    You can put two RTTs up, but I get 12 more mpgs and can fit 35s with no lift. Trade offs...

    True, but I want to put scene lights up there instead, like up above.

    @Doozy4212 if you take a quick peek at that drawing, I want to be able to put the Baja S1s up in the corners, but the lights themselves would be too short to go over the grooveTEK. Think the normal light bar brackets you have would work, or L shape bracket would be better?

    You want the S1s to light perpendicular to truck, correct?

    Do you want them flush?

    Did you say you want to mount to the tie down not the armor. A little more drawing of a detailed top and side view would help. Or clamp/duck tape of hold one up and snap a pic.

    Not necessarily perpendicular, a little of an angle to lessen the overlap between the two.

    Not flush, probably want them to be adjustable.

    I would prefer to mount them to the load bars, that way I can move then around a little bit.

    ICON8 Lift -285s. upTOPoverland rack.
    Get an 1/8” thick galvanized or aluminum L bracket that is the right size. Mark up some cardboard to figure that out.
    On the base of the L bracket, drill a hole in line with one of the bar channels for a Tnut bolt.
    Mount the S1 rear mount (bail) to the L bracket upper leg at the height you want with a decent bolt and star nut.
    Align the whole mount
    on the rack bar (rotation) and mark the second off center hole (or a slot to allow for rotation adjustments). Drill and file slot.
    Once you like it, disassemble and paint.

    You adjust angle with the bail, rotation with the slot and pitch with the S1 rear mount.

    Almost exactly like that, yeah, I would want to fine tune it a little bit just so it looks more like a part of the actual rack. Also why I would like it to be custom built, so it's got the same thickness and powder coat. Possibly with an Uptop logo too. I'll draw up some detailed photos tomorrow.
