    Don't have a sport :/ I know it's kind of small, but I don't do enough to warrant the purchase of a really big one

    That's where I was thinking. I also just ordered new grill mesh and was thinking of maybe making a spot for it in there, but I don't want it to be too clustered.

    A new bolt here, a new bolt there, a new bolt everywhere.
    I went from a CaliRaised light bar to this after trying and trying to get rid of the whistling and vibration. I got the vibration to go away but the whistling was still there with the CaliRaised. So I bit the bullet and went to this. Vibration is 0 and if there is whistling neither my wife nor I can hear it at all. The only issue I had was since my mount were originally set for a CaliRaised light bar my wipers slightly rubbed the bottom of this bar. Filed the driver side down a bit and rubbing is completely gone. The light production is amazing since it has not 2 rows but 3. There is an added 3 row in the space between the other 2 rows that was occupied to make a 3rd row. Overall it was worth every penny. So much that I am buying a 52" X5 for my wife's Raptor next.

    There is nothing there to really cluster. If you like I have a 30" CaliRaised light bar with Apex stealth mounts that I can sell you. The bumper I swapped over to you takes a 20" so I bought a BajaDesigns and don't have a need for the 30"

    Thanks, but I think I'm going to stick with the small one for now. Thanks to TW I have spent a lot of money lately haha. I was planning on putting Toyota on the grill, which is why I was worried it would be clustered (I just realized I didn't mention that in the previous post).

    "My wife's Raptor".... you're a lucky lucky guy! haha

    That's real interesting and helpful information man, I appreciate it. I'm still a bit away from mounting a roof LED bar on my taco but I do have both Caliraised 32" led bar down in the bumper and ditch pods on mine and I'm loving them.
    Kinda disappointed to hear about the constant whistling on the Caliraised bar. I will keep this in mind for the future!

    LoL I wish I was that lucky. The Raptor is a double edge sword because anything I buy for mine I have to get for her lol. That gets expensive quick, fast, and in a hurry lol. Ex: Bought these20160629_095423.jpg
    A week later had to order these lol20160823_004123.jpg
    I also bought a behind the bumper Cali light bar with stealth mounts. I just never installed it since I decided to go with a new bumper instead.

    Well just got the total damage when my truck got hit parked in street, by drunk driver. $22,352.19. Besides the left rear where he hit me and the whole drivers side, I got a bent frame, rupture gas tank, left rear leaf spring damage and rear axel damage. Now waitting for payment from insurance. Took off everything I added that I could. They said since it only had 3000 miles on it and still had the new car smell they were going for a total loss instead of repair. Out of about $1200.00 of add on's, I took off about 1000.00 dollars worth to put back on my new one, whenever that will be.

    Removed air dam from my TRD Sport. Ordered a TRD Pro skid plate. Will be here tonight! I'll post pics when installed.:) I decided on this because it's a PITA to drop the skid each time you change your oil.

    Is the RC bar taller than a standard double row bar?

    Same size in the front maybe a hair taller. The biggest difference is the back where the fins are. Your standard bar is a tear drop or cone shape, however you'd like to describe it. This one is more of a deformed square shape. That is where my wipers where rubbing. If I would have purchased this first with my mounts I would not have had any ribbing because I would have drilled my holes 1cm higher on the A post and cleared the wipers.

    Does your truck have the premium and technology package? I have a TRD OR but am running into a conflict between what the RS3200 install manual is saying it's compatible with vs. what my truck is physically wired with (hood connector/wiring). Thank you!
