    Im loving this light bar. Which 42" version did you go with? The driving, combo, or flood?

    I went with the driving but I ended up changing the outer two lenses to wide so its essentially a combo now. No regrets, still a great light for the value. It vibrates a little on that mount but i don't think there's any way to avoid that since the mounting points are so far away. I would want to do the behind the grill mount if I could do it again to keep vibrations to a minimum.

    I’ve had this battery for about a year and finally got to installing it. Man these batteries are heavy AF!

    northstar battery + @Coupe battery tie down + GP terminals.

    Finally got to popping in @Adam AJT DESIGN shifter chrome delete. Was so easy. It’s a perfect fit. Clicks on and is super secure.

    That's an interesting filler piece you have in front of the shifter

    Great build thread, really cool to see how your truck has evolved over time. :hattip: Also, have to say I like the links to your first page for each mod; just as meticulous as your build.

    red is positive and black is negative. Is that your question? Sorry it wasn’t too clear.

    I wired up my light bar to my high beams via that relay. Temp solution until I get a switchpro setup.

    Sorry, I'm a big doofus. I guess I'm asking why are each of those connected to each of those white and purple wires.

    All the usual stuff!
    Did you have any marks rubbed into the paint from flares after you took them off? Is so what did you use to buff them out?
