Went outside and layed in the snow. I froze my butt of because I was hearing a tapping sound while I was accelerating heavily. I figured it was the torque converter bolts loose. After I checked them and realized they were tight, I noticed the exhaust was hitting my oil pan... So after 30 mins of freezing in the snow I had it fixed in about 20 seconds..... What a day!

Thats only a 2 inch lift? Those 31's look just like mine with 3.5" of lift.

I think your lift isn't what you think it is. Here is mine, 3.5" on 31's:

Default Lite er up

Sylvania Silverstars, I really like em, nice white and bright, I have to replace about every year but I do drive a lot, a lot! (3-5 hours daily) I always replace with the Silverstars again, have to aim a bit low as I get flashed a lot by oncoming traffic when I aim them to spec., still a great lite. Roofs are Blazer, low name brand, low cost, I like em for the plastic housings, no rust, use stainless fasteners and bolt thru the stock roof bar and on bummper, 3 winters on them and no rust issues. Roofs and bumper lights are combination of amber fog lense for wide spread and clear lense for longer concentrated pencil beam. Each is 60W so I run two 12ga power feeds to the roof (25 amps total) and fed thru relay, my dash toggle doesn't carry the full load, only control power to the relay. With all lights on it's like daylight in front of me, too much all at once for on road, like driving into the sun, great for backroads and bush. I think there are some additional shots in my photo album.
