    More pics. Maybe I should use Tundras Live, but this is easier for me. (disclaimer) None of these pictures have been edited or retouched to enhance the sky blues, the dirt browns, and tree greens. It is what it is, as taken for originality as it was taken. Will add comments for pic tomorrow.

    There should be maybe four more weeks for mushrooms with all the rain. Can only get better. I will show which ones to take pics of but not eat too.

    After looking at the pics, I really dislike my chrome nerfs even more than before. Going to take them off Sunday and put on Craig's List for $100 OBO. (Going shrooming tomorrow)
    I need to do something with my exhaust pipe. Maybe look for a decent tip. Pocket flares probably too. Need more money tree seeds.

    I am also proud to announce that my 5 month old grandson is a little Marine on full 24/7 active duty:

    DISCLAIMER ALERT: I am a life long Dodger fan. Still remember my first Dodger game. 1964, LA vs Phillies. Sandy Koufax pitching. My grandfather was a contractor, masonry, 260 masons, lath & plaster, working for him. (My grandpa was also 31 degree in two different Masonic lodges in Southgate, CA. A real mason x2) He had 20 season ticket seats behind home plate for years. I remember Doris Day was there that night. I was eight. I behaved so well my grandpa took me the next night. Don Drysdale was pitching. The Rockies suck. Traded Tulo. Toronto is now on a run for the playoffs. The Rockies are on a run to ????? Rockies need pitchers bad. I am offering up my 5 month old grandson for try outs (not just active doodie future jarhead) Nobody can hit his change up:

    Yea in CO you can be whatever baseball fan you want. Rockies are not very good. It was a fluke that we made it to the World Series in 2007. My son has a mean pitch at 3 and could join with your grandson.

    I root for the Broncos (unless they are are playing GB, Seahawks). Like the Nuggets. Love hockey/Avalanche. Soccer? What's that? I do like Coors Field and fully loaded Rocky dogs. Do they have Pony league Baseball here? Much better than L League IMO.

    For what it's worth, had oil changed today. 7.4 quarts to fill line. Bought Unistruts for bed rails. Will do install tomorrow. Too hot right now. I was told that the four piston calipers on the 2nd gen and up are made by Brembo. Anybody to confirm this?

    Picking this Bar up in the morning in Broomfield. Used to be the home of Storage Tech. (High tech storage drives) We used to go up to Broomfield once a month for a week to provide calibration services. (5 or 6 of us) Now out sourced overseas. Before they left Storage Tech employees trained H-1B low info foreign "engineers" to do their jobs. ( for less money) Liking Trump.

    Yeah I'd like to get ahold of the six step ones, so I can ditch my tube steps. Found a place down in Sterling that sells Ranch Hand stuff and came real close to ordering the same grill guard that you have.

    The grill guard is definitely well built. Sure the steps are of the same quality. Check Craig's List. There were two Ranch Hand Grilles for sale on Colorado Springs Craig's List a couple of days ago. One for $450 and the other was $400.

    22" LED Light Bar install pics:

    CAM00318.jpg
    CAM00320.jpg
    CAM00319.jpg Told Ed the only thing I didn't like about the harness is the switch which he is going to have changed. Told him it was a little cheesy. Not a big deal since most of you guys like the OEM style anyways. Told Ed the same thing. He may be able to find a decent source for OEM style push button switches too. This $20 harness is actually rated to 150W, not 130W as I stated previously.
    CAM00326.jpg Right size gauge wire with 40A relay
    CAM00321.jpg Used my own brackets
    CAM00334.jpg
    CAM00322.jpgMore than enough wire. Had to cut off excess wire and re terminate. No big deal.
    CAM00323.jpg

    CAM00336.jpg
    CAM00333.jpg
    CAM00332.jpg

    Definitely bright. I submersed the light in a Homer bucket bucket for a few seconds with no apparent adverse affects.

    I will do a running test thru the upcoming months and see how good these lights are and report back. I can say that the warranty for these LED lights may get pushed to three years. I have a camera with some decent sensors and this 22" bar flooded out everything. Going to purchase some more lights of different styles from Ed and test them out too.

    Chrome tube steps suck or sure. I understand that a lot of people like them, not my cup of tea.

    Don't you mean within a few minutes? :cookiemonster:
    Nothing better than to be up in the mountains here and listen to the thunder echo off pretty much everything. Can go from 80+,90+ down to 70 degrees or lower in minutes. (Never,ever hide under a tree unless you like to get zapped.) Same thing applies if you want to get adventurist and go above above the treeline after noon. No place to hide from lightening. Thunder is "sound" and is cool because you hear it. Lightening is what actually F's you up. Only a couple billion volts instantly.:eek: ( You ever wonder why golfing in the afternoon in Florida is half price in the summer thunder storm/hurricane season? YOU could possibly DIE.) (As in dead)

    I love baseball period. (Love college football >Oregon Ducks, not Argon, that's a gas (Orygun) A lot of parents are shying away from their kids getting involved with baseball and Pop Warner "real football" due to fear of "potential" injury. Maybe it is better to let them play soccer "kick ball". Worst case scenario is kids can learn how to not score, fake an injury to draw a bogus yellow flag, and then brag about how they were able to at least get a tie "game" after 90 minutes of running around willy nilly. Disqualifier: I am old school. Nowadays all participants/kids get a least a ribbon so they don't feel bad. Bull S**t

    Mounted the same back up lights as Sean and others. There is a slight difference between 2nd and 3rd gens. I need to go to ACE tomorrow and get 2 longer self threading bolts which will allow me to use the 3 washers to give the lights enough clearance/distance to be able to aim them properly. Also the wires on my lights are about 3 inches too short to splice into existing harness. Not a big deal. Finish it with pics tomorrow. I was to busy looking at this today :

    CAM00375.jpg Not boring: Bronco cheerleaders. (very good excuse to not finish lights) I think there was a Bronco/49er scrimmage going on somewhere.:headbang: Had to use cell phone. No cameras, iPads or phablet cell phones allowed during practice.:laser:(If I was only a couple of years younger):devil:

    Good knowledge. @csuviper and I were looking at his (2nd gen) rear bumper to see how they would line up.

    Not a big deal. I'll take some good pics and post unless somebody beats me to it which is OK. Was able to use existing bumper/brace mount bolt. Was just too short to allow enough clearance w/washers to aim lights.

    We're the wires the same color as the install thread I posted? If so I will update to 2007+

    Haven't verified the wiring yet. Will try to finish up after work and give you an update. You will need two longer bolts which will replace the ones that are used to attach metal brace/bracket at light mounting point similar to Sean's. You will see that there isn't the extra hole that Sean used to run the light wire thru. Still not a big deal. The longer bolts will allow you to add some washers/spacers to drop light low enough to aim correctly. Probably three or so washers like Sean used. Thinking 2nd gen wiring should be same (so it probably won't be :cookiemonster:)

    Installed. What a PITA!! MY ex called late last nite to ask me to pick her up today at DIA around noon. Flying in from Nashville. Wants to see her new grand son. The only positive with that is that I had plenty of time to practice "awkward silence" while I am taking her home.

    Here are some 2nd gen pics that may help. Not the greatest. Blue/White wiring is the same. Blue is +/ White is -. There is only one blue wire and only one white wire:

    CAM00383.jpg
    CAM00385.jpg needed 4 washers to act as spacers.
    CAM00379.jpg I had spare wires, the white (my new +) was spliced to the Blue w/red stripe (+). The green wire (my new -) was spliced with the White w/black line. I had to add the wires since the wires from the lights were too short.

    Tempted to add a pair inbound. Will have to drill a couple a holes. The outer lights would be positioned at 45 degree angle, maybe less to get a better rear "field of view" so to speak. Still no relay required. Would be drawing only approx 3 amps with 2 pair.
