I'm kinda digging those. On the front they have a flat wheel bearing cap that will fit behind those wheels so you can put the center cap on. I put them on my girls 94 gmc.

I wasn't too sure about them when I got them. Traded them with a 2013 2500 bumper I've been wanting to swap on, but when I put them on, I fell in love with them. I was looking at flat caps, but I need to get my calipers out to measure mine so I don't buy the wrong ones.

I got that from a few diesel owners while I was there too. I just told them "**** a diesel and the expensive ass maintenance and repair bills. I am happy with my gasser. If you wanna buy me one and maintain it I'll take one, otherwise shut up."

Also got alot of compliments and instagram followers lol

Keep forgetting to update this thread but the truck finally went back on the road last weekend. Been driving it around most of the week.

As far as working on it. I replaced my leaky water pump the other night

Also replaced all the ****** old worn out stock hose clamps for these nice new stainless t-bolt style clamps to help prevent any future leaks again.

I built the lights myself this winter. Using a set of mini h1 projectors and XB led halos from the retrofit source. The halos will actually change all different colors and do a few different patterns.

There a right up on this?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk



No sorry I didn't really do a right up on it. It's not to hard to do though as long as you have a Dremel and there is lots of other write ups online for projector swaps. All you really never need to do is Dremel out the bulb holes slightly bigger to fit the projector through and another small hole for the high beam solenoid wires and also halo wires if you add the halos.

The hardest part is making sure you get everything lined up right before you seal them back up.

Doesn't seem too difficult. Do you have any pictures of the light output?

Definitely, if you don't mind anyway. I've looked at two write ups on the forum, neither of which the pictures would load.

Updated 1 i started a little while back.

Also, for stripping chrome, the best thing I've found is oven cleaner. The shrouds though, if you don't want chrome, buy black. Super pain in the ass
