Got a new light bar gentleman. I'm just posting it up because some of the dak guys don't make it over to the 3rd gen very much. I gotta move my lights from behind the grill to the light bar this weekend.

does it have mounting tabs or do you have to drill...or make custom mouts.....

 

You take out the plastic piece in your bumper and it's straight up bolt on. Had it on in less than 10 minutes. Gonna take me longer to run the wires and tie up a wire loom to make it look good. I hate seeing wires.

 

i meant to mount the lights buddy....but it would be nice if ol hammer could make you a nice piece to cover where the black plastic was and hide them bolts and nuts...and itd be polished aluminum...look real nice...

 

Or just cut the plastic stuff. Thats what I did in anticipation that I was going to add towing hooks but I never got around to it lol.

 

Yeah, I'm gonna cut the plastic piece for now and get that buttoned up.

Jay, yeah it does have tabs. It has three of them for the front. This is a pic of what it looks like with the lights installed:

 

very nice---in a borat style voice....

 

So today i deceided to do an oil change and do the spark plugs on my truck. Oil change was straight foward, plugs were pretty simple to except that come to find out the plugs in my car were the original ones that came with the truck. And i guess they dont believe in anti-seize at the factory. it took some convincing to get them out but as far as them being as difficult as alot of people have made them, there actually really easy to do. So for anyone wanting to do them but scared to dont be. there pretty easy

 

for the 4.7's around our year of truck is pretty easy. It's not hard at all. They may have believed in aiti-seize, but since they were in there for 6+ years yeah I would think they'd be a little difficult to convince to come out. Now, the newer models of the 4.7 they have 16 plugs like the hemi, So I would assume those to be a PITA. I always tell people when they change the plugs not to forget to blow off the top of the motor where the coil packs are before they pull 'em. It's soooooo easy to accidentally drop any dirt, etc that's on the motor into the cylinder while you've got the plug out.

 

i agree johnny i actually use some old hose i got rigged to a coupler on the shop vac and vacuum the shizzzz off...get it outta there completely...
