how do you shade the tail lights so the lenses arent so bright, but still light up red when being used thanks

Check out this search I did on google, it will provide you with some info. There are sprays that you can use, as well as other methods.

With those BS numbers, the math indicates the rear wasn't narrowed.

Actually we took 8" out of the rear.... But honestly we could have went with less B.S. cause the wheels are tucked in a little too far... We were worried about the tire hitting the front of the bedside..

We scuff them and spray them with a tinted clear.... Seems to work better than the rattle can sprays... After we spray them we sand and lightly buff them..

The math worked out for an un-narrowed housing too. I reviewed the pics & you can tell visibly that there's a pretty good gap between the outside tire edge & the inner bed wall indicating that the housing was narrowed.

Any change planned for the rears or just going as is?

Actually when narrowed the rear the plan was to run a 20x15 with a bigger tire but the measurments were TIGHT on the front of the wheel opening on the bedside... We were going to move the rear end housing back to center the wheel and give us more space but really didn't want to cut apart the new street challenge kit so we went with the 20x12.... We either get the wheel re-hooped or just run a spacer....

I think they stole the idea from us!!! I can't remember who we stole the idea from thought!!!

16" long 2x4 cut and screwed together... Works great! You determine the height!! You can even cover them material and use them to display your ride at shows...

c10addict · 04-20-2011, 07:11 PM

Actually we just picked the truck up and brought it back to the shop to do a little work.. I will get some good pics of it!
