I had a few problems I killed another alternator and my breaks are locking up. I figured out the alternator problem. The breaks I’m not sure what’s going on with them but it’s locking all 4 tires up. I’m not sure how to unlock them for sure but if I pump the breaks hard to the floor a few times they seam to unlock. My guess is the master cylinder is locking up
I just put 1 new caliper on the front before this trip. Maybe that’s it but I don’t see how one bad caliper can stop all 4 side’s because the master cylinder has front and back lines separatedHe replaced his calipers and it solved the problem. That was also on an ABS vehicle. I feel like if you had master cylinder or booster issues you would have problems more common to those than just brakes locking up.
It ended up being a bad break booster. I ended up having to run my dad’s single booster out of his because they don’t make boosters anymore and I had a zukicon trip to go to. I ended up running a 1 1/16 Subaru master. Breaks still suck though. I think the dual booster with 1 inch bore was betterIt could also be calipers or slides potentially hanging up.
I went out with a buddy one winter off roading. He would lightly touch his brakes and they would just lock up, sending him down declines sideways.

Thanks. it’s 104-105 inches. it was around 108 but when I out boarded the leaf springs I shortened the WB to fit the tires in the fender betterThis thing is turning out really good. What did the wheelbase end up at?
Nilight 7Inch Round Offroad Lights 2PCS 120W High Low Beam IP68 LED Driving Lights Pods Amazon.comLink to the lights?
Ok these things are really nice for the price. If you get them used on Amazon they’re $110 a pair. The video actually shows an accurate view of how they work. The low beam has a nice cut off line so it doesn’t blind people too bad. No one has flashed there lights at me yet so it must not be to bad. These lights will be perfect if they can keep the moisture out but only time will tell.
I dig this little rig! If I ever built something again, it would be a Sidekick/Tracker.
I hadn't seen those particular Nilight LEDs before. I really like them. I've ran many other Nilight products, and out of all the Amazon China lights they seem to be one of the best. I've had zero issues with any of their bars, pods, or round lights, even in PNW moisture.
Nilight and mictunning are my favorite, they also seem to have actually been around a while now, unlike the other brands that pop up and fade away.
Now that I’ve actually used them off-road I’m 100% happy with them and completely recommend them. The lake bed got all my shit rusty from the salt and these held up good.Thanks for posting that, I've gone through a bunch of different lights over the years and it's definitely a crap shoot.
The last ones claimed to be a high low beam with the low beam being amber, which I like a lot for snow or dust. The low beams work well with a wide low pattern. However, the "high beams" are basically a cartoon spot light like at 100 feet it's a 1' circle
I'm planning on replacing everything firewall forward with tube on my 81 Toyota, and I think I'll give these head lights a try.
