Re-positioned the blackhawks that I had facing forward for side lighting as you see here:

To facing to the rear now:

And been trying to figure out where to mount the new Baja Designs Squadron Pros wide cornering and it went off like a light bulb where to mount them, pretty happy with the location using an existing location and bolt, yeah!:

Now just have to wait for the other one to come in the mail from the mixup that Devin took care of with awesome customer service then I can get them hooked up.
The rear lights on:

The wife came out to see what I was doing and finally noticed the Vision-X hood cannons that I've had on since TRR, too funny. Of course I am saying, What?, What? Her only comment, geez you spend so much of OUR money on this truck! LOL

Are those light facing to the sides and to the rear to see where you've been? [emoji12][emoji23]

Have plenty of light straight in front. I am lacking light when going around corners and when sliding. Don't care much for looking out the side windows when cornering and its pitch black where you are going. This will solve that.

Rear lights are for backing up and for the poor soul who might come up on me in the dust cause I drive so slow, don't want to get rear ended. Wait, drive slow, nope but I could get stuck and be stopped.

Or the sorry soul that has no backup lights and has to backtrack 100 yards in the pitch black?

Road Kill, can you offer more details on this quote? "Found a mud pit... And one snapped winch rope and one pretty Dodge Ram later got out."

I'd also like some details. Looks like a trip to get some fire wood and found a muddy spot to hit that sucked you in. With those rocks there, I'm surprised you didn't bust a side step.

What winch do you have?
Any idea why the rope snapped?
Judging by the pics, there wasn't much around you to winch to.

Nailed it... I have the Recon 10.5k which we hooked up to the fence and was just about out when the rope snapped. I have an ADD bumper and the rope frayed on the backside of the plate where the fairhead bolts to.

So fix either cut out the plate in the bumper... Or what I'll probably do is since I was looking at Factor 55 before this, double up the fairheads one in the front and one on the back.
