There are several of my pipeline workers that run the LED 4" on their headache racks...

But they are ***** and always blind me when I am driving behind them lol... not only are they good for our type of work but they aslo take care of them ******* tailgaters :D



Lmao I bet they are, but they do help out a lot when working late with no light plants around haha

Ohhh... you have a 1500 right?

Then no it wont fit between your tow hooks... the 2500's have that wide open space.

Also wat type switch did you use, sorry for the million questions lol

the kits that JJ sells come with a harness with all equipment needed.. pretty much as easy as hooking up HID's

It does come with a toggle switch (standard metal flip switch) to turn the lights on and off

]Pm sent brother

back at ya!

Oh, the mount question - the ones I sell come with a universal mount to the bottom of the bar. Kyle - can you link up where you got your mount from?

Also wat type switch did you use, sorry for the million questions lol

Each bar comes with a harness - and a toggle switch. Personally, I'm not a fan of the switch, I'd swap it for something else - but the harness is included with the lights.

This is where I got my mount. http://www.rigidindustries.com/product-p/eseriescradle.htm I went with the 30" to make sure it was the full length of the opening.. It does not reach from tow hook to tow hook.

You WILL have to modify this bracket to be able to 1) Mount the actual light bar and 2) mounting it to the truck itself.

Once I am able to resume work on the truck I will post how I did everything

just a heads up, the 7" ones........are 9.5" wide.

The measurement on the bars is the LED width, please add 2.5" per bar for the housing. :D

Why don't you put the LED bar on your light bar that you have mounted on your truck right now?

I was thinking about that too. But i like the look of 4 Hellas on there.. what do you think it would look like if i had the bar on the bottom side, underneath the hellas???
