I would like to get something similar for my F350 ext. cab so I can light up my step bars at night.

Point: I couldn't afford an awesome wheelen light bar b/c I spent a wad on my truck. "Cheap lookin "or not, they get the job done.

bigjeeping, that light setup seems extremely effective for its purpose.

Heres the 2 shots + a video clip of my strobes and reverse lights on my F350

How long have you had your reverse lights mounted under you bumper? I put a set there on my truck and wiped them out the first night plowing. I have a habit of backing up into the snow bank because I have some real tight locations. I not leave one of my trailer hitches in to make sure I don't dent my bumper on the concrete walls.

I put them on just after I got the truck. The easiest way not to rip them off is by not plowing :waving:
If I was going to plow with them I would probably build a cage for them, but since I don't its not a problem.

Thanks Mike. It works great. Lights up the rear brighter than the headlights do the front!

do you turn them on everytime you park your trailer at a jobsite?

do you turn them on everytime you park your trailer at a jobsite?I'm still planning it, however I will probably tie them into the reverse lights so that they go on when I'm in reverse. Then I will also wire it so I can flip a toggle switch on the tongue of the trailer and have them run off the breakaway battery, then that gets charged up soon as I run the truck again.

I was at Tractor Supply today and saw where they have my square brake lights like on my dump trailer but as LED's for $18 each, i want!!
Plus, I use my brakes or signal I'd like to be noticed a little more, the stock single bulb isn't bright enough and I have to just come over on people 1/2 the time, then again 1/2 the people in northern VA aren't capable of driving anyway
