Turn your sidemarkers into park turns with a 1157 socket. Search it has been done.

p.s. Ugly bumper but it looks like it can take out a small car!

small update getting a free arb compressor set up compressor solenoids wiring etc free from my buddy said he could get enough air out of it to make it worth him time for on board air he had no tank just compressor
yeah for me

here are some new pics of my rig






added the air fitting to see if she would hold ...... no problems put in 200 psi to see if the endcaps would blow off while standing back bout 25 feet

let the air out now will wait and see what other fittings / plumbing ill need
when i get the arb setup
cant wait been looking at train air horn to really get em to scatter the bumper and the flat black rattle can does a good job of that now

also lincoln lock the rear the same way that they did here

and added 2 pieces of round stock on the spider gears sorry no pics not touching my $ 1500 digital camera while covered in gear oil
