    I wish! Ill be working this weekend unfortunately. Planning on heading out next weekend

    Do you have space on the other side? If not you can mount it in the rear if it wont fit there.

    Hope you've been doing well my friend! I might need to employ you soon for some electrical work...3rd brake light on my GFC went out, hoping it's just a replacement of the light. and a moto trailer I bought has 3/4 lights out...hoping it's just bulbs which i'll find out this weekend.

    Space on the passenger side, closer to the cab. Second gen v6. But haven’t seen any mounts there.

    I have the XB Hybrid lights and the Slee ARB mount with a twin and the manifold, it’s a tight fit but I was able to get everything in there. You just need to play around with where things sit.

    Here is how it sits today

    I know I took the bumper off, definitely the washer fluid reservoir and likely other stuff there and then reinstalled everything after changing the lights

    Don’t judge me, I know she’s dirty!! But I have the single mount that slee makes that puts it right near the power steering resi. Had to leave it there because I don’t have the original mount for the resi anymore. Third image is closer to the cab where I have tons of space, but don’t know if any mounts for that area. I have a snorkel so I’m not sure the mount you have will work for my application

    I didn't realize there was such a big difference between the Slee single and twin mounts, does the single mount it horizontally vice vertically like the twin? There are definitely mounts made for that area but I can't recall who makes them.

    Hanging in there, cut my finger pretty bad a few days ago with a chainsaw but it's still attached so thats a huge plus! No worries lemme know.

    I remember installing them before on that side but don't remember the brand it was but I think it was a different configuration. Have you looked into the kits that put it in front of the AC condenser behind the grill? Ive installed those too.

    Maybe not completely finished but much further along once I start cutting the frame. Trying to figure out a way to cover the shop today so I can work during the rain next week.

    I like that idea, but all the mounts I’ve found are for 3rd gen. Not sure how much different they are than 2nd gen.

    I'll be there, hopefully there are some companies making flatbeds or I'll have shown up for no reason, the location is basically the opposite of nature
