i drive it now. I need to replace the CV rear driveshaft with the double cardon driveshaft I have; just need to put in new u-joints in the double cardon shaft before I install it. That will probably be a this week project.

Here is the night pictures of the light bar. The first one is with flash on. The second 2 are without. My camera sucks at night pictures.





Here is the 2 video's I have. I need to replace the belts before I make a complete walk around video. Hopefully tomorrow night.

This thing shines its lights just above my high beams. I am going to adjust them down slightly when it stops raining.

Awesomeness, is it set-up so they are all pointing out straight or are some on the ends angled out a little bit for a bigger beam pattern?

They all go straight out. I am going to adjust them so they are aimed down a little bit.

It was going to happen this weekend, but I don't have the transmission yet. I bought a M50D-R1 from a member here and am awaiting shipment.

I doubt I jump her. That would be too much on the Dana 28 and 7.5.
