Can I ask why? You need brighter light? If you are going with that style lights and are intending to use them as a night trail light and need to see the LED ones will give ya a lot more visibility compared to standard bulbed clearance lights. I thought it would be cool to use the blackout lights, I always wanted to get my hands on some. But I never used them so I don't know how effective they are.

Yeaa I'm just looking for a light so you can see the jeep.. instead of the amber ones I thought I'd use 2 inch driving lights maybe

Then again I thought about using the cone lights is because cj5s have them

Yah, you want it to look like it belongs on the jeep, ya know? Instead of half assed. Byt the way the tires look real good, how are the fronts when you steer?

And steering is gonna suck I haven't steered it but i can tell I won't turn much..
But when I get the money I wanna do a 2 inch shackle lift and Put wheel spacers around whole jeep or use some adapters that will really help it 5.5 on 5 but they are kinda Pricey

Guy backed out of buying my rallies so not gonna get the oil relocation kit anytime soon but I don't wanna use the old style

It's funny cause when I go to the parts store but they can't find it and I tell them they have it cause I found it

Then when I walk in to buy something what's year of vehicle 1594 Willys jeep they laugh

I Pretty much updated the PCV system from what originally came on it and put a updated thermostat in it

Then I rewired the whole thing and made a box out of wood to hold my stereo that fits in the glove box then ran 2 surround sound speakers the square ones up in the dash

Think autozone $15 bucks for two sets of shackles so $30 then for spacers there about $30 for 2 1/4 inch spacers so thats $60 may have to put longer wheel studs I want the tires to stick out so I can still flew the **** out of it..
Adapters like 3 inch I think are about 60 for 2 on eBay

I know that if I put shackles on it I'd have flexing room and help clear body instead of rub On it and plus spacers will help with steering

I don't like the studs and way cause left side is lefty tighty righty loosey and the right side is righty tighty lefty loosey wonder how hard it will be to put new studs in?

I thought bout keeping the lollipop lights an just put some 2 inch driving lights in there or something
