Its been awhile, need pictures/ideas on Dually
Been so busy with the farm that I haven't been on this site more than acouple times the whole summer. Anyhow, I been working on my old '69 1-ton the last few weeks. Tore the mason dump off, cut it apart, and basically rebuilt it with a new sub frame and floor, only thing I kept from the old one was the sides and cab protector. Still have acouple little things to weld on it then I can paint it finally. Anyhow, I bought LED lights like we use on our tandem axle trucks and wondered if any of you guys have used them on your duallys? Reason I ask is, it seemed every time we hauled with this truck the lights on it before always ended up getting bent or busted. I'd like to cure that. Does anyone have any pictures of the rear lights on your dually?
I put LED's on my '72 K-20 front to rear and boy are they nice.

These are attached by a heavy L bracket welded on the frame about 10" from the back of the bed. I hope the picture comes out, this is a phone pic.

Re: Its been awhile, need pictures/ideas on Dually
I had the exact same problem on my car hauler. I move a bunch of junkers and crushers sometimes to get to the good stuff, and my rear bumper (if you wanna call it that!) is the persuader. I was constantly breaking and crunching my lights until I found these. They are sealed light, and have a polycarbonate lense (which is what the unbreakable combs are made of) made by Peterson. These lights actually have dents in them, and the one on the passenger side is pushed in about a 1/2" but they will not break or shatter. Here is a link to them.They are the toughest light I've found. http://www.pmlights.com/products.cfm...fId=4&pId=1482
I also have regular trailer-type lights on the headache rack.
