i have a 3/5 western chasis drop and it doesnt look gangster at all. it definatly looks lowered but if i was to go for the lowered look again i would do maybe a 4/6. as for the head lights everyone on here seems to hate them but i think they look real good. i would post a pic of my truck so u could see. but honestly i dont no how to put pics on here so sorry for that.

Thanks, maybe in the future if I don't like it. But, I know for sure I won't be taking it out again, ha.

Anyone know why my headlight low beams don't work, but my high beams do? My fog lights don't turn on as well.

my first things to check would be
a. plugs/harnesses plugged in correctly after reinstalling headlight switch
b. fuses

those will be ur quickest/easiest fixes and are likely causes. after that, then you start thinkin

Well, I don't think it could be the harness, since the high beams work. Where is the fuse located?

I would still check the switch, your brights turn on from the column correct?? I don't believe your head lights even have be turned on to turn the brights on but I could be wrong on that, I would still check the switch just to be safe

This is what I do, I turn the headlight switch on, and flip my bright switch on and I have lights. I flip my bright switch off and no more lights.

are your bulbs good? Do your dash lights come on? I would assume that the switch is bad, not hooked up right

yep, you always wanna rule out the easy fixes first before you launch some kinda epic investigation to find out it was something simple. check the switch since it was the only thing altered (assuming, since you just removed your dash & the headlights worked before) then check fuses, and of course the bulbs. 3 simplest fixes, and most likely the problem.

What on the switch do I need to check? It seems to be working due to my parking lights come on when I turn those on. Just the regular beams and fogs don't.
