Light bars let's see them! Need ideas

Alright thanks again for all the great advice I am thinking about ordering one in the next couple days so this helps a lot . Did any of you have any issues mounting it in that area? Also I am looking for a forum that I have searched for and can't find in regards to adding stuff into your bed I am thinking about adding two pods and anchoring them the bed rail and so I was searching for that post and can't seem to find it .

 

How are you guys mounting the double light bars in the bumper ? Are you making your own mounting brackets our purchasing some ?

 

There's plenty of spaces to mount bars. I took off the grill for easy access. Ill get a pic of it in the am (I hope I remember)

 

Thank you

 

Was wondering if you could get me a pic still

 

Yea man, Ill take one today and send it. Had a crazy weekend.....

 

Alright no worries thank you

 

Cheap Knock-offs (24" and two 7" i believe), with homemade mount (1" bar and some all-threads,$20). The bumper had spots for the ones next to the winch. If you get the cheap ones, open them up and then seal with black RTV. Learned that lesson the hard way, good ever since.

 

What do you mean by open them up and seal them ? Seal them where exactly ?

Great looking truck I knew that looked familiar in your pics that's ridgecrest use to pretty much live there and I have rode through that tunnel. Not sure where that snow pic is but it looks familiar as well .

 

Thank you much appreciated I see where you mounted yours to and will most likely do the same thing

 

Mine's a cheap one off Amazon. No problems with it at all. Cost about $5 to mount it too. I'll give more details tomorrow if you're interested.

 

I am interested please

 

I used a 3' piece of angle iron (the kind with a bunch of holes) from home depot and screwed it into the crash beam with a single self tapping screw on each side. Super rigid. The blue in the diagram is just a strip of metal to elongate the angle iron.

 

Dang set me up right there thank you I think I got it now !!! I will post pics once I get it and mount it all up . Pretty excited .

 

Glad I could help! All you need to do is remove the grill and that's plenty of room. For trimming out the lower valence, I used a combo of tin snips and a hacksaw blade. Good luck!

 

Thanks that's a good little tip !

This is what I went with. 42 inch, "560W" < tested out as a 240W bar. Don't recommend it, though I did get a refund to the price difference of what they sell the 240W for.
