It hits the tow hitch when I use the dump bed. I’m gonna have my buddy weld up a custom bumper for it

You should get a set of these for your clear turn signals.

I put a set in my GTO and it’s great not seeing the ugly orange bulb. Still flashes orange when the signal is on though.

Finally mounted my air horns. Hopefully I’ll have enough time to get the compressor and horns wired up in the next couple days.

I had some free time last night and got the horns and compressor wires ran. Also got all the plumbing ran and filled it up to test for leaks and it’s all good to go. The horns are LOUD! All i need to do now is just get the compressor, horns and rear lights wired up to switches inside the truck. Also need to get the truck back over to my buddies so i can get the mounts for the rear airbags welded up and get those installed to complete my air system.

Not much to show here but here are the horns wired up

Pics:

because my my bed is a dump bed I used a coil of wire meant for a trailer harness to link between the frame and the backrack lights. Works great!

bottom switch is for the airbags I still need to get brackets made for and installed
