Are you running the rigid dually off the stock fog light harness? Any issues?

Yea, I cut into the Jeep wiring and wired it right into the Duallys. Still don't have them aimed 100% right, got flashed the other morning. They do look great and I hope to reaim them this weekend.

How did you mount the duallys in your bumper?

Thanks.

4wd has a bracket. Just ask for it. I ordered through Bryan here on the site. Took about 30min or so.

You may be aimed correctly it is just that since the lights are much brighter and have a better dispersion pattern, and if you are lifted, it may be more in the drivers eyes based on those two things.

The vision X's we have are brighter and they have a wider dispersion pattern than stock. Use 'em only when off road due to this. Not much fog out here in the desert.

I did not have to remove anything, just the bulb socket. The lights are a whole lot better than the pathetic stock lights especially when paired up with my Trucklites headlights. Same color temp now as my headlights but most likely the same light output as stock. Due to the whiter light, I feel they light up what they are shining upon in more crisp detail.

They're aimed a little off still, but your right about the brighter. When I first put them in without adjusting the pattern I lit up a good half mile down my road. Now they are aimed lower but could still use a little tweaking. When I lift later this year I have a feeling won't be able to use them on road at all.
