P1000 The Grinch!

[truc577]

So me and the kids (and CumminsPusher) decided on a name for the new project. Grinch seems to be the unanimous choice. The shop is prepped, parts and kits are on order, and the trailer is ready to hit the road. I will try to remember in all my joy to take pics as I go.

ACTUALLY, I listened more to the kiddos but threw in a honorable mention to CP.

In Missouri we call it "crawdading".

I'm agreeing with with Joey here. Time to move on and see what's going to happen with that beast in that nice shop. Many things bought and many things coming so it'll be an interesting build.

We don't have "crawdads" in Louisiana

Any preference on mounting location on a 32 curved led? No on the front bumper, grill, or front of the hood. I drive in the brush, not so much on golf trails. I am thinking on top of windshield or at the base.

I've had mine on the front bumper since late 2015 early 2016 and I have not had any issues with it. You can just some of the other guys how I drive it you'll understand that if I say it holds up it's doing pretty good. It gets smacked all the time and it's got some scratches to show it but the light has worked flawlessly which is awesome for a cheap Amazon light.



Also in this picture shows another rig with one mounted to high.

I guess I could go with a 22" right in front of the grill if they are that durable. It would help keep the grill from getting shattered.

If you are a light snob like me, you'll enjoy this the light is below your line of sight so that you don't have to look through the beam on foggy night. Also, it's out far enough in the front so that there's nothing for it to shine on and glare back into your face.

If you're usually riding in the woods, go with the curved bar. It will spread the light out and be more useful. If riding in wide open areas and you need to see half a mile down the trail, go straight bar.

 

[truc577]

Yes I hate glare back. Ill go the the 22" curve in the middle front
