Most video was test fire before moving out in the morning for convoy security. Had good times & bad times. But luck for me the good times a weight the bad.

Hey Orich, I meant to say thank you for serving our country! I watched your videos a couple weeks back. My dad, uncle and best friends dad all served during Vietnam. My friends dad was a helicopter door gunner

Yeah they were rumored to have a 5 minute life span. My friends dad's helicopter was struck by an RPG, after it was downed he was in a coma for a couple of months.
So, it has been about a week now since i've installed these lights, I've got to say that I've been pretty impressed. I keep going out to check them out, I think they look pretty fantastic. Here's another front view with lows & highs on

I think the next lighting upgrade will be a light bar under the front bumper where the push bar mounts on, there's a nice flat spot there and a hole already drilled which will be perfect for running the wiring.

Here's a DIY thread on fitting lights in the bumper like LMC's overpriced offering. About $20 in my world: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...mc-trucks.html

Does anyone have any links on performing this 3g 130amp alternator upgrade? I'm definitely interested in doing this!
Adding A+ is installing the 3g 130amp alternator setup.
A down side of a lowered vehicle is night vision driving, it seem oncoming vehicles head lights are more blinding then before.
That was the first thing, I noticed other then having to slow at RR crossing and drive way exits, dips at most the intersections. But when your young ya think it cool.
