    I bought the LED bar from a member here and he made the brackets himself, but these brackets are different since the light bar has moveable mounts on the bottom

    If you are looking at buying a pair for a regular light bar you can contact tacoman and see if he will make you some

    No problem bud, I'm really tempted to go ahead and purchase your mounts and get a double row :anonymous:

    Ok, in need of some help, hopefully this is just me being stupid but I am stuck. I picked up my OME Dakars today and attempted to install them. The problem I am having is the front is not lining up. I measured the leafs and they are about an inch shorter from the center bolt that holds the leafs together to the front mount. Any suggestions???

    ...too much shit to list.
    Do you have the shackle bolted in? If so disconnect it. Lot easier to bolt in the front spring hanger first, and the shackle after.

    I'm 99% sure they aren't backwards. I have Toytec 1" Lift Shackles but the problem is the bolt that holds the pack together is seated in the hole on the axle and I can't move the leafs any farther forward...
