New Mod - Bull Bar and PIAA's ** NEW PICS!

Well I know this tread is worthless with out pics. But I figured I would let everyone know The truck looks a little differnet now. I was out delivering product last week and made the decision that if I am going to be using my truck for delivery of Truck Accessories I better put some more accessories on it. :) So I put the Westin Bull bar on it and a set of PIAA 520's I got the 520's aimed in last night, HOLY CRAP they are bright! and all I have left to do is tie the wires up and make it all look good on the inside (left the dash tore apart) I will get some pictures up tomorrow when it is sunny out. As it rained all day here today. But I figured that I should let you guys know the mods are going on... Next is the SuperLift I htink when I get my 285/75/16s (the 275's are about 75% wore out) so maybe in the spring time. :)

Yeah they are - They look sweet as hell and are easy to install. I was able to get it installed in about 15 minutes. There are a couple neg things though - You loose access to the front tow hooks when there are lights installed. I did have a set of KC Daylighter driving lights to install on the bar however they were to tall by about 1/2 inch so I had to go out and get the PIAA's which I am VERY happy with.

I will get htose picutures up tomorrow

ya thats why the slim lights where made the daylighters some time's just cant fit. but the daylighter design was only ment for the 150W sealed beam bulb becuase of how hot it gets its really not needed with the 100W and 130W bulbs thats why it can be made for the slim light and not the 150W

if you get a super lift go no less then a 305x70x16 the 285 will look to small you can acully fit the 285 stock on your truck with a t-bar crank

Man that bar looks a little to big for the ranger, it looks good but I think the safari bar is a better looking one due to the ranger size. Just my .02 cents. I am not jacking on your decision just my opinion.

She likes it huge.

ROFL

Bill -
that is cool that you voice your opinon - However I feel the exact opposite. I think the saffari bar looks very sissy and makes the truck look more like a toy. Where as the Bull Bar Makes it look meaner and more aggresive. But this is exactly why it is my truck and not yours. It is all good. Just differnet tastes.

The more I look at it, it really doesnt look all that bad. I would really have to see one in person really to get the full effect.

Sarah has a bullbar on her truck and it looks great. doesnt hang down as much as one would think and it is actually functionable.

HOLY CRAP and you guys complain about KC's being expansive you can buy a set of Slim titanium 130W cheaper then that!
