I unbox, install and test the new Harbor Freight Road shock edge 4 LED lights. I had to fabricate some brackets on my front bumper in order to install them. Overall i am very impressed with the quality for the price of these lights.

The placement on the number is great 👍🏻 Harbor Freight seems to be coming out with some higher quality stuff….looking forward to seeing if they hold up over the next 3 to 6 months. As always awesome video Kelly👊🏻

The Auxbeam switch panel has built-in solid state relays, there was no need to use the relay.

Damn I’d love to see that bronco. I have a ‘95 f150 with the 302. Love my ol girl. I kinda feel weird about putting new LEDs on my old truck though. They look out of place to me. I’m looking at getting some KC halogens instead.

@MacsSpecialitiesMotorsports 3 месяца назад

Wow, these lights look legit!

@americanwildchilds3992 3 месяца назад

All great... But you put the worst connector on the marker light harness. Those pierce the insulation of the wire in order to tap into the wire, while leaving it exposed to the weather. You need to either pull the wire out of the connector for the light or just cut it, soldier the 3 together and seal with heat shrink (preferably weatherproof heat shrink with the glue inside the heat shrink tube like those available at H.F.)

@jaxturner7288 3 месяца назад

Oh no! I havent gotten that far yet but those scotch locks are the proofmark of hack audio shops and caused @ half of all the electrical problems we dealt with at a GM dealer and a dodge dealer. Usually from them using scotch locks installing remote start systems but they would plant those little seeds of future green havoc in taillight harnesses for aftermarket trailer hitches and behind the radio. Any time you got an electrical related complaint on a lower mile vehicle the number one step was to check for aftermarket equipment, 99% of the time if it had equipment added by fast Timmy aftermarket, whatever the location, that was ground zero of the electrical problem. If you followed the flow chart like you were supposed to you would pull your hair out before you found the intermittent loss of signal or ground from a scotch lock that was hacked in to the ignition system randomly mid harness non existent on the wiring diagram and of course didn’t exist according to tech support. They should be outlawed but anyone caught using them definitely forfeits their man card for one year or at least until they remove them and solder or krimp+ heatshrink like they got a pair. 👊

@bungieking9468 3 месяца назад

Looking forward to 6m and 1y updates. Seems the cheaper products are good for about a year and then they start to deteriorate quickly.

@TheDon8771 3 месяца назад

That’s not completely true. I have some even less inexpensive then these that are from Amazon. 5 years old and still work as they did when I bought them. The only part that isn’t in as good of condition is the hardware. But I have a few things from harbor freight for off-road and I really like it. I think these lights will hold up. I wish my old lights would go so I can replace them with these. Not everything inexpensive is bad.

@BornRaisedInCSA 3 месяца назад

I guess if using the Spot/Flood combo, I can see the benefit of utilizing the High and Low modes. But if using the Spot only, doesn't seem like it'd make sense to use the Low mode. I know you used the Flood variant, but can you tell how much light there is from the side portions?

@ScottPlude Месяц назад

Am I correct in assuming you cannot choose just the spot beam?

@adam-n-stuff Месяц назад

I really like your S10. I have a 4cyl 2wd Sonoma. I thought about putting a posi locker in it (it has 4.11 gears stock)... That that would improve any trailing ability it might be capable of it? That and bigger tires?

@kevinmedina9872 3 месяца назад

What’s the point of the switch panel if you’re still running cables to the battery and to relays. The only correct use of the relay was for the backlight.

@anthonyraines5951 3 месяца назад

i love the video. i had a question... you spent a lot of time tuckin that winch in tight and carved out a spot of the grill for the freespool lever. it looks like the light is right in the way. does it still work? can you reach it easily?

@MuddyBeards4X4 3 месяца назад

Thanks, the lever is easily accessible behind the light. That was one of the things I made sure when I was placing the mounts.

@8Roadkill_Adventures 3 месяца назад

I am looking for some off-road light options and have seen some good reviews on these lights including yours. Question, I am assuming I can run these into my SPOD the question is how to separate the high and low when my switches are only on and off. I know I can tap into the running lights like you did but I don’t have dual switches. I don’t want to buy the wire harness if I don’t have to. Thanks for the review videos, always enjoy them.

@MuddyBeards4X4 3 месяца назад

Thanks, you would just run them on two different switches on the panel just like I did. One button is low and one button is high.

@Anomic-mo9ji 3 месяца назад

7 pin relay. Watch a couple youtube vids and you can diy it

@allanhecox9081 3 месяца назад

Do you know off hand which of the 5 wires you used for each of the low and high beam circuits? One wire will not be needed as it delivered power to light the switch, correct? I have the 6 led and I am planning on wiring them the same as you. Thanks for any help.

@MuddyBeards4X4 3 месяца назад

The wiring diagram that comes with it tells you which color wire does what.

@allanhecox9081 3 месяца назад

@@MuddyBeards4X4 thank you. I planned on using a relay, in addition to the switch panel I run, so as not to be able to supply 12v twice and torch the light.

@allanhecox9081 3 месяца назад

Did you run both pos and neg to your switch panel? I blew a fuse as soon as I triggered high, but low was fine.

@MuddyBeards4X4 3 месяца назад

Just positive, my switch panel has power and ground straight from the battery already and it is fused. The switch is only powering the relay which allows the full power directly from the battery to the lights. If you are not confident in electrical and wiring you should probably invest in the wiring harness. It’s makes it very simple.

@allanhecox9081 3 месяца назад

@@MuddyBeards4X4 I did get the harness, but in my error I ran both pos/neg to the switch panel. When I re-watched your video it looked like you only ran positive. My switch is like yours just from a different manufacturer. Thanks for your help. It's the relay post switch that's throwing me with the high low as all my other lights are just triggered by the switch in the engine bay.

@averbeck1979 3 месяца назад

Good evening i plan on wiring these to my auxbeam and using two switches as well, did you cut the wiring harness after the relay and what did you do with the fused red and black wires that were supposed to go to the battery?

@MuddyBeards4X4 3 месяца назад

No, the harness main power and ground still go directly to the battery. You want to use the wires from the switch to the Auxbeam. The Auxbeam does have build in solid state relays so the harness is not completely necessary. You could just wire the lights directly to the Auxbeam. But I prefer it having its own stand alone relay and harness. But it’s not completely necessary.

@averbeck1979 3 месяца назад

@@MuddyBeards4X4 thank you very much!!

@averbeck1979 2 месяца назад

I am sorry to keep.asking questions, but I keep blowing fuses. Which wires from the switch did you cut and put in the Auxbeam switches?

@CarlosTorres-cx1pw 2 месяца назад

@@averbeck1979 instructions say to not power both high and low beams at the same time. How I understand it , if you send power to high beam wire both high and low will turn on. So if you wire high and low beam to individual auxbeam panel switches , it will work!!! You’ll just have to remember not to turn both switches at the same time. I’m trying to decide whether or not to wire them like that a risk forgetting not to turn the both on at the same time

@@MuddyBeards4X4 I'm also in a similar boat. Do you have any pictures of which wires from the switch you plugged into the auxbeam?

I had a light bar that shorted out on black bear pass trail in Co. Some how when it happened it killed my truck well into the trail. I disconnected it and ran the trail. When I was airing up I tore out the wiring and pitched it. Never again will I buy those lights.

@donhappel9566 3 месяца назад

@@Coolhansolo You're of course free to chose whatever you want. I happen to run KC lights on my crawler but generic Amazon fake ARB Intensity lights on my more overlander-y rig. Don't know how a light bar failing could kill your truck; worst case it should just blow the fuse (you did use a relay and fuse, right?). But the point of this vid is that like many of HF's products, they've really upped their game over recent years. Not just the throw-away junk they started with. Will I buy these new lights? IDK...I don't need any more lights right now. But if I do, I may well consider them. If your only experience with HF is from years ago though, it's worth another look as they really do have some decent stuff these days. Oh sure there's still some junk too, but they have made major improvements.

Nice looking lights but that seems a little pricey for harbor freight stuff and you have to buy the harness separately. If it was 100 bucks with the harnes it would be a little easier to swallow. Lets see how they hold up over time

@MechanicalMafioso 3 месяца назад

$100 for what appears to be a high quality LED light is pricey to you? 😂 Apparently haven’t priced out other quality brand lights obviously. $100 is cheap.
