boardude's [YODAGAN] Build

Thanks broski. I'll find out soon if they're too bright. The mounts that you and Kris are using are supposed to be here Saturday.

 

Yeah, a few weeks away is good for us too. We should snag a few of the Tucson guys for sure. Do you know of any good Go Fast spots down there? I've heard there's a spot over by Florence called Gas Pipeline or something, but don't know of anything closer to Tucson proper.

 

@boardude who makes those front sway bar end links?

 

Which ones are you running on your pillars? How do you like those? I need to upgrade these next

 

I have Sports. Do yourself a solid and get the PROS

 

Cool, I'll start throwing some interest out there. Not sure around Tucson. The wash by Chiva kind of opens up but haven't navigated all the way down to see. But I'm open to exploring outside Tucson

 

They came with the Icons. They might sell them individually

 

If I am not working I want in on this little adventure.

 

Ah I think I remember you mentioning this before. So would you go S2 Pros or the XL Pros? The XLs are just so big, kinda want a low profile light up there

 

Schweet! I'll tag you and the other AZ guys once I get the feeler up

 

I had my S2 pros up there and it was PERFECT, but I didn’t like the squadron driving combo for fogs so I swapped them.

IDEAL setup for me would be:
A pillar- S2 Pro driving combo WHITE light
Fogs- squadron pro wide cornering OR XL80 wide cornering in AMBER

I want less hood reflection, hence the combo at a pillar, but I want a solid useable blaster of a light in fog location connected to my fog switch on my lights arm. That’s the only factory switch I use. Everything else is on the switchpro

 

Awesome thanks man! I think I'm gonna go with the S2 pros on the arms. Sounds like I need to get the XLs for the bumper to keep up with you and @16tunterd lol

 

Just a word of caution: I don't think the OEM fog light wires are of a heavy enough gauge to run 40w lights. When I was working on mine yesterday I was concerned about running 20w on those tiny wires. I finally found that OEM fog light bulbs are 19w so I figured 20 would be ok.

 

XLs would completely blow me out of the water......9,500 lumens? That's some serious light. You could shine those on a pile of wood and start a bonfire!
I wish we could put our trucks together and compare the lighting. I did get those silly covers removed and BD squadron sports in the bumper yesterday.

 

The S2s are there now by if I go bigger it will be way down the road. The squadron sports have been recommended time and time again, AND @BlueBottle has PROS in that location without any alteration. I would feel comfortable following his lead IF I ever do upgrade.

 

The lightbar we have is bigger than 9,500 lumens and if I could replicate that light in a pod then I’d do it all day long. I love the HUGE light output

 

Yeah, Pros are 40w. He definitely would know better than I would.

 

Anything with electricity eludes my minimal brain capacity

 

I could be wrong. He might have refused the circuit

 

We'll have to find out what he did. But, I'm guessing that if the wire couldn't handle the load your truck would start eating fuses like they were chicklets. Sent him the question.

 

Mmmmmm.....chicklets

Lemme know his answer

 

He said he got confirmation from BD that it's fine! Proof that I don't know squat!

 

I'm with you on the huge light output. Between the two bars I'm running about 45k lumens! I'm ready to fry some zombies lol

 

Lol my knowledge extends to "on", "off". Not sure how I even got all the relays and ghetto pro wired up correctly lol

 

Same here. I'm always amazed when I hit a switch and it actually works!

 

Badass truck man!

 

Thanks bud! I see you're also in AZ so maybe we'll meet up one of these days!

 

My superbump stops from Wheeler's should be arriving today

 

you gonna need them...

 

Lol yeah. Only got the fronts for now. Trying to swing the icon hydraulics for the rear
