M35a3 Removal Head lights

[ApopkaFL]

I plan to remove the head lights off of the fenders from my M35A3 anyone have any suggestions on how to do this? I was thinking I could mount a second bumper under the old one and installing some lights in that Bumper. Reason for this is cause the trucks head lights are high with the 53" tires I have on it. The bottom of the bumper is 54" to the ground now.

Its only 4 bolts and it shouldnt be a hugh deal to extend the wires. I moved mine. but up higher.

4 bolts and the ground wires, little metal id tags ie 18 plug to 18 plug,463 plug to 463 plug. It takes a medium screwdriver wedged in to pop the rubber boots off, a little WD40 helps if they have been together for 17 years.

There is 2 reason I want to remove them. One they are ugly as **** there. Number two is the truck is so high. I will post a photo.

Putting in the bumper exposes them to more road damage, as for being high, just re AIM, thought all MVs were sorta UGLY, if thay were pretty, every soccer mom would have on.

Drop your bumper down with brackets and weld extensions to the front fenders and slide the lights down?

sorry to tell you that the whole front of the a3 is ugly as ****, rearranging the headlights are not going to fix that. I am going to do a whole front clip transplant from an A2.

I would really like to see the duel bumper thing with the lights mounted in them. Post some pics if you end up doing this please.

I clearly understand your thought on them being exposed. BUT you will have to remember the truck is very tall now. Bottom of the bumper is 54" to the ground. By installed second bumper and installing recessed lights in it they will be out of the way. Check out the BUD LIGHT truck with two bumpers. It looks good with them.

I'll make you a good deal on one of the HETT bumpers I have.
