    Well guys... I hate to break it to you, but I'm shipping out for Navy RTC in 10 days and theres just not enough time for me to start on my project. I'm REALLY sorry for letting you all down but I promise, once I'm done with basic and A-School, I'll start on it.

    Ight, guess that means i'll be fabbing up my own. Today I picked up some 1.5'' steel tubing and am going to start taking some measurements. I went for the 1.5'' because the 2'' seemed to look toooo big. I'll take pics of the progress(mainly my mistakes) and hopefully that will help you get a good idea of what to and not to do when you get back.

    Good find. I wish they showed the picture of the 01-04 model tho. I already got mine half ass fabbed up so theres no backing down now.

    Gary...You are so far from letting us down it's not even funny, I am actually proud of you for two reasons. Any "dude" with the right tools and equipment can spend some time making a light bar, but it takes a "man" to serve his country. The second reason is the fact that you got us all thinking about the idea of building a light bar for our deserving trucks, and I can't wait to see what comes of it. Good luck brother.

    Well thank you VERY much for puting into that perspective!!! It's my honor and moral duty to serve this great country to preserve the rights and fair treatment of ALL Americans. I will still keep my word that I'll tackle this lightbar idea of mine once I'm sone with my schooling.

    I'll be going to Corps School after Boot Camp, and then from there I'll be going to Field Med down in San Diego, CA. Then the adventure begins.

    You should talk to Snobord552 (Eddie) about what he can come up with. He recently starting a build on a multi-tab light bar for the 01-04 1st Gens, I know that the mounting locations might be different on the 95, but if you snap some quality pics and provide him with the measurements of the available mounting points you do have, the possibilities could be endless. Below is the link to his thread.
