Is at a short bed?

I was wondering which lifted looks better with roll bar and light, long bed or short Bethany was fall guy?

What purpose did the headlamp coverings serve?

Many places were required by law. Most good off-road lights are not legal or street use, so the covers made sure they were not visible on the street if they got "accidentally turned on".

That's the requirement in Virginia. The lights have to be covered for the yearly state inspection. Technically, a police officer could cite you for having the lights uncovered while driving, but I doubt they'd bother. They would definitely throw a fit, if they saw you using the lights for highway driving.
