Thanks Tuc4R
unfortunately my rack must have some slight variation. My mounting points don't as close to the edge. Love the Echotechne rack look but sometimes the variations drive me nuts.
hey Tuc4R where you able to get your bar mounted to your rack? i'm running into some issues. The mounting brackets are just a bit to large for the mounting points. Was wondering how you got yours to fit.
Any chance you could post a few pics of your mounting to the rack?
Thanks
I had mine blasted and coated was about $400 and probably worth it in the long run. I didn't want to mount it and then have it start rusting over the winter.
I also just got the same light bar as you from the group buy. Hoping to get it installed tomorrow.
got my light and harness over the weekend. Everything looks good and packaging looked good.
Hoping to get installed tomorrow and will post some pictures.
Thanks!
It's an Echotechne rack made in Venezuela. The Group buy thread has a lot of photos. Not sure about mounting point specific photo's though.
