My brother went with the same light bar and 2 sets of rigid lights. Spot beams for the center and floods for the outside.

Lookin good. Keep the mods coming

fire240 02-02-2013 07:55 PM

Thanks. I have been pretty impressed by the lights from Rigid. Will be adding more of them as I go along.

I'm wanting to get the RC winch and hidden winch mount like you have. Have you had the opportunity to use the winch so far? How do you like it?

Great build! Keep it coming.

johnday 02-03-2013 07:38 AM

That's a very good way to plug the "black hole".
How about that remote for the lights, was that an item from Rigid as well?
:-drink

Cool! Sure beats running wire all over.:-drink

fire240 02-03-2013 09:21 PM

That it does. Don't have to run any wiring into the cab which is alot easier then trying to fish it through.

X2 here
I was just thinking the same thing.
Winches are a popular item around here, but I like the way you managed to tuck yours away nice and neat. Everybody here wags 'em around on the outside.

Great start to what looks like will be a very cool thread. You've got some good ideas going. :-X22

fire240 02-22-2013 09:19 PM

Thanks JT. Was an easy install. Just straightened up some wirinig today before work.

67nukeford 04-09-2013 06:40 PM

That wireless set up is cool Shaun, I didn't know they made anything like that. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your mods!

fire240 04-09-2013 07:08 PM

Thanks Pat. I just have to get teh time to work on it some more.
