    New rear lighting

    Always thought we needed more/better lighting on the rear of our 337. Just need to tidy up the wires a bit and it will be all set.

    Is that just running lights or is it run/turn/brake lights?

    I agree, all of these rigs need more lighting back there. And higher up so that it's not just the first vehicle that sees them. I had two additional sets of run/turn/brake lights added horizontally, to the rear of my toyhauler. Here's a pic of them with the brakes on.....

    JC, did you have to pull anything apart to access the taillight wiring?

    It is run, turn and brake lights. I had the dealership do it when it was in there getting my fresh water tank replaced under warranty. I do know that they went through the nightstands on each side of the bed in this trailer so it'll be different from yours Tobi and Jim.

    Here's a link that may be of help to you in regards to the lights.... https://www.mygrandrv.com/fo...sibility-added

    I might also suggest that you get lights that are submersible (waterproof as in those used on boat trailers). Those are completely sealed and you will not have to worry about rain, etc.


    Here is a list of the mods that I've had done:

    * LED run, turn, brake lights to the rear
    * 50A Hardwired Surge Guard with inside LED readout.... http://www.trci.net/products/surge-g...-hardwire-plus
    * TTS TPMS w/signal booster for all the tires on the trailer and the truck
    * Appt. to get all new Goodyear G614 Tires and metal valve stems
    * Printed the wheel torque chart and will be laminating that tomorrow for future reference.
    * 3 axle tire covers
    * ceramic window tint (the clear tint that keeps the interior much cooler) in the truck. Looking at possibly getting this done in the 376TH.
    * 160W solar panel on the roof (already installed)
    * Splendide washer/dryer combo (already installed)
    * Dual cartridge water filter system (one for solids and the other for chemicals).
    * 36' 50A extension cord.
    * Clear elbow for flushing the black and gray tanks.
    * Electric over hydraulic disc brakes.

    And here's a link to my posts of all those mods..... https://www.mygrandrv.com/fo...Momentum-376TH
