And it confirms that the oem headlights are  NOT enough, even during the day.

Picked up a new battery. I had no idea how old the battery was that was in the truck. Sam's club 850 CC amps. 148 $ installed.

Started out for the lumber yard today and discovered the rear end was locked with the switch in the off position. Disconnected it at the the diff and it unlocked. We'll see if a new switch fixes the issue.

How do you disconnect it at the diff? That would be a good thing to know how to do in a pinch.

Cut frame horns and installed the new Evil front bumper! Next are the mirrors. More pics to follow!!!!!!! Selling the factory front bumper now. Will be posting it soon!

There's an electrical connector on the diff. I just unplugged it. When messing with the dash switch I could get the indicator light to turn off by pushing in on the switch and holding it but the diff didn't unlock. The diff did unlock when I hit +/-25 mph. I'm hoping that means the solenoid is good and it's just a bad switch. For +/- $25 I thought I'd just try a new switch before spending a bunch of diagnostic time.

This is the Trackmotive Heavy-duty Raptor CV axle. It's the Driver side but RockAuto has them both in stock, and there's no "Raptor Tax" on them.View attachment 445208

Do you know what they define as "lifted"?

I failed to check the rear sliding window when I purchased this truck in Dec. Sure enough it didn't work. Replaced the overhead console switch today and voila, it's working fine. $25 and half an hour to fix.
