Anyone on here make the custom metal brackets for the light bar that goes in the front bumper slit?! I was referred to this one because, apparently, there’s a guy in here that sells them!

I’m trying to order my light bar soon and wanna know if someone on here sells them! Thanks guys!

There was someone who designed and sold some, but he no longer does so. Another gentleman has picked up the design and is supposed to be making them, but his area in TX was hit by hurricane Harvey, so they have been delayed.

Here's the thread: http://www.ramforum.com/f75/install_oem_tow_hooks_14_express-73872/

Sorry guys Harvey kinda put a delay on things. It’s actually a tow hook relocation bracket with a tab to allow you to mount a light bar bracket to it. The final design is finished and I’m going to 3D print one side as a test then I’ll get some made, won’t be long now.

Keep in mind these are for the 4th gen sport or express truck bumpers.

I went to Home Depot picked up a flat piece of metal that was about 4” long by about 1” wide. I measured the distance and drilled holes into that bracket using a drill press. Took about 10 minutes to do and cost me $6 or so

post your light bar thread link for him please so he can see the pics




Bloomy016.....Let me clarify......my brackets are for relocating the tow hooks on the 2013-2018 4th gens sports and express models. The tab for mounting a light bar bracket too was a request from a few other members. This tab just allows you a location to mount your light bar bracket too. Depending on the light bar you still may have to fab an "L" bracket to attach your light bar to my bracket like these guys describe.

Just remember my bracket is a tow hook bracket with a light bar tab, not a light bar bracket with a tow hook tab. :)

Anyone have a pic or link for a light bar for a 2016 sport? I know they are different bumper and insert, no tow hooks.
