Well here's the latest I have done to my truck. It's been a while on this post but oh well I just got around to finally doing what I was going to do.
I got my digital camera working again it involved some tape engineering but it works for now.

Anyways I added 2 Hella 550's to my rollbar and welded on some light tabs to my bumper added 2 hella 500's to it.
I also made some windsheild brackets for some hella 500's which I only have one for now since the other one is broken from the last woods offroad run.
I'll be adding a second hella 500 light to the passengers side.



Closer view of the hella 500 on the windsheild


The bracket pretty simple 3/16" flatbar welded together drilled some holes and secured them with self tapping bolts



Got Light?

Looks good, as far as I can see in the dim lighting. Looks like you got some snow up there, too!

I know the jeep thing that's why I drive a Toyota.

Well I finally got some mall crawling flex pics of my junk:
Warning for dial up people pic intesnive

My front suspension setup is 5" sky-jacker soft rides in the front with ford f-250 shock mounts and rancho RS5012 shocks

The rear suspension is a set of 63" silverado leaf springs with a stock chevy shackle and a 8" budbuilt rear shackle with rancho RS5012 shocks





















My buddy John thanks for letting me use the fork lift.

The front drivers side didn't want to flex very much.





I think it's because the pitman arm is hitting the spring which it had bottomed out on the spring in these top pics.




Also my truck only weighs 3510 lbs right now. I need to add some more weight to it.

I honestly think it's pretty awsome flex for a set of bolt on lift springs.
