H4 headlight upgrade / Lifetime LED install,  Bright light output and no one flashes.  I had to adjust the light a little higher for the light to reach out, probably a design flaw in the housing by KC

Awesome.

The lights gets adjusted up because our bulbs only illuminate on the top of the bulb in low beam instead of 360" I had to adjusr mine and the ones in the mini-van as well.

UPS just delivered my Currie anti-rock and some more aluminum armor from Savvy off road, Prepped ARTEC d44 front truss with chassis saver and taped off weld spots.  Looks like around the first week of March it should be installed.  I do not have a cool shoppe like most, but my basement and some old boxes do just fine for paint.
