Impact9 how did you power all the lights you have on the roof rack, i do not like the position of the battery and fuse box in my screw and will need a power sorce for up to 8 130 watt lights (2 pairs of 2 and a set of 4)its not as easy as in my old sport trac .

I ran a 10 gauge wire from a high amp relay, that's tripped by a foot switch, from the battery to the lights. The wire is covered in heavy duty wire sleave to protect it from the elements. It's routed under the body along the frame rails and then goes between the cab and the cap to the rack. Then I used all water proof connectors and heat shrink to keep it professional. I bought all the wire and connectors from www.mcmaster.com.

My battery is a mess of wires right now and when ever I get around to it I'll be cleaning it all up.

How about waiting until is is actually installed? Oooh, even better, post some pics of it! I am starting to think these bumpers really do not exist...

Another Hunter Brush Guard here. Been very happy with it, and I USE it. (Bump gates) Keeps the bump gates, and smaller branches out of the lighting...

The lights are Pilot Baja 100 watt Chrome with KC soft covers if you are curious. I am planning on ripping them out, and swapping in 4 130 watt Pro Comp Stainless lights...

As far as winch mounts go, I have a front receiver hitch and mount plate that is waiting for a winch, and wiring so I can do the whole shebang at once... I kind of fought this for a long time, but decided that I wanted the ability to pull the truck from behind if I had to as well...
