Talk to me about the wild peaks. Ride, noise, etc... I'm leaning towards the Falkens for my next set of 37s.

We love them. No noise, aggressive pattern and handles great.

Now not been to far off the road yet. But we had them on one of my previous trucks and will get them again.

Nice truck and nice work
I have a few questions .
1. Does the back glass just unbolt and bolt the new in or does it have to be sealed back up?
2.Did you notice a big difference with the led reverse lights and which ones did you use?
3. Where did you get the drop down screen?
Thanks

Thank you very much.

The rear glass has a seal that I picked up from NAPA not that expensive. It comes in a roll and just you press it on the window around the edge. There is a grove it goes in. Very easy but the old stuff is very messy.

The LED bulbs I love. They are definitely brighter to me. Another member on here recommended them in a thread they posted. I will try to find the thread.

The drop down got on ebay for I think $30 came with 2 head phones. Pretty cool.

Thank you.

They have atleast 2 wires or sometimes three. Red- Positive and black-negative or for 3 wires yellow- battery, red- switch and a black wire - ground.

Then usually 3 RCA jacks ; yellow - video , red - right audio, white - left audio. If there is only 1 set then they usaully are inputs, if 2 sets then one is input and other set is output.

If it has built dvd player you dont have to worry about the rca jacks. Or if you have a stock radio you wont use them. Some overheads do have a built in FM module so you can tune your radio to a station to play sound through your radio.

To mount, they usually have plates you slide on the other side of your headliner and screw into that. Mine did not, so I went to lowes got a small piece of wood paneling and cut just a bit bigger then the drop down then screwed into that.
