Where to mount Driving Lights?
here are some pics of the frame and the hole in the frame
this first one is the bracket and frame on the drivers side:
this next one is of the outside side of the drivers side frame member. it shows the hole location which is the same on the other side of the member.
this last pic is what you would see if you were laying on your back under my truck. it shows that light mount, the frame and the light itself.
if i get time soon i will try to get the measurements of the brackets and draw them up i cad and post the drawing

Nice look with those lights. Did you mount them to the fiberglass bar behind the grille? Been looking for some lights around here like that but have only found the cheap ones at local auto parts stores. One store had Hella 530`s that looked pretty good. Drive a lot of back roads to VA from NC and need some extra umph to help out the high beams. KC`s are good but also only available in off road versions at local store. Found some PIAA models at Ricer store but they were 200.00 plus.
Any suggestions on a good pair of lights that are street legal but will help the sorry high beams? Prefer the rectangle design like Firezap but if the deal is right will go round
