Finally getting her out and getting her dirty! East Texas country roads mixed with some recent heavy rains made for quite the muddin’ adventure. Really is insane what these can do with the stock suspension and KO2’s

Nice! What cot/tent setup is that?

 

[MacK88DO]

It’s a Kamprite oversized tent cot. It’s all in one and sets up in like 30 seconds. Love this thing! Pretty cheap too. Grabbed mine on sale through amazon for 170 bucks

Why every bulb is LED on the truck except the tag is beyond me... that’s better.

I thought the same thing the night I drove it home! The “reason” is that the LED brighter and scattered light washes out the backup camera at night. The brighter the bulb, the worse it gets. Guys apparently use the super duty (IIRC) housings that are factory LED as they directionally diffuse the light to prevent the camera issue. Requires a tiny bit of trimming the new housing to fit. Once I read all that I got obesssed about needing to do it that way and keep putting it off.

However, that is better!

Thanks for that background info! I will keep that in mind as I use the backup cam - these lights seem about the same brightness/lumens as the stock, just different color temperature. Good information to have!!

If anyone else is looking for a similar LED light bulbs setup for the rear plate, these have been popular for us ever since the 2017 trucks hit the streets.

Installed my BD S2 reverse lights, but not wired yet. Made a few more Forscan adjustments.
