Got this in today. We'll see how she likes it. Seems like a solid piece.

A great way to spend a NC Day!

I really tried to do a low buck lighting project and failed, so I did what I should have done in the first place... Spend Money!!! So I ordered a bunch of stuff... This is the plan.

Truck-Lite...


Harley aux light kit. Creative machine work to thin the mounting clamps to allow full suspension travel with the lamp brackets mounted under the lower triple clamp.


Throwing away the Harley mounting instructions for wiring the lamps and using using the Delphi Metri-Pack compatible fuse/relay holder and salvaging as much as I can from the supplied harness. Latching relays will be used for switched power control. The lighting and accessory harness will be ran through the frame spine to keep it looking factory.


I will only be using the lower portion of the police switch, the rocker switch has two independent momentary contact switches, the side marked horn will control the spot lamps via a latching relay, the side marked siren will control a split Denali air horn via a conventional relay. The existing horn and horn button will remain operational as is.


Denali Soundbomb Split Dual-Tone Air Horn, the compressor will hide behind the battery box.

Installed Patriot Suspension Genesis springs, Bel Ray 10w fork oil and speed merchant preload adjusters. World of difference

The weight reductions and health improvements to a LC/VLC/ZC diet are very well documented. And grocery shopping is simple
Yep, cutting out grain based foods and sugary foods (not fruit, but don't over indulge in them either) will help with weight loss, but you still need some kind of strength training. I cut breads and soda out of my diet (no more pre-diabetes) and I feel 10x's better. Pull-ups would be good (even if assisted), could also throw some knee to chest in while hanging out. Doing some air squats (no added weight), along with some push ups and planks will all help keep you fit with out bulking up. Using body weight alone is all you need.

Mike, I have never noticed this kit before. I like the light brackets, making me rethink the way I have my front end setup. Sometimes I really hate this site!

Took off the lowers wind deflectors, reflectors, buffed up the lowers, and reset the fender tip with some 3M tape. After resetting the tip with tape there was still about a 2 mm gap on the left side between the tip and the fender, but still lined up better.
