Stock rear lights were catching water and starting to fog, decided to try and pair of Alpharex lights. Went with the smoked lens, I think it works with the white/black theme of the truck and it's not too dark.

Lights off:

So how is everyone topping off their nitrogen levels in their shocks that have schrader valves? Has anyone ever taken their shocks to their local shop and had them check/fill them? I’m REALLY not wanting to invest in my own tank , nitrogen ect… i have the no loss gauge so I don’t see why They wouldn’t top them off for me other than liability reasons. I’ve just always read that was the #1 reason why our shocks blow, not maintaining correct nitrogen levels

I just dealt with this over the weekend. Called many places that were unable/unwilling to help me. Ultimately had to drive about an hour to a small powersports shop that specializes in dirt bikes and they filled my shocks to 200psi for $20 each. I will say that my shocks were not installed on the truck and I would imagine you will run into more liability issues if you are looking to have them filled while installed.

Removed gauge needle and found the shaft cracked. Used heat shrink to hold it tight and reinstalled.

Replaced properly with gauge test. Tested to GPS and digital gauge, dead accurate.

The power sports shop was a good idea! Glad you got it figured out though ! I guess I will hit up my local motorcycle shop then! Thanks
