Lights package

[rvrlvr]

Hi Chesapeake. Just got back from 2 weeks camping. Dangerous Road and Sedona. She did well!!! Now back to work. However, loved what I did with the lights, although I need to do some adjusting, was still a bit nervous on some of the inclines, but I think that is a conversation I started in another post. Otherwise... all was perfect. Took some pics and learned ALOT!! Can you explain how I can post them?

A friend of mine who works at Phillips in Va beach did the install. Incase you haven't read the post thread, I'm a girl... love to ride, but admit I do not do wiring or install roof racks, but I do clean her. I'm looking at how to post the pics? Although Chesapeakes rover in the snow I will not be able to top with my pics. Assuming you are looking for info on installing some lights?

As for posting pictures, I find it easiest to open a www.photobucket.com account. From there, I like to organize my trips by Date YY-MM-DD so the latest trip is always at the bottom. For example, I went on one last weekend and named the folder 10-04-24 Chinamans Gulch. It's easy to upload your photos to this site, then you can copy and paste code they supply for you to link them on any forum. Let me know if you want more info.

Got your PM. Thank you! Where do I go to upload the photos once I set up the photobucket account?

I just upload mine to the gallery here, literally go the gallery and look under the "4 most recent Images" Click "Upload" which is I think 2nd from the right and then click "Browse" and upload your photos... Then go to your gallery and click the image you want to see and right click it and open it in new tab then copy and paste the URL (of that new tab) after clicking the "Insert Image" icon on the "posting toolbar" thingy and then wa-la! You got pics.

... But Photobucket works too

First plan of action would be to create a new album. Should be a tab near the top that says "All Albums". Click on that. Then you'll see another button near the top that says create a new album. In your case, maybe name it LR3 light install, or the trip you just took. After you create an album, the website will automatically place you in that album. Click the "Upload Images and Videos" button in th center near the top and locate them on your computer. You can select a bunch at a time. Allow them to upload (you'll see the % as they upload). Once done, you can add tags to each to skip the step by clicking "go to album" or something like that. You'll see thumbnails of the pictures. If you hover over a picture, you'll notice some options pop up under them. click in the box that says "Image Code" and hold CTRL & C for copy. Then come back to your reply here and click paste. Continue copy/paste until you have all the pictures you want in a thread. That should be all you need.

I posted some Photobucket steps in your other thread

Regarding driving lights, has anyone attempted to mount non-LR driving lights onto the OEM A-Frame bar?

 

[angasreid]

Yeah I've put some Hellas in the A-Frame. The lighting is awesome. They make a few different lenses for one for distance, one for close, one for in between the two, which is what I have.

I have to get a machine shop to make some aluminum blocks for the Hella bracket to mount. The whole thing was just measuring and what made it fit.

Here's a picture.

 

[JackMac]

Thanks for the pic. I figured that some customization was needed to mount Hella's to an A-Frame. Just considering options at this point...
