Cool, oh I forgot to mention, those fans are very noticeable. I can here them from inside the cab over the Duramax at idle. Either that says the duramax is a quiet diesel or these are very loud fans. :) LOL

Yep the fans are loud, i hear them when i click the unlock on my fob from outside, inside the cab before cranking it up

Just wanted to throw a quick update out there and let everyone know the lights are still going strong and I love them! I don't really hear the fans at all since I put them into the housing themselves and I would def buy it again.

Update on mine:

 

I still like these LED's. I did have to actually adjust the beams up. Once I did that, they throw out pretty good light. I have not had any high beams flashed at me. I've also looked at the lights from a distance myself and they are bright, but the projectors, I think, make all the difference.

I don't have projectors so was a little worried but until I decide to upgrade to them this was best $100 spent

You need to figure that picture uploading thing quick lol. Real curious on how they look. I have reflectors as well and doing a projector retro is a bit pricey now. I know ppl get all butthurt on putting hids or LEDs in reflectors. I live in mass and have seen countless hids in trucks minus projectors and get that it is not optimal, but I was never once blinded. Anyway curious on the LEDs you got in. My halogens aren't bad but ..definitely want to see better

I had to lower them some because my truck has a lift but I asked a random guy at Walmart to assist to see if they were blinding or to high (he had a small sedan) and he said it was good and wasn't high enough to blind folks. So in all projectors give good focus but this was a third the price and I am happy with the results

So wait... Are those projector or reflector headlights? I thought you said in a previous post you didnt have reflectors? They look way brighter. Are they a pure white light or a like a ice blue light.

Those are reflectors not projectors you can kinda tell from the pattern it throws. Also these lights are pure white. Here's how it would look with projectors.

I do like the pure white. I gave LEDs in my fogs from DD which are a 5000k light. Those are pure white as well

      I get the same results with pictures. Then I figure it out. Then I forget. Screw it.

      I guess I'm the only one on this forum who can't get effing pics to load here! Do you have to resize them to post, or am I just blocked from uploads?   I have the same luck with automotive electronics ... but this is the ONLY site on the net that I have this problem!   I'd post pics of what I'm working on ... but I CAN'T! 🤬       Just fabbed up the kickdown cable (had to extend the cable mount WAAAY out from the throttle shaft to get a full pull), and parts arrived for the fuel lines on the 940 carb conversion project. Should be able to drive this thing by the end of the day. If not for work, I'd have had this thing done SIX weeks ago.   Got the jetting sorted out last week. Had a real bad tip-in bog that I couldn't seem to correct. Friggin float height was over 11mm too HIGH! eBay purchase, so no wonder everything is screwed up right out of the box! I ended up with a larger dual-squirt accelerator pump jet anyway instead of the single. Also moved the 70 primary idle jet (4 sizes too big out of the box) to the secondary idle circuit, and installed a 57 in the primary. Runs great on the fuel bottle!    Still using the computer for ignition. Going to drive it first and see if I want to go through the project of installing an intermediate shaft with a distributor drive gear, so I can install a block-mounted distributor and run points, 100% computer free. I should do that anyway just from a simplicity / reliability / tunability standpoint. The electronics left me stranded last year a couple times! I can't tweak the timing to my liking right now because of the computer. Tried twisting the cam-driven distributor already ... and the damned thing just reverts back to where it was! That's infuriating. But if it runs well enough I might save that for next season.   Just driving it in and out of the shop to work on other projects, it feels 1,000% more responsive with the carburetor. Also fires MUCH faster when cranking. Can't wait to drive it and see if I got more than 114 ponies, lolol.

      Triumph makes me think of cars not bikes. Especially with model names like the TR7, that was a Triumph car model too. Peak TR for me was the TR250. You could retain the post-war roadster looks, with an optional surrey hard top, but with an inline 6 engine instead of the TR4's anemic 4-cylinder, but still have a 4 speed, optional overdrive.   I know almost nothing about Triumph bikes, except that they exist. Good looking bikes though.   I don't know if I could just have one vehicle. The Silverado does it all except for fitting anywhere. But it leaves a void in real driving enjoyment, unless driving an extremely large sofa is your thing.   What did I do to my 'other' (muslce car - which one!?) vehicle lately. I took my '23 SS for a drive. It's only got 1600 miles. I keep reminding myself I shouldn't be so precious about this car. It likes to be driven. Needs to be driven. Life is short and if I don't enjoy it, someone else will. The other half calls it "the garage ornament".

      A Clean 40" Light Bar Setup for the 2022+ Silverado 1500

      By mandrautomotive · Posted

      Hey everyone, Thought we’d share our 40" SLIM Light Bar setup for the 2022+ Chevrolet Silverado 1500 for anyone looking at behind-the-grille lighting options.   The 40" bar sits behind the lower factory grille, so it stays pretty well hidden when it’s off. The mounting position is also adjustable, which helps with getting the bar positioned properly depending on the grille.   A few details on the setup:   40" SLIM LED light bar Fits 2022–2026 Silverado 1500 Spot + flood beam pattern White, amber, or white with amber DRL backglow Adjustable mounting position No cutting or drilling required Doesn't interfere with the active grille shutters Vehicle-specific mounting brackets       It’s a straightforward option for anyone who wants the coverage of a 40" bar but prefers to keep the front of the truck relatively stock-looking. Curious what the Silverado owners here prefer — hidden behind-the-grille lighting or an exposed bumper-mounted setup?

      Yes. Absolutely. That doesn't mean I don't like and enjoy a variety of machines. I went for a time with no other vehicle than a 1976 Triumph TR7-V Tiger. Loved that bike and rode it 365 in any and all weather. I did not feel deprived of anything.
