Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I'm digging the cab lights, what are they off of? I'm looking for some for my burb, the tint also makes them blend a little bit and they won't be as obvious once the rest of the truck is assembled.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Andrew, they are from a 03 up dodge and are recons. I love how these lights illuminate too. They are LED and look sweet! Plus the fit the roof really well.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I have never really liked the clearance lights, but those actually look pretty cool on there! Looking good Ryan, keep at it! Do you have an up close picture of the lights?

Or a big pair of rubber balls hanging from the hitch. Now that would be classy.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I'll just say that I love the truck! I may not be a big fan of the cab lights but its not my truck so that minor detail doesn't really matter to me. Keep on with all the great work ryan!

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I didn't mean any disrespect towards your build. Just thought it would go with the whole diesel theme. Very nice work so far, been following this build since I got on here.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Those would look cool, but I'm afraid they're out of my bidget for a while. I plan on some aluminum wheels, but first I want to get it running and driving. I still have a couple big ticket items to purchase before I can get it running.

Progress pics, not much but some.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Here are some pics of the rock guard on the rocker/cab corner. ![]() ![]() Matt, here's a side shot of the clearance lights. ![]() Today I had a pleasant surprise waiting for me................................................. My transmission is back already! I did some trading with my friend that I get my manual trans parts from, and they did a super fast job. It's officially now a 98 up NV4500HD. Has all the upgrades, along with a billet big input shaft, and cast iron tail housing. now I'll have to decide what hydros I want to run, and get my clutch here. ![]() ![]()
