Light Bar suggestions

I'm new to the tacoma world and I'm looking to put in a light bar below the grill. Does anyone have any suggestions where the best place to look for the brackets and the light bar? Thank you for your help in advance

 

@CaliRaisedLed has lightbar brackets for that location.

 

Baja Designs would be your best bet for a light bar. Worth every cent though,

@memario1214 offers great pricing on their products

Welcome to the forum from Eastern North Carolina.

Here's a couple YouTube videos that may help:

Caliraised lights have you covered. Good prices and great customer service.

 

+1 for Cali Raised for mounting brackets. Personally, I would, and have, looked for the actual lights from a different source. Their brackets hold all the Rigid lighting on my TRD and am happy with them

 

I have used 3/4" square tubing to mount my 21" LED lightbar. The sq tubing is mounted to the Al cross member and the LED bracket. Worked fine.

 

Have you got any photos of this?

 

I just ordered the cali raised brackets and auxbeam 32" light bar. My rationale was pretty simple. Brackets was easy. Either rago or cali. Coin flip. I am sure either would be great.

Lights. That took a few days of research and thought. And you should really consider the application before you make your choice. Are they going to be used mainly on road where running them could get you a ticket for blinding people or mainly off road Where you want them as bright as possible? In my case, it's mainly on road as a supplement to my high beams. I don't need 300 watts sucking on my alternator output. Why spend the extra dough?

 

You won’t be disappointed

 

I'll throw in my recommendation for the CaliRaised mount. That thing is solid once installed.
Like others, however, I looked elsewhere for the light bar itself. I was looking for something a little better than the rebranded Chinese bars, but definitely not trying to spend Rigid/Baja Designs money. After reading through a lot of reddit and other forums I found a company called Stedi out of Australia. I ordered a bar from them and am extremely pleased with it!
Just thought I'd throw out my experience and a recommendation I never see around here...

Keep in mind all of the prices on their site are AUD, so feel free to Google the conversion (USD is actually cheaper).

Lastly, to be fair, there was a minor modification I had to do to get the Stedi bar to fit (it's very stout). There's a bracket that comes up by the grill that the hood release latch mounts to. I had to cut a little bit of the bottom of that bracket off.
Hope this information helps someone!

 

Here's what I went with https://www.tacomaworld.com/posts/20914136/

 

Do you have a part number or link to the Auxbeam light that you chose? There seems to be a bunch to choose from.

 

Thanks
