Everything needed to do this job the easy way: 48” LED Tailgate Light Strip

[@abyssflight3907]

you can now get a IMS tank made for the tw200 from procycle. I've installed one, it wasn't to difficult. It doubles the fuel capacity of the T-dub!

[@TDubsKid]

nice! I may get one before long!

[@birdmandave]

Good idea Wes. They should of came with this from the factory

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks! Its crazy that they dont

[@davidhanger5795]

Reminds me I need to rewire my tow wiring. I have the same issue hauling motorcycles on my Black Widow carrier and I've been lucky so far I haven't gotten a ticket.

[@TDubsKid]

for sure. I have been lucky too but wanted to get it done before something bad happend

[@PatsTravels]

Smart upgrade. Yes, those Klein crimpers are fantastic. I wish i had not waited so long to buy mine

[@TDubsKid]

thanks! yeah I love those crimpers to death, same!

[@jameswerner503]

Thanks, after seeing your video I did this and it works great!

[@TDubsKid]

Awesome to hear it worked out, glad I could help! it was scary driving a lot in traffic without those lights. they should some with lights to begin with

[@ipaddlemyowncanoe.7441]

That's a good little video. You might want to think about moving your license plate in case you get an overzealous cop who wants to give you a ticket cuz he can't see your license plate. I did that online. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦

[@TDubsKid]

thanks! and i'm not too worried, I get pulled over all time never seem to get any tickets

[@noyopacific]

Thanks for the video ! Question, "If you guys want a more detailed video . . . maybe I'll do one on my OTHER CHANNEL." What is your other channel ?

[@TDubsKid]

no problem! you can find it here: www.youtube.com/@4WheelKid

[@PSBEadventures]

Great idea man. Especially when going into town for supplies etc

[@TDubsKid]

For sure! Sketch when the lights cant be seen

[@alexmacdonald258]

Super idea, Wes! I'll do that with mine, as well. Thanks for this, VERY nice!!!!

[@TDubsKid]

Hey thanks! Glad to help, much safer driving especially at night cc

[@tor2753]

Been wanting to do the same thing for the RAV4 I use to carry my Tdub as well, great video

[@TDubsKid]

Nice! Its a good mod especially if you drive with it a lot

[@jamieharmon4928]

Yeah my KX300 fell off my black widow rack 2 days ago. I didn't have it in gear Even with the ratchet straps it rolled off to one side The straps did their job but it was my fault. Luckily the KLX only suffered minor damage I was only doing about 10 mph. So yeah strapping down one tire is definitely important

[@TDubsKid]

dang! that's crazy, I always strap mine down super tight and never had a problem. glad it wasn't too bad

[@AlexW-zo6ol]

I did mine as well. Great install.

[@TDubsKid]

nice way less likely to get rear ended

[@Mayjay87]

Nice job! Definitely easier to see.

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks! For sure, always made me nervous driving at night

[@PanzerRatten]

I did this exact setup and took my 4runner/TW combo from WA to MN and back. Except, my bike hitch was from harbor freight 😆

[@TDubsKid]

Nice! The motorcycle hitch carriers work great with a little work

[@1966dc]

Great project. Well done.

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks! Been putting it off way too long haha

[@MO-vr1jg]

Well done.

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks

[@MartinRanger65]

Don’t obscure your tag, I move my tag to the Cycle carrier I installed some LED lights on my camper. Shell, it’s above my TW.

[@TDubsKid]

I don't care if the tag is obscured just care about the lights. nice!

[@wc7568]

Dude! I made extended pilot screws so you can adjust the mixture on the carb without tools. How do I get in contact with you so I can send you one for freesies?!? It would be sick for the high altitude CO terrain!!!

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks! Would be cool to check it out, sent you the address on ig

[@CBrown459]

I got pulled over and got a warning for this exact reason a few years back. State Trooper said he couldn't see my brake lights or turn signals. I promptly added trailer lights to fix the issue.

[@TDubsKid]

Nice, I have been by many cops and they didn’t bother pulling me over. But its a good thing to add

[@Omar_Campos]

Hey do You know someone that can possibly recreate the 1996 decals for the tw200

[@TDubsKid]

I dont unfortunately i would just get an aftermarket decal kit

[@zextexz2472]

Im thinking about getting the dg exhaust but do i have to jet the carb on my tdub or is it ok?

[@TDubsKid]

I have never messed with my carb

[@zextexz2472]

@@TDubsKid thanks bro

[@MrSims-ky2ne]

Rubber wire grommets, otherwise nicely done!

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks!

[@anotheryoutuber_]

i dont need to add lights, i need to add balloons to my bike so my hitch can handle it.

[@TDubsKid]

Haha fair 😆

[@dustinswatsons9150]

Should I leave the video at 200 likes for tw200 .. or should I dislike 201 likes so it can stay there

[@TDubsKid]

Haha crazy 🤪

[@s125x]

Don't waste your time and money - buy a 48" LED tailgate light strip. Plug and play solution for 15 bucks.

[@TDubsKid]

Na this is way better than
