I tried getting 4WP to price match as I would've bought them today but they could only go as low as 215$ per light. So ordering online will be happening soon.

Stock XJ lights suck royally, I can't even tell if the lights are on most times.

They rule. Extremely bright at night and they outshine every car around on the road. They cover a lot more area to the sides and much farther out. And for the price I paid, I'm pretty satisfied. There probably are better lights available, but I'm sure they also cost a lot more too.

Have you done the PutCo harness upgrade? That made my low beams brighter than my high beams were before it!

No It still gets shaky at times. Ball joints, wheel bearing units arent even a year old. Track bar has same angle to tie rod as it had before and it didnt shake. literally one day i was driving and it got death wobble, but the track bar bracket came loose, so i retorqued bolts and aactually welded the bracket on the frame. I have grabbed the front bumper and rocked the truck side to side vigurously and nothing move, pops, or does anything out of the ordinary. Ive ran outta ideas

Also, i tightened the worm gear on the steering box which tightened up the steering and took all the negative play out. But occasionally ill hit bumps just right and itll wobble my teeth loose

Something has to be loose, rebalance tires? I'd be out of ideas also.

I think this is the right model. Night and day (punny huh?) difference with the headlights after I installed it.
