Already full. 50' Air hose, small tool bag, DOT Triangles, Flares, fire extinguisher, rain suit, ECWS jacket, butyl gloves and a box of spare headlights to keep the dot inspector's off my back.

And finally, the light switch panel as well as a side shot to show off the front floods again. I haven't driven it with the floods, but they're bright right in front. I figure with highbeams and the floods on, I ought to really be able to blind the deer. Of course the side shot shows how much...

And the Rear Flood

Front light brackets, I did them this way because I didn't want to drill holes in the bumper or front bumper supports. Partially because I didn't want to deal with drilling through such a thick hunk of metal, and partially because I want to leave as few permanent modifications as possible. ie...

Here's my additional flood lights From the front

Ok, so after two days of crawling around under the Deuce in drizzle and windy cold weather, I now have two 20 amp breakers on the firewall supplying power to the #37 lead and to a set of switches under the dash next to the door. The left most switch does the dual front floods. The next powers...

So I've made up some brackets for my floods. Turns out the rear flood will mount up to an extra hole in the bracket that supports the rear mudflap holder. The front lgiths are mounting under the front bumper. I've made some 16 gauge triangle shaped brackets for the front floods that'll mount on...

Fab up a folding hinge/cover as part of the guard for the IR light to keep it from damage.

So that rod projects out of the transmission and moves further back, when put into reverse? Good place for that actually. So long as the transmission doesn't move around. Or is your switch mounted to the transmission?

What did you use for a switch on the gear shift lever for backup light function? My initial thought is to just turn it on. Another question, where to hook it all in to get power? Direct from the batteries or off an accessory lead in the harness somewhere?

Seems like some standard headlight mounts would work too. The lamps I bought for $7 ea are these.http://www.hella.com/produktion/HellaPortal/WebSite/Internet_usa/ProductsServices/Heavy_Duty/Halogen_Work_Lamps/Rubber_Housing/Rubber_Housing.jsp 24 volt H3 70watt bulbs too. Should be plenty bright.

These have a hinge so I could pivot them easily.

Hmm, where to put them? I could make some guards that bolt up under there as well, just inside of where that footstep is. Kinda think the foot step needs to be longer (a bar on 2 heavy cables like on utility service trucks?).

On the way home, I kind of got to thinking that rather than an individual switch panel per device, it'd be nice to just install a small panel with 3-4 toggles on it. Aux front floods Rear flood Internal dome something else (I'll think of an extra function that'd be nice) If I just put two...

So I bought some nice hella work lights from a local truck parts place that had them for $7 each. Looking around online seems like a good deal. Rubber mounted H3 bulbs. He even had 24 volt bulbs there at the store. So, my plan now is to mount one facing rearwards under the bed and two facing...
