 3" SAE/DOT Yellow Sport LED Fog Pods Install

    I realized after I asked that the lights probably included the bolts:D They shipped faster than they predicted and are supposed to arrive tomorrow! Now I've just gotta look up how to best get in there and take the stock fogs out, gonna do the fender liner relocation at the same time to...

    Diode Dynamics Stage Series 3" SAE/DOT Yellow Sport LED Fog Pods Install

    Can't thank you enough for the help with this. It looks like I'm gonna have to order the same one and wait for it so I don't end up kicking myself for trying something else. I keep wondering if there is a way to drill for the bolt holes on the other vehicle specific brackets, but I haven't even...

    So lightwerkz has the vehicle specific kits in stock, but the universal kit ships from DD, like you said. I called and got AMAZING customer service from Brendan. So what I am trying to figure out is whether you used the metal mounting bracket in your install, or if your drilled hole attaches...

    Ah I see, now I get why you got the sketch adapter! Thanks for the help. I see Lightwerks also has a notice: "ALL SS3 PODS PLEASE EXPECT 4-8 WEEK LEAD TIME ON NEW ORDERS". So even though it says "In Stock", sounds like it may very much be not in stock. I'll call em tomorrow and if it's going to...

    Diode Dynamics Stage Series 3" SAE/DOT Yellow Sport LED Fog Pods Install

    So I'm going to get the same one you did think to be safe and avoid the "toyota" type bezel from potentially pushing the light further back or having to trim something / order the flat bezel if it doesn't fit. The thing is, on lightwerkz, they are all listed as different kit models, while the...

    Diode Dynamics Stage Series 3" SAE/DOT Yellow Sport LED Fog Pods Install

    Thanks, that's super helpful. And rad tip on the lightwerkz! You're right, I definitely may get a bumper down the road, so that's a good consideration. It doesn't say whether the bezels are interchangeable, although you can order the flat round bezel seperately, which implies that they are. I...

    Diode Dynamics Stage Series 3" SAE/DOT Yellow Sport LED Fog Pods Install

    Thanks for this! After pouring over crashnburn80's 50page fog thread on TW, which I'm sure also inspired you, I started looking to see if anyone has installed these on an 06-09. I'm gonna order them even though they are backordered and I want fogs NOW! Would you do anything differently with your...

    What is up with XenonDepot?

    Can you speak to the quality of DDM's ballasts? I was about to order an HID kit form Xenon Depot after much research and glowing reviews of their ballasts and overall quality, but after seeing these posts about them falling off a cliff I'm hesitant. Much has been said about the quality of...

    Overland Radflo 2.5 Coilovers

    Thanks. Definitely interested. Being out of work now for weeks or more is making any upgrade questionable. My biggest concern is that the 700lb coils and tuning that are optimized for a heavier rig will be too stiff for my currently unarmored V6. What do you think?
