Had today off so decided to go and get the Nitto AT tires I picked up a while back mounted on the truck. Tires are 305 50 20 Terra Grapplers. Think I'm done with the exterior of the truck for the time being. I'm coming up on a year since I picked it up and just turned 4K miles. Mods to date include: Denali grill, GMC chrome front emblem, billet aluminum bullet antenna, billet aluminum/black anodized revolver chamber hitch cover, color matched LED signal mirrors, tow hooks, rear wheel well liners, Rigid Dually D2 LED driving lights, LED reverse bulbs, LED license plate bulbs, 2" Top Gun Customz level kit, Nitto AT tires, and debadged.

Very sharp looking truck. Hard to beat that color. :) Are those body siding moldings stock? I like those better than mine.

Truck looks good

 

How do you find the driving lights?

 

 

Thanks. I added more information on the lights below.

Thanks. Yes the body side moldings are OEM. My truck is Texas Edition package which has some extra chrome so I think that is where they come from.

 

Nice!

Thanks.

 

Maybe I missed it in your post, but what fog lights are those?

 

And nice pics, I'm loving the skyline in the background! :thumbs:

 

 

Thanks. There is a nice lot close to downtown that makes for a good backdrop on nice days. More information on the lights below.

Here is more information on the lights I'm running. They are Rigid Industries Dually D2 LED driving lights. The factory fog lights were underwhelming and I never used them so I decided to try these to supplement my lighting. I first mounted the lights behind the grill but didn't like how it turned out so moved them to the fog light location. Behind the grill would work great if someone wants to run a light bar. Think you could easy fit up to a 30". My truck came with factory fogs so I purchased a set of blanks. Cut square holes in the blanks the size of the lens of the led lights. Took the face plate off the led light and picked up some longer screws to account for the additional thickness of the blank. The lights are solidly mounted in the blanks and also attached secondarily from behind. The factory valence required very slight trimming to accommodate the depth of the led light housings. The led lights come with their own harness and switch but I retained the factory switch/wiring since the factory fogs are already fused. Picked up a 5202 bulb adaptor harness to use to plug into the factory wiring and wired in the rigid plug to attach to the led lights. If anyone is looking to do this I'm happy to answer any questions to help out. Here are some various pictures I took along the way.

Here are the night shots. The bushes are about 45 feet away from the front of the truck.

where did you get the light at? They are awesome. Cheapest i can find them is on amazon for approx $180

where did you get that antenna? I think that thing is sweet

 

 

Thanks. I got it from an individual on another forum who machines and sells them out of his house. It was around $25 shipped if I remember correctly. PM me if you want more specific information.

I picked the lights up from a seller on Ebay for $325 or so on a sale. What you are looking at for $180 are the Dually series, not the Dually D2 which is what these are. The Dually are 4 LEDs per light, come in a flood or spot light pattern and are 2,600 lumens for the pair; the Dually D2 are 6 LEDs per light, come in a driving or wide light pattern, and are 5,200 lumens for the pair. I'm far from an expert on any of this, just wanted to point out the difference so you don't buy the $180 pair and expect more.

 

X2 on where you got the lights... Would love to put some in the "breather" holes in my bumper.

 

 

Picked up the lights on Ebay, there a bunch of sellers on there with them. I think they'd be great in a bumper hole. I originally wanted a LED light bar instead of these to mount in the bumper slot on my truck but decided against that as the light bars are considerably more expensive. $500+ for a 20" bar and $700+ for a 30" bar. $300+ was a little easier to cough up for something I wasn't completely sure about.

    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
    • I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
