    @RainMan_PNW - Thanks Casey. The button remains in position, either stays pressed or extended. It is a push button that when pushed mirrors are folded and when extended mirrors are unfolded. So once it is turned off and pressed to unfold then the truck knows to unfold when started. Because I have both 2nd Gen and 3rd Gen I just checked and they both function the same.

    You should re-use the stock bulb socket. The new VLEDS harness should plug right in

    Check the build link in my signature.
    Ok. Then I’ve got a hunch that the DPDT relay would work basically that same way it does with the non-memory switch, except you’d need one in each door. Basically, you’re setting up a relay so that when the ACC is on, the wiring uses the “stock” configuration (based connects the factory wiring per the factory setup), but when ACC is off, it sends power directly to the motor to fold the mirror.

    I needed to make some brackets to mount my amber spot lights, but didn’t want to buy the brackets available by a certain company. Originally I used pvc mounted to the crossmember, but they just bounce like crazy.
    I removed the air deflectors, and started with cardboard, utilizing two of the points and a stud on the crossmember. After making the template, I cut them out of 3/16” aluminum, bent and brazed the bends, and painted flat black. Super sturdy now, they don’t move at all. 029C0570-1E3E-4286-998F-5C87CD5E86FE.jpg

    Just got my truck back from @dcsleeper408, thanks for another great install! :hattip:

    He installed new 6112s (pre assembled at 1.9"), 5160s in the back, and my new wheel caps. He also put in a strut shim to add 1/2" to the drivers side and the front is dead even side to side. (And diagnosed leaking cam shafts, at least the powertrain warranty is still in effect.)

    When I bought the truck it had some big strut spacers up front which I wanted to get rid of. Like Mark predicted, after putting in the 6112s, the truck is a touch nose high now. Next I will hook up my travel trailer to see how much higher I need to raise the back up. Just looking for a level ride when towing.

    Thinking of adding an HD Roadmaster Active Suspension and then seeing if I need a small shackle or not.

    Final numbers (fender to center of hub): Front Driver = 24 3/8", Rear Driver = 23 5/8", Front Passenger = 24 3/8, Rear Passenger = 24"

    Ok after continuing the thread, you have the V6 Extreme. You still use the bulb socket and it plugs into it.

    He has the V6 Extreme. His lenses are blacked out or they would be a hell of alot brighter. The turn as tail system will be going pre-order in a few weeks as well.
