What did u do to your raptor today?

Does anyone know (or wanna spitball) who makes the brightest replacement grill lights?

I got some smoked ones about 5 months ago and I came to realization I hate them.

Morimoto is my spitball contribution

There's a steel rim that's used to hold the rubber boot on, but definitely no C-clip. This sucks, because with 148xxx miles on them, the balljoints are definitely worn. I was planning on replacing them so I could have a complete Gen 1 suspension to sell. But if these cannot be replaced, then I've got no uca's to complete the package. Instead, I now have a pair of overpriced fu cking horseshoes.

What do you hate about them? I’ve been eyeing those for my truck.

I got the exact same set for my corner markers and they're just fine I like them a lot. I got these and man they're just not that bright, objectively they're fine. I only replaced stock ones because on burnt out.

Stock part number is AL3Z15442C and goes for about 45 minimum a pop, so 3x is 135ish. No thanks. I'll eventually roll the dice with the Morimoto @HighwaySentinel posted, I have their headlights anyways... I'm in no rush right this second.

The ones I ordered originally were: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08VW3W198/?tag=fordraptorforum-20. I have the marker lights from the same posting, and like I said they're just fine. But these aren't bright at all.

Started the timing cover replacement. Previous owner JB welded the hole made by the failed tensioner pulley. Still not as bad at what TomDirts previous owner left him

I made a cheap mid-ship mudflap. Hoping it will help with roost, in reality it'll probably fall off at the first rock and poke a hole in one of my rear tires.
