Nice setup! What wheel size and offest are those? I'm guessing 18 x 9 and -12? Also, are those 35's or 37's? They look like they have a lot of meat on them.

Just adjusted the headlights down 2 full turns clockwise and did 1 full turn counter clockwise on the fogs. Will adjust more if needed.

Installed me Spec D headlights from K2 motors. Need to wait until tonight for output pictures. Right now, the DRL bar lights up yellow as I used Forscan to switch to turn signals for my DRL. When I unlock the truck, the white DRL bar comes on until I turn on the engine and put the truck in drive. I think I'll leave it this way for now. I may switch it later on.

Thanks! Yup 18x9 and -12mm offset. They're 35"x12.5" tires. Yeah definitely looks that way which was what I was going for. About to fill up for the first time since getting them and the lift on, praying for at least 13mpg when I do the math lol.

I installed the Sealight S1 LEDs today. I was surprised at how much of a PIA it was to get the original bulbs loose, and the last one to install was also very difficult to properly lock into place. I won't be able to fully test them until dark, but they all worked and look good in the daylight.

I have a question for you Ford service techs out there. How does the manual show the procedure for replacing these bulbs? I loosened the bolts and body fasteners in the wheel well, and it was not easy at all. I am just curious of the official proper way to do this. Thanks!

I think they do it the same way, as the OM shows. Except they have a skinny 17 year olde hang around for just that purpose.
I've got it down to just pulling the buckets and do it on my work bench. I can get the grille and heads out in about 1/2 hour, a whole lot easier for an olde arthritic guy.
