Well, now you know to not get headlights from Bob's bargain bin.
American-Trucker Thanks this. -
I would say that's there water getting in there. I put new bulbs in the Volvo using the "extra" bright bulbs from TA. A world of a difference. The lows are twice as bright, so I got the highs in the "silver" from Sylvania. Now the back roads of PA and NY look like daytime.

soo truck fail inspection again....4th year in a row
. Tires arent good enough for NC apparently.....i donno i didnt have any problem in 2' of mud this past may...who'da thought 33" tires arent good enough
So then i go do my taxes......$5100 hellllllls yea! So i went and bought me some rubbers.......33" rubbersfor my truck. Got one Hell of a deal Tires are $407 EACH, i got them for $345 EACH AND Buy 3 get 1 Free!....so I got FOUR 33 x 12.5 x 16 Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ, Mounted Balanced, Valve stems, Alignment check, Lifetime Free unlimited Rebalanceing, and life time road hazard (includeing sidewalls) all for $1,287!
This is what i got:
Tires will be here mon or tuesday so my dads gonna come get my truck and drop it off so they can do all the work.
Anywhere else for these tires would have been $1600 + shipping + mount & Balance
I ALMOST went with option TWO: 4x4 shop, and got Same Tires except in 36" with a 4" Suspension lift.....all for $2500 Installed
BUT i figured for right now, i stick with my 2.5" suspension lift and 33"s. As it is i have to hop up into the truck. But i gotta do something soon my dads winning. His truck as of last june has 33"s and a 4" body lift, He's about to put 38"s and a 6" suspension lift on it to....cant be letting him win now

Ah not toooo bad, at least you got a couple extra days off in the front. Got my truck washed today for the first time, seamless. Sign here and done.

yep its nice working for a company that knows how to do their job aint it? Nothing worse then AFTER sitting in line for an hour to get the truck washed get to sit on hold waiting for a PO to pay for it
