So have any of you ever installed a Heidts Mustang II suspension on an older car or truck?

no

i like having extra backup lights. they make sure you are seen and also help you see better when it is dark out. just got to find a good place to bolt them. bolted a light to the frame on my dads ford and he said it made a huge difference.

I was thinking of using some conduit clamps and clamping them to the underside of my bumper.
What gauge wire could I use?

conduit clamps? not really sure. if you can i would bolt them to the frame. bit harder for them to get hit under there. i know i am constantly re-adjusting the ones on the ramcharger after i back into a snowbank but because of where the gas tank is, bolting them to the frame is not really an option.

i used 12 gauge wire between the battery and relay but i was originally planning on hooking the 12 gauge wire to the 7 pin trailer connector and then using a bit lighter wire to go between the trailer connector and the relay.

I don't have to worry about backing into snow banks.

I don't do much driving at night anyway, most of the time where I would need anything like that would be at my friend's house or my grandparents, who both live out in the country. So in theory, they could just tuck up under the bumper.

Can I use 14 gauge? I still have some of that laying around, but I WOULD likely need more...
