Shit! Rigid was my back up. Being Canadian, i still see buying USA products as buying Local. I will have a peek at the lights you mentioned and youtube the crap out of them and go from there. Thank you so much for your help.
My brother has a BMW GS 1200 Adventure... Bastard!
Light are used before the approach. we take pics for rotor clearance as well as obstacle clearance. then send them to the pilots enroute. all lights are extinguished when helo is approx 5NM out.
- What have I bought...Nothing yet.
- I have heard that Baja Designs is an incredible product, lifetime warranty and they a blindingly bright
- I want to be able to make it look like daylight from the mirrors forward. I will be able to control each light group separately using a switch bros 12...
Question for you, Kurt... I will be getting the Fab Four Overland bed rack. 2 Lights for the left, 2 lights for the right and 2 lights for the rear. What lights would you recommend? I prefer Baja Designs, but it's not a must. I want try to light up a 200ft swath around the back of the truck...
That we do, we have small amber, white and red alternating led's that we set for the LZ, however, the scene lighting is used for obstruction and blade clearance photo's that are sent to the pilots before approach. Bright lights are shut off when help is approx 5nm out.
Dually Noted. However, I will be able to shut them off. It will be used as a SAR vehicle, so we will also be using it for scene work and a very slim chance, but could be used to mart a helo landing site. But, I will not drive with them on above the hood!
Good to know! I will check out YouTube and see what I am looking for. Basically I want to light up the World in front of me. So far I have a perfect score finding everything the SAR reps have hidden. They are SURE I am going to miss something with the Gladiator. There is a $150 bottle of scotch...
Hello all!
For lighting I was thinking of the the following lighting (lights will be listed as if you were standing in front of the Gladiator looking toward the driver) not that it really matters anyway... ALL lights are Baja designs

I might be completely off here, but I think diesels of the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s were far better than heir has counterparts for towing and longevity. With today’s engines and engineering, I think they have closed the gap significantly.
The ONLY reason I am getting the diesel is because I live in...
This is the EXACT rack that I want! Could you snap a few pics of inside the bed? I would like to know how it mounts into the bed. Did you have to drill a bunch of holes?
as for lights,check out the Baja Designs Squadrons. I know there is an amber Squadron.
From what I have seen and read...
I want the diesel because of how far I have to tow and because I want power at altitude. In Canada it would probably be cheaper to buy the 3.6 and throw a turbo on it, but there goes the warranty. So in the end it wouldn't be cheaper at all. So power at altitude and distance of towing...
I know I am about to be told I'm WRONG..or just an idiot, but here goes... First off my math will be off slightly due to rounding errors as I live in Canada.
Here is the way I look at it. The diesel here is $9,000 more (in the Wrangler as the JT doesn't have the option yet). Right Now 87 it...
