    [​IMG]Put a 34" light bar in mine with the mounts on the light bar included in that measurement. I made my mount with an L shaped bracket you can by from lowes orhome depot. I had to put two verticle flat brackets mounted to the L shaped bracket as the L shaped bracket did not come up high enough to reach where my light bar needed to be mounted to be straight. I drilled a hole, one on both sides, all the way through, on the aluminum bumper stops and bolted my L shaped bracket to that. One on each side. I did it all without removing a thing. Did not remove my bumper, grille, or head lights like i have seen other people do. Also, i obviously had to cut out the slots in my lower grille. Wiring it was probably the more tricky part. But there is an AMAZING thread on here for that...

    What are the pros and cons of the two options they offer in 31.5".
    3D spot/flood
    4D spot only

    On the 3D is the spot a switch and flood a switch or both same time? Trying to decide which to go with.

    So The difference between the 3D and 4D is the optic. The 3D is a spot/flood combo with a great overallcoverage area. the 4D is a hyper spotbeam which has a very condensed spot beam with not as much side to sidecoverage. So those are the specs of the 3D/4D not really pros and cons just personal preference. Also for the switch it turns on the full bar. If you have any other questions send us a PM. Cheers

    Installed my Caliraised Light Bar yesterday but I must have messed something up when wiring it because it fails to illuminate. Used the included harness.

    Also there may be other similar lightbars, but the one I ordered from auxbeam.com had two mounting point options so I could just mount directly to the crash bar and the lightbar would sit a 1/2" to 1" less than flush with the bumper.

    They do look pretty sick. For $1500 they should turn the night to day!
