But, not sure I'll be towing at night much anymore, old eyes don't like it.



thats awesome!! Gonna be killer.

and yeah, I get the night vision, mines not great either. funny I rarely use the lights on the trailer because don’t drive at night much towing lol. But I dig em. Those boogey lights are cool as sh*t!

Yeah, hard to justify the cost when I won’t be towing much at night, but I will most definitely put the lighted whips on the back of the drive guard so they will illuminate the white transom. I just wish we weren’t hav’n this cold snap in GA right now. Wanna get this project completed and enjoy it!!

Kinda smart laying the drive guard up on top of the frame rails to raise its overall height. I'm sure that will help big time in and out of driveways!

Yes Sir, and the hills around NE Georgia. I had the same set-up on the trailer under the Tonto boat.
