well when you drive a stroked and blown ute that only comes out on wkends.. i dont muck around and just go for a sunday drive... it gets what i built it to do!

another vote for Jezza! one of the best from what i heard.
i'd put 6psi through it, but you will still be safe with 10psi.

heres my 383 LS1 HTV2300 @ 10psi ute

2-4inch lift kit, tires, decent recovery gear, winch, lockers.... the list is endless

mainly i'd do tires and suspension and lockers if you have the $$$

hilux, cant beat them. :roll: They really are nothing special, still don't understand why everyone loves them so much apart from the fact they drive like a car on the road. Having had a lot of experience with them over the last 4 years I wouldn't own one.... Trading on the name. Lots of non-4wd ...

hilux, cant beat them.

im gessing, i have to have them wired up the same as the two pic's above, but with out the driving ligths. so where does the switch go now and which wires to use out the back of the spotties (yellow, blue, brown).

it wont be for road use......

can someone help me wire them up as im lost. i have power but go to flick the switch for the lights and nothin. im not sure which colours to use out the back of the spotties and also if i have it wired it up right with the relay.

yeah i looked at them before... im running them different to what that is showing. cause these spotties are on my head board, i dnt want to run them threw my driving lights. but run them off the batt and through a switch. so its only on/off with a switch with out having to go through the head lights ...

i tried wiring up my rally's this arvo, and every connection i did wouldnt work. i ended up givin up haha.

has anyone got a wiring diagram? it has to be easy for me to read as im no auto lecky.
