Lightbar mounted lazy style?

x

 

yup! I have a pair of Duallys in my valance right now...and just installed an 8 inch bar either side the same way. PM me, i'm on my phone. i'll respond when i get on my laptop

 

Ummm....ok

 

Some self tapping screws into the crash bar using the brackets that come with the light bar is as easy as it gets

 

5min lock tight epoxy. With some rtv silicon to weatherproof the seal.

 

Kentucky chrome (Ducked Tape) lol.

 

Not sure how you'd do it without any hardware or being lazy. Unless your light bar spans to where your crash beam attaches to your body (like 30 inch bar?), you'd need to put some angle aluminum or something in there like I did to drill holes in and mount them to. That's for your lower valence. Assuming you use one light bar, you'd want to move your license plate since it's illegal to not have one in the front in Alaska.

Alternatively if you wanted it in the lower valence you'd have to attached it to your crash beam which would require cutting out parts of your lower valence and drilling through to your crash beam to attach it to.

As for behind the grill, you'd want a different grill other than stock so the light actually goes out. As far are mounting that, good luck.

You won't be able to just shove a light bar in your lower valence or grill and have it stay there. Lol

 

Easiest way to mount a 20 inch is to do what I did with mine and just drill two holes through your bumper infront of your grill. Hmm, I foresee your trucks lighting looking exactly like mine.

 

I get the don't want to spend $80 on mounts, but I don't get the no hardware thing.

 

Ok Arin, I realize I don't have a hood scoop, I have the offroad package and I wouldn't really want one. I was talking about how you would add a 20" to your truck would look exactly like mine. And didn't you just shove your rigid in there not mount it? And like the person above, why do you want no hardware? And our trucks looking alike is impossible? We have the same truck you just have a sport hood on yours. And honestly the easiest way you could mount a 20 inch is to do what I did, it required no additional hardware except a few washers and maybe some loctite.

And obviously we'd have differences lol. I'm not going to throw aftermarket projects on my truck or nite shade my fog lights. Did you ever get that stuff off or are you keeping it? Seems contradictory to be adding light bars after purposely decreasing your legal driving light output.

I did not spend $80 on hardware and brackets

 

Don't be lazy. Just do it right. It's not that much more work. Wiring in the relay and switch was more work!
