Thanks. It's an addiction, I can not leave anything stock, I think Jim Lane and a few others share this addiction as well, oh well beats a heroin habit any day!!

You got it BK, I have changed all the cab lights to LED, and will do the bed shortly as I am building a new head ache rack around 6" black stainless Aussie cut stacks. I moved the bed back 6" so I can have them between the cab and bed.

I just used 1/8" plate to fill the stock hole and put the LEDs in there for turn/markers. I ripped half of the stock bumper off pulling a friend out of a snow drift, so I made sure it would not happen again. I also made a winch mount that goes in the 2 receiver tubes, same thing on the back for pulling cars and things onto the trailer.

Or the other way to do LED conversion with the stock turn signals.

Philip,

What LED light and/or assembly did you use to create that looks-stock-but-rocks blinker?

Twitchy that is a 2.2X6.5 yellow oval tail/marker light. Its one of the PT series from superbrite led.

I did that conversion about two years ago. No complaints so far. No water issues in the orginal turn signal assy eather.
