Dan,

Found the lights online for $90-$100 for one. Did you find a better source for a lower price? $200 for a pair of lights is steep.

Thanks,

Dan

$82 each is cheap.

Depending on what style/version of headlight buckets you have, prepare to modify them.

 

[slickrock]

Modification is my friend. Already have the wiring with individual relays. My HID lights I bought 8 years ago are behind on technology and have filled with water too. Thanks for replying.

 

[D'Animal]

Was able to modify the housing and get both Genesis LED headlights installed and wired.

Just looking at the picture hurts my eyes. Must be very bright. Seems like a good mod. One day I need to work on my buckets, the adjustment nuts spin so I have not been able to adjust where the light beams go.

Fellow ''Chop Master'' liking your work ! I've also done a 45 king cab ! and looking at doing a 70 series to 70 king cab with pick up box.

Yeah, for real water crossings, sealed headlights rule..

Looks so good, you did really build a dream rig Dan!

Wife was out playing with chainsaws and teaching her friend how to drive a manual transmission vehicle

Ummm, do they make trees that big anymore, or are those for cutting more than one at a time?

 

[DomSmith]

Yes. And some of them don’t like Toyota’s…

 

[D'Animal]

Yes, there are trees that big still being harvested. The drought, Wildland fires and beetles killed them.

 

[GW Nugget]

Holy Moly them B sum SAWS...
Crum... @DomSmith has a flatbed now.

This thread continues to inspire. It is a permanent tab on my phone and I have read through it too many times to count. My 40 is underway and I'm beyond excited to get it done. Thanks @D'Animal and @zornff for building such awesome rigs.
