Talking Ramp truck LED

I bought this LED bar to go on my 71 but ended up buying new tail lights and cargo 3rd brake light in stead.

So I decided I would use it on the ramp truck. I had the flat 4 pin connector so why not. Man that was a job.
The truck wiring was a mess under the truck. PO had cut and taped up all kinds of splices with no connectors just tape. I cut 8' of wire out of the harness and redid it all. The lights work well now. I even went and bought new flasher and LED tail lights to go in it also. Made a world of difference.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Man you should have seen the wiring mess it had on it. PO had split the harness at the rear connector and had everything doubled up to the old lights. I don't know how it even worked.
It's all better now though. I may start adding the LED side marker's soon.
I added the relays up front for the head lights and I may get a set of new head lights for it.
