Had the day off and finally put the front diff fluid change to rest. By my count that should be all the fluids for a while. Preemptive research showed me two methods of getting this done. One by sucking the fluid out the fill port because of the proximity of the diff cover to the steering rack...

Thanks for the shout man! Troutman? You're close. My wife lived in Troutman when we first met about 13 years ago. Anyway, the thread is here. We've come a long way in a year or so.

Right. Buying from a dealer means I didn't talk to the last dude that owned the truck.

Gotcha. Yes, this could be the case for sure. No way of knowing, as I think I'm like the 5th owner of this vehicle and bought from a dealer not an individual. Hopefully the new pig tail is the ticket. Thanks for looking into it!

Hmm... Worth a shot. Couldn't hurt anything. The new H13 socket will be here tomorrow. Hopefully you're right and it solves any future issues. The socket on the other side does not have this burn mark. And yes, this Morimoto connector is still in tact, since it's new. It was the last one that...

Snapped these for you. OEM housing Back of assembly Sylvania H13 Nice pins and podding on the connector Truck side connector. OEM harness as far as I can tell. The discolored socket (Neutral leg) This was the isolator that was melted on the Morimoto headlight. If...

Ah ok. Was wondering where you were going with all of that. Jesus man you’re gonna have be go back in these for the millionth time??? Just kidding. Good thing I can do it blindfolded at this point. I’ll get that together for you after lunch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

But yes I don’t know what to make of it either. Thought about it being an issue with the truck but doesn’t explain why I have zero issues with the factory lights If it were. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes truck is used. But everything I’ve replaced or worked on, on it has been oem that I’ve seen. Truck was definitely a dealer serviced truck. Only aftermarket parts I’ve seen so far have been Moog wheel bearings up front and driver side CV axle. Everything else I’ve pulled off of it has been...

Melted red isolator inside the connected. The piece the pins stick through. Discolored socket on the truck. Some electrical fuckery. I’m a mechanical guy so electric is far from a strength of mine but I have a solid fundamental understanding. My theory was something was loose inside of the...

No sorry. Wish I would have taken a picture of the melted one. I still haven’t quite figured out what would make it to fail over time. Possibly being effected by moisture or vibration or something else. New one is in. Works fine so far. Did notice that the center lens looked cloudy compared to...

Very happy to read all of this gents. For real. I fully support the vendor. Unfortunate as how things went down regarding my situation, but them taking the time set the record straight means a lot to me. Shows character and integrity and at the end of the day, that's the only thing we've got.

you got it! Hopefully they're in your inbox. Take care.

I get that. I make no misconceptions about the type of fallout a post like this could generate. That's why I'm trying to be as transparent as possible regarding the entire experience. Why I made sure to put that I felt like I was being valued as a customer up to that point. To ensure that any...

Thanks brother! I appreciate that. But like I said, the goal was not to alienate or call anybody out. Just wanted to share in case it's useful to anybody. I make no intention to steer business away from a small business or American company. Honestly the last thing I'd want to do. But I care...

Always OEM with AFAIK OEM bulbs. Truck isn't new, so I don't know if they'd been replaced at some point but definitely no plug-n-play HID or LED in there. Just a Halogen bulb. I love that you guys came in here without a defensive or offensive posture and were interested in driving toward a...

Yes, pinpointed to the connectors on that side. Had to figure out the wiring schematic. Swapped headlights side to side, checked the truck side with a meter and was seeing everything I should be seeing. Pins on the Morimoto connector are extremely flimsy and get out of position very easily to...

All my interactions were with Adam Daley through [email protected]. Original order number was #13808. I appreciate the response guys. I reached out at least 3 times with zero response regarding this last issue.

All good. Fair questions for sure. I always interacted with Adam at 4x4 LEDs through his direct email. Pretty sure it's his company. Yes, installed myself. I do all my work myself. Consider myself very mechanically inclined. Not just two failures. Two on the same side. And I've definitely read...

First guys, I'm not here to bash anybody. This is to simply share my experience and lessons learned and those that want to read can do with it what you will. Background Late June 2020 - I placed an order for a set of Morimoto XB's and GJ motorsports 3rd brake light through @4x4TruckLEDs.com...

Replaced the window switch over the weekend. Was quite possibly the easiest thing I’ve ever done. Took less than a minute. Hopefully this cures my issue. I have the regulator assembly standing by if/when I need it but not in any rush to install that joker. Gear oil for the front diff came...

Also this tip I got (probably from here) to use hanging folders to organize the center console was MONEY!! Was a mess of papers before. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks man! I've looked into the window regulator job. Doesn't look too terrible. I've been in this particular door a lot. I've seen issues of breaking wires and issues with that harness, but I feel like I've taken a look at some point for some reason and didn't notice any obvious issues. From...

Currently at around 193k miles. Replaced driver side hub/bearing yesterday Went with a Timken unit and saved about $45 over Motorcraft. Looks like both the units I pulled off the truck were Moogs. Ironically enough Rock Auto charges $158 more for the Moogs than Motorcraft. No idea why. I...
