Time is winding down (10 days) for our annual meet here in MO, and I'm trying to get the little things wrapped up in my spare time. Fluid changes and install a new shifter boot is about all that's left to do after whats been done today.

Installed a couple 100w long throw lights on the bumper where the PIAA Fogs were on temporarily. I drilled a mounting hole in the bumper mount plate and fit the PIAA's down low like they should be. Ran all new wires and relays to both and used tube for all the wiring.

I really like how this looks now. I used a mini 5 pin relay I had laying around, but they are numbered different than the larger style, so I looked on line and found this guys thread on another forum. Very nice explanations of all kinds of relays, and how to test, wire, and put to use. http://www.fordforumsonline.com/forum/electrical-lighting/4284-understanding-relays.html

Didn't do much wheeling this past year, and did a lot of wrenching in that time. Now it's time to go out and enjoy the fruits of my labor, and just do repairs as they happen.

Pics up in a bit :

Wicked mate, I'm getting itchy feet just thinking about getting out to the track's 'n' trail's.

The new and improved looking front end.

Side shot to see the depth of the cans.

All purdy looking. (still needs the winch in there tho)

The full Monty! lol

These lights are nice and bright, and with the pair of 100w on the roof, it's pretty awesome! The 80w fogs are amazing where they are mounted now. For 80w these are unreal how well they work.


Until the next Mod........Wheel safe, carry a big wrench, and don't forget to pay your tow insurance! :

Damn awesome looking spotties It can be a bugger to get everyone organized nowaday's to hit the bush. Not like being 17-18 and trying to get everyone back to town after a weekend camping trip.

Bumper look great. Just need a winch to feel that hole.

 

[lynchy wa]

Them recon jobbies look mighty fine.

 

[gmanpaint]

Thanks everybody. I really really like this set up, but it still needs a skid plate and of course the winch to complete it. I'm almost there!




Congrats on going elite Foxracin

Turned the contrast as far down as it would go to cut the glare from the lights.

4-100w cans & 2-80w yellow fogs.

 

[lynchy wa]

AAAAARRGH...Bright light's, bright light's.

 

[CDW6212R]
