can you tilt them up and down and do you know what part # daylighter that is

I'm guessing 6" slimlight or something like that, I might have to eventually get new lights for my lights up top and I need some that tilt. I made some brackets for my daylighters but I would still need them to tilt farther if I lift the rear anymore

this is what I mean

yeah I've had to cut 1" out of the spacer then make those brackets so I can fold them down and now I have maybe 1/4" clearance with them folded as far down as I can get.

The flip side is, I am 1" lower in the rear than the front, so if I get new leaf springs to raise the rear up I'm going to be screwed

yea they tilt. here is a pic of the bracket. they can tilt forward to a little past parallel to the ground. back not quiet as far.... there are two screws one on each side of the mount to hold it at the right angle. i dont know the part # i bought used. i can look into it tho if you want

cool deal, don't worry about it I can quit being lazy and find them. I wasn't sure if any kc lights came with that type of bracket or not.

Thanks

edit, hell yeah. Those could solve my problems when the time comes, I can get hellas that fold down but I want a 6" round light. I've already kind of crunched one light because it came up a bit while I was driving and didn't notice going into the garage haha
