Help me decide on behind the grill lightbar

That looks like it sits higher (and may not block as much light) than the Rigid brackets. What brackets did you use and how high do they sit?

I used the brackets that came with the light bar, I will measure them and let you know.

Where did you attach them to? When I tried, the light bar ended sitting too far back and the fins would not let it sit back fat enough as they bumped against the radiator. I've seen some drill holes into the brackets that hold the bumper covers, but that puts the light slightly back a little more.

I kept my light brackets just in case. I'd live to see picks of how you mounted so I can copy it.

On mine Noah had to remove the rubber supports, not sure how any of you had done the same, otherwise it would not fit, I'm just a little nervous if it will affect something when jumping

Manny - how did you mount it up that high? Did you have to notch the grill supports?

No I didn't want to risk weakening the grill support so I notched the luevers on the light bar itself to clear the tranny lines

just remember what ever u put behind the grille the light output will be cut in half. if u run the a stock bumper i would look into lights to go in the lower grille in the bumper. u can put a 20" in there

Solution: put two bars behind the grill!

I actually cut the edges off the bumpers with a hack saw. Bumpers are still there and work just fine but I used the rigid brackets on my 40". I bought option one as well. I also put a 30" in the upper grille. Very pleased with the output for cheap lights.
