Finished up another project this week. Took a couple tries as there weren’t any instructions from Foutz. On the 19+ trucks there 2 small fins that need to be ground down. Repainted the diff with Steel-it paint before mounting the skid.

Dude that is basically why I bought this setup lol. And as chase light for rare events. The output is great and I have them wired to the reverse relay, aswell as AUX6 switch to turn on when I want. Here’s somewhat of a shot in the neighborhood if it helps before and after. I can take on tonight in the garage too.
Thanks for the pics! I think it will be just fine output-wise. My fear with going Pros, would be blinding anyone behind me on trails at night lol

Lol that’s the same thing others have told me on why they didn’t go with the pros.

I have S2 Pros mounted in my GJ Motorsports 3rd brake light. I kept being told they were too bright during Snoball last month. I’ll probably switch them out for S2 Sports.

Actually a couple days ago but set up the Gen3 to tow the sled trailer for the first time. Have a weekend trip planned a week from tomorrow. Had to get a drop hitch because the receiver is about 3" higher than the Gen1 and larger hooks for the safety chains because the existing ones wouldn't close over the receiver. 20230204_114103.jpg

Powedercoated the beauty rings black and swapped out for black lug nuts. The truck is covered in salt tho. My pup was getting concerned about what I was doing to "his truck" when I reinstalled the rings.

BTW - when I pulled off the rings to have them coated, a few of the bolts already had some rust on them and I sorted boogered the torx threads on one of them. Just FYI, McMaster Carr has pretty much exact replacements available, $14 for a pack of 25. Only difference is the factory ones are a T-45 torx and the McMaster ones are a T-40.

Took it out to my buddy’s ranch outside Karnes City, Texas and tested some of the off road capabilities. A great truck for the road trip down but even more impressive off road.
