Hey Hilljob26, do you think you could fabricate something like this?

New, these lightbars cost over $400, which is rediculous considering how simple it looks. My off road lights are currently mounted on my roof rack, but I would like to bring them more to the front of the cab. Let me know if this is possible.

There's already a mount point for it. If you look at your roof rails towards the front you will see a Torx bolt recessed. As far as I can tell, that's the only mountpoint.

I've seen someone on another forum that has one of these....I don;t think he was
real happy with it. Seems like there was a vibration/wobble issue of some kind.
I'll see if I can find the thread later this evening......He said it mounted with the one bolt
and sticky tape (WTF...Sticky tape?????)

ya know,thats what i was thinking,there is too much weight for just one bolt on each side,you would have to have some kind of point in the front,and instead of drilling hole ,you would just have to have a support that would use double sided tape and thats only to keep down any vibration.just by the way it looks
