:thumbup:HOLY CRAP please tell us how you installed it and what bar was used!:thumbsup:

So what'd that thing cost? 10 or 12 bucks? LOL

I removed the bumper with the 4 mounting bolts on the left and right of the opening. Also disconnected the fog lights and bumper was off. In order for it to fit I needed to remove the tow hooks. They are welded to the bumper mounting brackets and are what bolts to the frame. So I just cut them off and painted the ends. On the bumper the mounting bracket needed to be modified so that the bar would sit in side further. I just cut out a 4 inch piece of steel and replaced with a piece that I bent to allow more clearance. All in all it took me 3 hours. Would have been faster with an extra set of hands. It is an Aurora light bar, it is the one Rigid sued them over patent infringement. It looks exactly the same except for the end caps don't say rigid

How hard is the swap? Who know of and how to's?

 

[mwdguy]

Hard to take pictures of tow hooks with bar installed. Also had to trim the washers for the bumper mount bolts to allow clearance for light mounts. The light mounts are what came with the bar. Had to use impact to tighten 1/4" bolts because no way to hold the head of the bolt with wrench unless I used a cap head. Which will help for theft.

Sorry bud, but I'm going to have to copy ya! Lol, I'll put my ridgid fog lights in also. I'm debating putting HiDs in. I haven't found a set reliable enough for me ywt
