    Schools starting soon and I need a way to secure my LED bar to prevent theft. Can you guys refer to a source to get compatible light locks? I have the 42" radius bar.

    +1. Been looking around and haven't found anything half decent outside of welding the bolts to the brackets.

    Maybe 2 small tack welds on each bolt head would be good enough? I'm gonna do the same although it will be more work when you want to remove the bar and brackets

    We will figure out the thread/size. Please don't tack weld your light bars!

    Eric and Nathan,

    Update for following please:

    Order #524 (Front bumper original style, bare metal)

    Order #1005 (Full set of aluminum/steel skids powdercoated)

    Will they both be finished up and ship at the same time?

    Thanks!

    Mounted the 50" Rampage Radius LED bar. The light bar brackets were modded by creating a 10 degree swivel point with a set screw adjustment utilizing and modding the existing hardware. Nylon bushings were inserted in the channels so that once the bar was mounted there would be no compression on the rubber roof rail as well. The light bar brackets then had to be bent near the mount points to accommodate a better fitment.

    Setting the tolerances

    Google "LED light bar security bolts" or "light locks". I think SDHQ has them.
