ICON Texas Raptor Run 2013 OFFICAL Thread

I have a 20" rigid. A set of d2s and two 35 watt HIDs. I can't out drive them. Anything more would just be fluff.

I don't think you need any more lights... If you can't see with what you already got you're in trouble...LOL

I am afraid of the dark Lol...ummm have another switch bank with open slots...have a big alternator installed....guess we only have one choice....more lights..LMAO

I was surprised several times by turns and big steps when all I had were stock lights.
Now I have enough light.
Wait. You can never have enough light. I really wish the Death Star wouldn't have been destroyed. That would put off enough light.

I run a 160 alt to run lights and the compressor, with an odyssey battery.
The 2 50's only pull 30 amp each, but the 4 crap lights on my bumper pull that and don't put out much light.
I've gotten 90% of the wind noise out of the 50's.

That 10% I haven't got is still annoying as hell

Pull the top back a bit, if it still makes wind noise, try wrapping a 1/4 nylon cord around one or both of them. That will kill the noise.

The best I have got it to quiet down to, is by having less than a centimeter between the two for the adjustment, and as low on the windshield as legally possible.
The wind noise I hear now is easily drowned out my blasting my newest Hannah Montana single!
If that doesn't work, I listen to this.....

I just bought a white raptor to take to TRR.
Like I've said before. White raptors look clean.

Well...your right, we have a good setup now and I don't have any real issues.
Have thought about some small LED bars set up for turning lights. We have gotten into some slow tight stuff on some trails out west that we were turning hard and looking out the window with a flashlight cause all the good stuff up front was lighting up a hill about 200 yards away...LMAO

Have thought about switching some stuff around if we get a new bumper setup, Have some ideas there, we will see.

Just like adding Fluff I guess LMAO....its all good!
