I got to get around to doing mine. I'm being lazy. A shop down the road from me told me it was 300 bucks just to lift the front end of mine with my rc 2.5 level. Not bad because it included the front end alignment.

But over the years of building my srt4 I probably saved 10k in not paying shops to do my work.

The level is so easy to do. Very straight forward. Save yourself some more money and get your hands dirty. Only thing I paid for is an alignment.

yeah keep us posted and I like how you can return it with no questions asked

 

I seen these light bars but I also seen that theres only a few reviews on them. im a little scared about that.

Yea Amazon is awesome.

 

In regards to the light bar, I was a little skeptical at first due to the few reviews, but I look for something that has a certain type of projector like this one, breather terminal, already has connector installed, and the mounts this one has are what I was looking for. Plus it's curved. Also, there's one review for the curved one that was pretty convincing. Also had pictures. Sold me there. In addition the cost was right, so I'll either like it and keep it or won't like it and send it back for a full refund. Win win.

Got my new light bar in today. 30" curved combo pattern. I'm switching this out for my 30" single row light bar. I'll post up more pics and info when I get it installed

Love my keurig. Makes it super easy for a Quick cup of coffee in the morning before work.

Not sure yet. Thinking about trying to mount it on my quad. Might be too big. If not I'll either try to sell it on here or just return to Amazon

So I got my bar on. Screwed up on my measurements, bar is a fraction of an inch too high. I need to move it down, but ran out of time today. I'll fix it another time and get it centered. Still pretty stoked about it. I'll try to get some output pictures up later

Looks like it will be perfect once you have it lined up! Dosent look like the AT grill will block it much! very nice!

Oh it's not that bad! I would just keep it. It still looks bright as ****!

Does the curved one follow the contour of the grille pretty well?

Pretty much perfectly. I will say though that my grill does press up on the light bar just a tad. Grill still locks in place tho and the fact that it's up next to the grill keeps it extra sturdy. Not that it was going anywhere due to the steel plates I used to mount the bar. The straight one I had in there I felt lost a good amount of light because it was pushed back from the grill. As you can see in the pics, the fact that this curved bar follows the contour of the grill and slightly presses up against it, means it will lose very little light output.

 

I had some pretty good testing with the light bar tonight and all I can say is wow. Completely blows the first one I had out of the water. Has an amazing flood output and with the bar being curved, the spot beam shines out far and wide. I took some measurements today so that this weekend I can bring the bar down and center it perfectly in the grill. Essentially all of the top row of LED's was blocked tonight, but it still easily out shined my previous one. I would recommend this light bar to anyone.

 

I will get output pictures this weekend once I finish with the bar. I will take some additional pictures of how I mounted the bar so if anyone is interested in them I should have them available.

    • There you go again.  Preaching your politics and worse case scenarios.  And what are you doing to make the world less polarized? 
    • Maybe.   Maybe.   I don't want to be the one that needs help and can't get it when I need it. That is a legitimate complaint, and how they respond to those legitimate complaints is a big red flag to me.   I don't care how good the product is their conduct is subpar. Some people are fine supporting that for the sake of getting the product they want. I'm not.   To be fair, I haven't seen or touched their product in person to determine for myself the quality of it. I'm not offering any opinion on that either.
    • So if you do nothing and they act on their threats like death to America or Israel. And possibly a nuclear war. Whoever survives wonders why didn’t they listen? Or we do something like every President has said they can’t get a nuclear weapon. We’re at the 10 yard line and it happens the time is now or never. I think I’m ok with paying a little more for gas for awhile. It’s a shame that we now live in a world that’s so polarized. 
    • 4-5-6 fails due to design.  Not enough clutches and not enough piston to clutch surface area.  Also the backing plate can bow.     I'd say converter is two part.  The design of converter chosen, and factory tuning of it aka slipping it in D (also L6) for AFM purposes, as well as locking it up in 2nd gear, sometimes 1st, also it will partially lock up at light loads.  All because CAFE/fuel economy requirements.  A billet converter on the stock tune might hold up better, but would still be subject to the stock tuning and how its designed to lock or partially lock.     The most baffling part to me, is the 2007-2013 6L80s didn't have the failure rate the 2014-2018 ones do.  I've been where I work for almost 17 years now, and I recall maybe 3 or 4 of the 07-13 transmissions getting pulled for something.  14-18 on the other hand, it was at a minimum one a month being opened up.    If I had to guess, I'd say the tuning for the gen 5 engines/6L80 setup and its fuel economy goals had a good bit to do with it.  Also, it was bankruptcy time during these years, so I'm thinking some cost cutting was done for the launch of the K2XX trucks.  See also now the 10 speed valve body issues (more cost cutting).  They blow out some mesh screen in the spacer plate, undersized check ball, and the feed limit valve was aluminum and wears out prematurely.         I don't think it was the HP jump from the gen 4 to gen 5?  The 6.2 in the 07-13 trucks was good for 380-400hp during its life/states of tune, and the 5.3 did 310-320hp.   
    • All this might be worth it had we actually recovered enriched uranium, a WMD, or an actual nuclear deal with oversight. This is a flub of epic proportion, and they all know it.   $5.10 at a station reporting $4.99 last week. Here we go....
