Installed new housings today. My old ones were the stock chrome and the lenses were fading. So I found these online and ordered them. Rivet grille comes in Wednesday. Between the light housings and the grille it should really change the look for the front end of this truck.

It was in four wheel drive and I had it disengaged but you know how the truck has to disengage the transfer case so you have to move a tiny bit? Well that's when it snapped.

My pad switch turned into an entire front brake job, new caliper bracket, new guide puns and boots, new rotors, new pads, greased everything up and slapped it back together. Had to get to a training session, so I didn't have time to do my links.

Yeah, I just blew it up and looked at it. I need to switch my lenses out still. But I'm taking a break from doing anything to the truck for a while. Unless something happens and I come into some mod money, it's pretty much at a stand still for a while. Unless one of my headlight bulbs magically blows out, then I'll either get halogens or LEDs.

lol. He'll accept all your offers, but not mine. What a *****.

Oh well, I got mine for $51 shipped from here:

Take note, this specific style is actually not the latest generation of these lights, it's just the best known generation.

There's a new generation out already and a newer generation being worked on.

In the comments I put that a buddy of mine got them from him for $50 and I was really impressed so I was hoping to get them as well for the same price. There were only 3 left so I guess he just said screw it and accepted it lol. Sometimes you get lucky sometimes you dont.
What are the other generations of these?
