    I installed an 80's Land Cruiser badge on my mesh grill and had my 4xInnovations sliders welded on...and I changed out the rear differential oil.

    I got my 22" light bar in the mail yesterday, anyone got any tips to mount it on in the grill? I believe I will need to fabricate a mounting bracket to go from the crash bars and just mount it on that. Any tips would be much appreciated!

    Here’s a photo dump of how I did mine. Aluminum bar stock across the sheet metal parts with a spacer in the middle for support. I used some rubber washers on the outsides to reduce vibration (probably not necessary). Used the supplied tall mounts from rigid and it worked perfect. Had it like this for about 2 years now, rock solid :thumbsup:

    Put the flag on today...

    Today we honor those people lost that horrible day. The innocent men and woman working in the towers and the brave and courageous men and woman of the FDNY, NYPD and Port Authority. You all ran towards disaster and did what most of us could never do. You will never be forgotten. No matter how hard I try I will never be as brave as all of you, you paid the ultimate sacrifice to save the innocent. America loves you.

    The data available in the head unit guages is amazing. Fluid temps, mpg, all kinds of cool stuff. I'll create a dashboard for my cross country trip to watch oil, transmission temps, distance to empty, tire pressure, etc

    wow that thing is cool, no need for Scanguage, does that unit come with GPS directional, and is it just plug and play into existing wiring harness?

    It comes with android auto so I use google maps for directions. Check out crutchdield for more info. There is a few wiring harnesses that come with it specific to your vehicle. Professionally installed in about 1.5 hours.
