@@ragingkajun86 George, when we installed these lights Rapid Fire wasn't available, so we didn't show it in this video. Rapid Fire does in fact flash rapidly when the brakes are applied for a split send or so. please call our customer service guys for more info if you need it. 800-977-2767
It's astounding how many brain farts said they didn't see the lights demo'd. What I would like to see is after the installation, both lights operating in sequential hazard flashing mode. I'm particularly biased toward the '73 - '80 body, with emphasis on the '75 model year ¾ ton chassis trucks and barn door Suburbans, mostly because I bought a '75 K20 pickup, standard cab, 350 4bolt and granny 4speed, new from the dealership I worked for at the time. I could change the rotation of the earth in double low range. JK! I did manage to clear a busy intersection of a 5ton work truck and its tandem axle trailer with a BIG backhoe on deck. Made quite a spectacle of ourselves for a moment. The truck was lost to a bad marriage and trying to make a towing company work. My current truck is a '75 C-20 crew cab long bed with a 350 4bolt and granny 4speed. It's semi retired, but still has great potential. Just needs some minor fix-up. I do believe it will be flashing LEDs in the near future.
These will not put any extra load on the flasher by themselves. The only time you need an LED specific flasher is when you convert ALL flashing/blinking lights in the system to LED.
Eduardo, It's difficult to troubleshoot your problem here on RUclips comments. Please call our shop and talk to one of our techs so we can help you figure it out.
The Yellow wire is used if you want to switch the brake light to "attention" braking or standard. Check out this other video we made that demonstrates that a bit: ruclips.net/video/KWX6h8XAc9k/видео.html
I have installed these and added the LED flasher because I upgraded all signals to LED. Everything works fine until I turn my headlights on then my rear turn signals flash once and hold steady. Since I have replaced all sockets checked all grounds, replaced the led flasher, and even bought another set of LED tail lights. Same problem exists. If I plug standard bulbs in everything works fine. Any ideas why this is happening?
It's a ground issue, no question about it. LED's run on so little voltage that any minor ground loop problem could potentially light the LED's. If it only happens when the headlights are on, start by checking the ground on the headlamps, then parking lamps and side markers. Also check that your dash cluster has a dedicated ground wire to the chassis or body.
I have a 1984 Chevy Silverado c10 I would like to convert the head lights and the tail lights to led would u possibly have part numbers for any of that if so it's would help me I can not find it anywhere the part store just sells me a led bulb that heats up my factory lenses for the tail lights
We have found that the only time you need the LED Flasher relay is when you convert ALL the lights to LED (parking, side marker, tail lamp, etc). If any of the lights remain incandescent then the stock type relay will work.
I added these and even the led flasher and my passenger side only has running and backup..no brakes on either side and only signal on driver side..what ls missing????
REALLY wanna grab these! Only concern: I recently purchased some OEM style Klearz clear tail lenses, and initially intended on purchasing these tail lamps to go with them, but I cant tell whether or not with these tail lenses you can remove the LED circuit board to embed on a different set of lenses? Can you folks confirm if the circuit board on these can be transferred to another set of lenses without needing to use a dremel or any such thing? Also, Merry Christmas and happy holidays!
There are Deluxe ans Standard versions, the Deluxe has the trim on it, Standard does not. Here's a link: www.brotherstrucks.com/Fleetside-Lamps-Lenses-Trim/products/2364/

@@jamesjordan7460 You only need an electronic flasher if you are converting ALL of your lights on that circuit to LED. As long as there are still incandescent bulbs on the system you don't need one.
@@jamesjordan7460 If ALL your lights on the blinker circuit are now LED then yes, 100% you'll need to change the flasher. Otherwise, the problem is being caused by a bad ground that is diverting power to your LED's. Because the LED's take so litter power to light up, it only takes a VERY small amount of power from a poor ground loop to cause what you're describing.
@@jamesjordan7460 If everything works until you turn on the headlights (which also turns on the parking lights) then you have a ground loop issue, probably with one of your parking lights or side markers. Try running a dedicated clean ground wire from the parking light housings directly to a GOOD ground.
On a different subject....I have a 78 Chevy C10 with a big fat chrome step bumper on the back. I want to take it off and install a chrome bumper like is on this truck in the video. Can you give me details of part number and pricing on a rolled chrome bumper like this that will fit my 78?

Pulled mine out and the housings were melted! Glad I chose to go LED and went this route, these are killer! Thanks for doing this brothers 🍻🤙🏼
Our pleasure!
My dad just gave me his 1977 Chevy C10 and can’t wait to put new tail lights
Would be nice to see what the tail lights look like powered up.
Fast forward to 6:01 in the video and you'll see them in action, both as sequential LED and as standard LED. Thanks, BROTHERS

You've got great history with Chevy Trucks!
The screws on mine are T-20 or 15 on the outside and Phillips on the inside .
That's a great idea. It would definitely slow down anyone who thought they might like to steal a pair. Nice!
mine is the torx as well 1986 Chevy custom deluxe k20 3/4 ton longbed 4x4 farm truck.
thanks Will Farrells uncle.
Might have added a flasher relay during the video. The old one went work. If it does it’s just a matter of time it goes out due to led use.
These will not put any extra load on the flasher by themselves. The only time you need an LED specific flasher is when you convert ALL flashing/blinking lights in the system to LED.
Seen this truck boogie down in "Mexico" recently
O.M.G that truck is perfect!!
Thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching!
Great fix. Love your parts Brothers!
Do you have an assembly with an amber turn signal in it for use here in Australia?
WOW, i like this sequential :D
It does look pretty cool! Thanks for watching!
That's a beautiful truck
I’m also having trouble putting in the socket “5:38”. I push it in and turn it and it’s still loose...

Can you hard wire these in without using the bulb sockets? Installing a 18 circuit Auto Wire wiring kit in my 73 K10.

Available now www.brotherstrucks.com/Headlights-Trim/products/2360/
Thanks for asking!
BROTHERS Truck Parts awesome after my tail lights finally come in I'm going to buy those
Do you offer any security hardware or bits? I can see these getting ripped right off.
You can use one way screws if you'd like. We don't offer any type of security hardware
Hey I purchased these tail lights and when I installed them my turn signals don’t work, what would be the problem?
Call the shop and we'll go through it. 800-977-2767
Do they make them for older dodge trucks?
No sir, we just do Chevy & GMC
Do these need an LED flasher relay?

You would have to do a fair amount of modification to get the lenses separated from the circuit board.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV all right. I appreciate the response! Hope y'all had a great holiday 🤘
do you have led lights for Dodge Ram
No sir, we only sell GM truck parts.
Very nice. I have a 1989 Silverado, will this conversion work the same way on my truck?
It won't work on the '89 truck, tail lamps are different.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV Do they a conversion kit for my truck?
@@lloydderksen1754 Not sure, we don't carry parts for the '89 so we aren't familiar with whats offered.
If it’s the old body style they should work. Remember the old body style continued thru 89 I think in 3/4 ton trucks & 91 in 1 tons & suburban
i like it, does the chrome bezel come with?
There are Deluxe ans Standard versions, the Deluxe has the trim on it, Standard does not. Here's a link: www.brotherstrucks.com/Fleetside-Lamps-Lenses-Trim/products/2364/
What about the marker light bulb?
The LED becomes the marker. You just orphan the plug for the marker.
So what's the difference between an led circuit panel and just replacing the 1157 or 1156 bulbs with led bulbs?
The amount of light/lumens that are projected as well as the "fullness" of the illumination in the lens.
