The 30' light bar in lower valance

So right now i have a bull bar and 20 inch led but im taking it off tonight and selling it to a friend. Im wanting to put a 30 inch in the lower valance. Is there place i can get brackets to do so? im thinking about getting the rough country 30 inch double or single row. How would i mount it there? and is there any cutting of anything.

 

This is the route I was going to go:

Didn't feel like wasting $80 though..

 

Also do you have to take the whole bumper off to install

 

To install those brackets? Yes.

 

Since your truck is a '12+ model, go with the single row, it will fit in the space better. I have a 32" single row on my truck and fits just about perfect, save for a bit of trimming on the far ends. I was able to bolt mine directly to the crash bar, so no brackets needed. You'll want to remove the grill and the black part of the bumper (some clips), but you can leave the rest of the bumper attached.

 

You should forget about Rough Country and go with AVEC

 

Interesting not sure if i want to do this or just put a 20inch bar on my bull bar.

 

THIS!

 

Or Heretic Studios

Single Row that has as many lumens as most double row bars.

 

You'll have to cut if you're going to bring it outside of the valence (and likely need a bracket kit).

I installed a 30" Avec on the crash bar, behind the grate. Yes you'll have to take the bumper off.

a) no cutting of anything
b) going to be a hell of a lot harder to steal
c) stealthy
d) Probably lose a bit of flood light, but not much.



There are LOTs of posts about this in the lighting section.

 

thanks helped me out with my decision

 

I thought the same thing when I first clicked ha
