Actually, no. I drove it from Maryland to Cleveland, OH when I went home, and I drove it all the way back to Maryland without any issues. It happened over a month later.

I love them already. In the Modified Tech section there is a really good thread about the Truck-Lite LEDs. Mine were $380 with free shipping. I just took some pics at night. Keep in mind I have a brush guard and crappy camera.

Kris Froelich just came out with a HID retrofit kit that's plug n play for 200. I'm going to do some research before I buy new lights, which I will because the stock lights blow.

Advantages to LED:
Never replace bulbs
No current draw
Solid state electronics with no brittle ballast
No heat so glass won't crack from cold water or mud

Finally fixed my OFA. I had to use an "L" shaped torx wrench with a 3" pipe on it. No more leaks!
