Fabbed up some brackets for my 30 inch lightbar out of 3/16 aluminum plate.
Was going to by some brackets from RI but at $163, NO THANK YOU.
Cut out with my Eastwood plasma cutter like a knife through butter.
Then powder coated the black with my Sears powder coating gun.[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

 

looks pretty good man. i like that you can fold it away for those pesky parking garages. i couldnt help but notice but do you have the Rough Country winch mounting plate too?

 

The hidden winch mount is the Raptor mount from SDHQ. Fits the the 2009-2013 F150 as well

 

ok i have the rough country one. i looked at that one but it was kinda out of my price range. the RC was only 200. about how much did you give for that light bar if you dont mind me asking?

 

In for night pics. That looks like it could signal the ISS.

 

The lightbar is 16 thousand lumens.Pretty damn bright. Its an MR bar that goes for a ridiculous $600 plus, but it was a Craigs list find for $300 locally.
The only thing left to do to the 'MoneyPit" is install a/c power. I have a PEAK 1800 watt inverter with 2 flushmount outlets and USB with an on/off switch. Probably going to mount on the passenger side of the console.
Then, IM DONE

 

Theres no such thing, you know this to be true......

 

Nice fab job!

 

Not sure what Gerrard155 is talking about. I would suggest going to the RI or MR websites. Their specs, not mine

Got to love a hater!

 

Looks sharp!

 

Really wanna see some night pics of it.

 

Lol, sorry I should have been more specific-There is no such thing as done. Its only a matter of time before you spot something else that would be neat to have on your truck. Not trying to be negative about it at all-I am the exact same way(mods=good). Been eyeballing some led light bars myself as a matter of fact-although for a front mount application. I know they are very nice, but I also know they are damn expensive and I am working hard to convince the banker to let me go for it. We'll see.....

 

My apologies to Gerrard155. I missunderstood.
By the way, I found a website for lightbars that has prices about 1/2 that anyone else has. Dont know about the quality.
