Clear has cured so put on the new 3rd brake along with some bright LED lights. Thanks to @Cornelius for the good price on his factory 3rd, which is this one after I painted it [emoji41]. This will work a lot better for my night time loading

Some pictures I took of the process, the MH1 projectors did not want to fit into these, getting those in securely and aligned correctly was a major pita but I eventually got emb18d66c97ab058e752bb52f5e77d5b82.jpgbeb692304ba31ba75f4c674db0383a34.jpge276b3a2937d3fa75187c4c16383c0fb.jpg0a1de9995cf0ef39ec24667654ac7a1b.jpga3a70fa709cac56e2024f4a7ecef3b48.jpg9f377a97b7d67fe9c384bce6f60c9695.jpg807c0a8299241909b33db54557dc5f63.jpgd415f997bec9d6b2453c2ac73fafe602.jpg

And with the low beams on, really diggin how bright they are and the switchbacks. I loved my amber corners so much I went a year of having these switchbacks without even trying them but I figured with this light set up the white would look better then the amber and dang I love these things6a7a54ef47da5bfcddc3747516b49219.jpg

Had a wheel bearing staring to go bad a while ago and been putting it off in hopes my shop would be finished before it got really bad, but no such luck. So I went to work in the driveway, got the new one installed and putting my caliper back on and couldnt get the carrier bolts to thread for the life of me. Took a look at them and of course, the threads are filled with fused aluminum [emoji2959][emoji2959] and of course again the tap n die size I need is one that I dont have [emoji58] so ordered the sizes that I need and the truck is sitting in the driveway as pictured which makes me wanna [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] haha gotta wait for my tools to arrive to get him back on the road. Always super frustrating when you start a project and cant finish it
