Here's a shot from above showing the Diode Dynamics SS3 Max Pods in action.

I have these mounted up on the front of my Expedition One Mule Rack.

The Max with Combo Lens produces 46,000 cd. The Combo lens combines both Driving and Flood optics with a focused 65x25 degree pattern. My thinking here was that I will use on the last long stretches of trail we run in Moab coming after dark. Having them mounted up allows great coverage.

Here's a quick guide of the different beam patterns for reference.

I figured I'd post the specs on the new wheels as it might be helpful for anyone looking at new wheels.

Here's the specs:
- Fuel Off-Road, Block Beadlock D124.
- Offset -15mm, 4.41" B.S.
- 17x9

I ran a 3.5"/-32mm Offset on my first set of wheels for my JL buld, which was pretty aggressive offset with the new wider axles on the JL Rubicon. I think this 4.41"/-15mm is a better all around fit, bringing the wheel in ~ 1" from my previous setup. I still have plenty of offset so the tires/wheels will keep the body off the obstacles on the trail, which was important to me.

One of my favorite builds on here! If I ever get a driveway, higher garage opening, or street parking I am getting that Expedition one rack.

This rig needs to be able to:
- Cruise the interstate at 85mph all day long, with my wife being comfortable behind the wheel.

Is this still true? 😀
