Why 3" in the front? Do you have the torsion bars cranked a little extra? Does this not affect ride quality and the already minimal articulation in our front ends?
Just curious.
Im in the same boat with body lift and garge door height...

It's probably more realistically around 2.6-2.7" but its been so long since I've measured I honestly cant remember what it is? I could go find the numbers I had written down or measure it next time I have it in the air... IIRC I had around 50-52mm of droop? I just measured my center hub to fender and its at 22" exactly. Ride quality is fine.
 
Got the roof tent mounted. Now, I just need to get out and use it!

I don't currently... it's on my list of things I'd like to do, but I won't be able to fit into my garage... You can see how close I am already to my garage door.

Nice, same here. I was actually just measuring my clearance and I think I have just enough for either a rack or a body lift. I think I’ll do the body lift soon. Your cruiser just looks so good on 35s!

What’s the stock measurement? I’m at 22” as well with icons, 24.5” at full droop
 
I love these, where did you get them?
I bought it from a member here. You can get it on eBay oversea. They're really pricey though. 400ish-500ish.
 
My search for headlight upgrade is hopefully over. Need to test at night to be sure.
What a difference.
Size 9006.
Also came with 9005 for high beam / drl.
But they don’t switch between the two.
Stuck on high beam.
That would not be popular.
Gonna try to return those ones.

Any updates on getting the bulb switched and the night time results? I'm in desperate need of something plug-n-play.
 
Thanks to members @willbt & @geanes for recommending these.

Shipped from Austrailia & arrived in 4 business days!

Going to modify them & post pics, mounted etc.

@geanes you weren't kidding about the blingy yellow - the picture doesn't give them credit for how bright they really are.

Where could someone order these?! Was holding out on picking up ones from Trail Tailor but if the consensus is these, and the price shipped ain't bad, I might grab em.

100% PLUG AND PLAY.
The passenger side is a little more difficult to get to, may have to move the battery. They are infinitely better.
Are they perfect, NO.
The beam is a little splotchy. It's not as uniform as the modern LED lights in brand new cars. But for $40, you cannot go wrong. And I don't have the time or patience to take apart my headlights, bake them, reglue them, blah blah blah.
These do the job.
 
Im a fan of the Trail Tailor recovery points and would love to give my $ to Jason as I have in the past - these just fit the bill for my particular needs.

Lots of members run the TT points and have nothing but great things to say about them
I have the trail tailor ones, and work great. I dont think you have to go to Australia to by recovery points.
 
I could not have been any more unbiased - even giving the tip of the hat to Trail Tailor.

No you don't have to go to Austrailia for recovery points - but it looks like you went there for your ARB front bumper ;)
TOUCHE'
