Update: gave up on LEDs. Went with the halogens from Those Military Guys. Tonight was the first chance to use them. Very satisfied. Nice and bright. No issues installing them. Worth the money.
I also have a non turbo and just bypassed the fdc. Everything I've read on this site suggests that engine damage is still possible whether turbo or non. I installed a pyro. I look at it as cheap insurance and gives me a reference point if and when I make adjustments to the fuel delivery.
As this was the first Halloween with the truck, I wanted to stay a bit whimsical instead of scares. It had the desired effect. The kids were all smiles. Also spent my "prop" allowance on the werewolf. No money left for surplus cammies.
Guinea Pig here... lights arrived last week. Very well packaged, in fact, it was top quality packaging. Lights looked great and appeared to be very well-made. Only problem is that the ring bezel on the light doesn't fit the stock retaining ring on the truck at all. I have no intention of...
First saw the ad on evil bay but saw the same thing on Amazon. I wasnt able to copy the link from my phone but this is most of the description:7" OZ-USA 75w High Output Military LED Headlight 24 volts M35a2... I also did a general search for OZ USA reviews. Not many of them but mostly good...
So after doing some further research, it seems the OZ-USA lights have a decent reputation. Enough so that I placed an order. Guess I'll be the guidea pig. I'll report on how they work once installed.
You make a very good point and generally I follow that rule as well; however, sometimes a gem comes along and I'd hate to miss out. I'll probably wait and get the maxximas at some point.
Thanks Gimpyrobb. Those maxximas are pricey. Guess they'll go on the wish list. The oz USA lights are 24v and the come with wiring harness adapters. Phillips diodes but assembled in China. Reviews were mixed but few...the same for the maxximas. At $80 for 2, it might be worth taking a chance...
New deuce owner looking at upgrade options. Anyone have experience with OZ USA lights? The ad on Amazon and the price look tempting. I did a quick search and nothing came up so throwing the question out to the experts. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, are the LED's generally drop in...
...or the oring material? My first inclination was to use air tool oil as well. Turned out to be a moot point because of the amount of grease inside the motors. It looked like wheel bearing grease. I don't see how air tool could make it worse so it's worth trying. Again, the orings are cheap and...
I recently rebuilt both of mine. One wasn't working at all and the other was sluggish. Both had copious amounts of grease...the wrong grease...which made the orings swell. The grease also entered the air passages. Cleaned everything out, replaced orings, and used oring grease. Orings are common...
Update: the plastic motors are working but are too finicky. Drivers side gets a full swing but stops once in awhile for no reason. The passenger side has about half the swing, goes faster, but barely clears a spot large enough to see through. I broke down and ordered the metal ones. Yes, I can...
So I finally had a. Chance to put both wiper motors back in. BTW, I di rebuild the drivers side as well. Yes, as expected it was full of wheels bearing grease like the passenger side. Both work. Ow but the passenger side has a very short stroke in both directions. Drivers side spans the...
