Finished up my electric seats. Also added seat heaters and seat coolers.

Sorry to ask the obvious, but how much light do they put out? Are they road legal or offroad use only? Do you notice a big difference when they are on?

Thanks.

I don't ever put them on when i'm on the street , even the lower ones. I only use if i'm in the bush at night really , or driving down FSR's in the dark. Each set is easily twice as bright as my high beams and a brighter more white light then halogens. So with lower 2 lights , the light bar AND the high beams on its kind of overkill , so to answer your question , yes... a massive difference , about 4 times as bright as my high beams... but gives you a nice wide range of light.

They are "offroad" only and not ment for the street but ive been running them for awhile and as long as your not being a dick driving with them on the street your not going to get hassled... but i guess if they wanted to since they arnt covered they COULD be a dick about it.

Bottom Duallys put out roughly 1600 lumens and the 10" light bar throws around 3700 lumens. I ordered a set of d2's to replace the bottom ones and they throw about 3000 lumens :eek:

http://www.rigidindustries.com/led-lighting/50231 <----- these new D2's are super bright for their small package

They dont draw alot of power , when we build our DH mountain bike trails up here in BC i leave them on sometimes for 4-5 hours no sweat .:thumb3:

Picked it up from the shop only to be ticked off to find the new fuel filter leaking and a wet rear main (check out the back bolt...)

Finally beefed up the gas tank skid with $35 of angle iron and my new $111 Harbor Freight flux core Welder. Hardest part is beating it back flat after all the rocks this summer. Pretty happy with it. Also tacked in a steering limiter to the lower control arm to keep my tires from rubbing frame at full lock. Next is beef up plates on the rear trailing arm mounts.

Tell me you got the shop to pay you back something for not tightening all hardware or at least show them that they're effed up and they lost a customer for life. Have they never heard of QC (Quality Control)? Considering what I work on, if this were to ever happen, I'd lose my job and face criminal charges.

Got some Weather Tech floor mats! I know its not the coolest mod but I like them Lol :)

These are one of my favorite mods to date. makes keeping the truck clean a ton easier. i had cheap semi-custom mats and dirt still found it's way underneath.
