New (to me) truck 2007 GMC

[countrycorey]

ya i had great luck with my toyo m/ts went 42-50k miles outta them i have 25k on my trails and mine are shot

I've rotated mine religiously and have towed my 15k 5er several times with them and they've lasted longer than I expected them. I'll probably get another set when these wear out. Only dislike was the first 500 miles at 70 psi as the rears like to "roll" in the turns.

Going to start working on my center console soon, ordered 5 gallons of fiberglass resin and 50 yards of chop mat.

Removed my tiny spare and sprayed my rear fender wells with plasti-dip

Also, 12-high mod

Was that truck repainted? I wanna get my GMC redone in a year or so. I want your garage..

does your lights still have a high/low function just all on at once?

Nope, stock paint. I wish it was my garage. It's my Dad's shop. I just park my vehicles in there. Spend a ton of time in there in the winter though!

does your lights still have a high/low function just all on at once?

I did an HID retrofit so when my low beams are on its just the HID lows with a nice cutoff, and my LED DRL's are on as well. I can flip my fogs on whenever still but with HID's in there they have a ton of glare, going to put LED's in those so I can have them on whenever.

When I flip my high beams on I have HID lows and the cutoffs in the HID projector flip down, halogen highs, HID fogs come on automatically too, and DRL's all on like with the lows.

I don't like blinding other motorists and you can look at my truck from the front and not be blinded/strained by it if I just have my lows on and light output is still awesome.

Also have a 20" LED lightbar coming for the center air-damn opening on the bumper and 2 4" square LED's I'm using for backup lights.

The 20" bar is 9600lm

Stock paint!

Stock paint!

Truck has 42k miles on it now, 23k when I got it a little under a year ago.

It had zero paint chips in it until I put the Trail Grapplers on it and drove down gravel roads.

Plan on keeping it forever at least.....:rofl: trying to keep it as nice as possible.

I want to see some more pics of the front of your truck. I forgot you put on an 01 hood I've been thinking of an 01 cowl hood. Just not sure I want to cut one up.

Any specific shots?

Here's a bunch

When you put in led's for the reverse lights would you mind doing a before and after night shot with them? I've really been thinking about getting something else for reverse lights because the stock ones really don't put out much light imo.

No problem, I don't have LED's in my taillight reverse lights because they don't help much so it's just halogen 3157's

man I need to hire you to do my lights, you sure know what to do with them and I don't know crap about doing lights

[sweetdiesel]

Looks so good!

 

[Dozerboy]

Thanks for the pics


Ya leds look bright but don't put off more ligh.t No where close in fact unless you got a bunch of them. For back up lights I'm been thinking of getting a set of lights off the later model Deere dozers. The lens is only 2" round and the bezel would look good mounted in the rear bumper.

 

[Cornell]

LED tech has come a long way. The light bars I bought put out some serious light.

Those Deere lights are a good idea... although I doubt they are cheap

 

[Dozerboy]

Ya I'm sure they are I keep forgetting to get a price for them when I'm there. But ya know there are lots of dozers just siting on the side of the road.....

I still think they have a ways to go before I'd invest in them. If I wanted a bunch more light I would do a Morimoto Mini H1 Bi-xenon Retrofit in the highs maybe the lows, and fogs even.
I'm more then happy with my 45w hids in denali projectors. Don't even hardly need my brights.
