Not yet lol. I do have a 2" raiser on the front but that was a few years ago and it really didnt do anything. That was when I wanted it lifted but I have decided its a street truck not an off road truck and now I am pondering a 2/4.5 drop.

I am actually trying to set a date to have it dropped at a local pick ups plus because I lack the tools and the know how to do it myself. Now why in the world would you talk yourself out of doing the lights?

Leave Autozone, goto Walmart and spend $52 on a set of Hella 500s. Good light for the money and nice and flat for placement behind the grill. Good investment and for about $5 a light you can change the 55 watt bulbs to 100 watts if you want to.

Yep, bought mine in Florida, the FFs and they were $62, the regular 500s were right beside them at $52.
Bought a set in Georgia and installed them on a buddies Cheby 4x4 and they were the same $52 up there.

I can't even find them on ebay for that...



Might be you can talk to the auto dept. manager if your Wal Mart doesn't have them. I have a friend wanted a Beretta shotgun made by Beretta especially for Walmart. His local Walmart doesn't carry firearms at all, just ammo, but a talk to the sporting goods dept. manager and they brought one in for him, proper paperwork with it and everything. Dunno if a Walmart in Canada can get Hellas if NO Canadian Walmarts carry them, but it's worth asking...

They used to be on eBay for something like 39.99, but that deal dried up. If you can find them at walmart, get them.

You're best bet might be just getting on wal-mart's website and try ordering them...
