Thanks for the info.

They changed the lights around earlier this year for ones that would seal better. The older ones aren't available, only replacements for however they shipped out this year would be available.Does anyone know how to get an amber light for the outside (turn signal), red and then white reverse lights?
This is like the picture I ordered from.

The one that came in looks like this? Are light kits available?

You'd have to customize that yourself. It's designed to have the factory hitch sit below the bumper (bolted-on).Following to see what @OwnerCS truck looks like with the Dobinson rear.
@crikeymike Is there any way a hitch could be integrated (welded on) the bumper itself? Is it possible to cut a hole to match with in-bumper hitch that some LX had from factory?
Look underneath and inside that apron on driver side- there are some plugs on the underside that provide direct access to the tire jack compartment and various 12v wire leads. That saves coming through the side of the apron and resides slight higher- less chance of water intrusion.I've been debating running a hole through the plastic body plugs for wiring from the tail lights to the bumper lights.
The plug on the left side already has two holes for trailor lighting. One of those holes is not used.
I ordered two new body plugs just to keep and drill out should I decide to go that route. I can use some plastic sealer on the body plug hole.
Any thoughts on routing the wiring through the body plug?

The jerry can carrier has a position and light for the licence plate relocation. Yes the tire will partially block it, especially if it's oversizedQuestion for anyone who put this on the 100, does the tire block the license plate? Or is there another place to put the tag with a tag light?
Is oversized anything bigger than 33”?The jerry can carrier has a position and light for the licence plate relocation. Yes the tire will partially block it, especially if it's oversized
Anything over stock (a 31" tire). From a side angle, the tire would block it no matter how big it is, so cops would give you trouble, which is why it comes with the relocation parts to move the license plate.Is oversized anything bigger than 33”?
In your pic you didn’t put in the Jerry can holder, but I noticed something is there, is that a place for the tag and tag light? Are you concerned with blocking the tag if kept behind the tire or have you moved it?Last one.
I don't love how I ran the reverse light for the passenger side across the bumper, but it will be fine, I found no good way to route it through the truck without drilling more holes, so I ran it through the back side of the bumper.
Here is completed wiring, and a look at all lights functioning. Lots of visibility!

6 lights saying "I'm stopping!".
The carriers were straight forward. Use TWO spacers on the bottom of the bottom bearing of you won't have clearance to get the lock pin into the cone. The instructions show one spacer. The bumper comes with spindle covers should you want to not have the carriers on. They aren't sealed, but seem like a good thing to hold onto. I didn't install the Jerry can bit in these pics, going to engineer a table onto that arm.

You can't really see, but there are spots on the back, near the reverse light to hold a hi lift jack, and matching reinforcement. Great idea, and not noticable.
The online pics make it looks a little doofy, but it isn't that bad. The stock mud flaps attach right back to the side wings, so that is how far it will hang down for those that wonder.

That was answered a few posts up. Yes, it will partially block it.Two questions. Does the spare tire block the taillights? and is there a tow hitch option?
