    Truck-Lite LED Headlights----Finally Ordered a set.

    Can anyone show a pic of what the illumination looks like from the drivers seat at night? Low and high beam? I saw the picture on the box but am hoping for a better view. We just put a lightbar on my wife's truck I want to compare it to that

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    M-1009 rear U-joint at diff yoke part #

    Recently finished a swap to 1 ton axles on my m1009. My rear shaft-axle "stock" u joint is a 3R-1350 conversion joint. Drove me crazy until i got it right. I must have 3 other u joints in the wrong size laying around. By your description it sounds like what you may have.

    Whats your favorite headlight?

    May I assume you've tried all three? If so, do you have pictures of the beam pattern on the road? Wouldn't mind something better than the two light spots on the road surrounded by darkness.
