Re: Caddy Light Install

I think you have enough heart to actually do it.. I really do...eventually... BUT there is nothing wrong with a little help... don't ever be to proud to ask for help. This isn't a must but the way I have seen it done.. is fill the entire tail. Then build a bucket that holds the caddy light, then trace the shape of the bucket to the truck, cut it out then weld the bucket into the truck and grind it flush. Then just bolt the light in.. I think it would be alot easier that way. People say there is only one way to learn is to do it... and thats true for a skill like welding or painting, but accomplishing a task like this, there is more then one way... and some ways might not be the best and getting help might be the best way to accomplish your goal.. BUT MAYBE not man, thumbs up for going at it.... I'll be the first one to buy you a beer when you turn 21.
