The mounts? Yup, lemme know.

Finally, this bad bad came in... Will probably grind and paint the mounts tonight and install it this week.
Specs on the light? If it's one of the cheap ebay ones, you might want to try clear coating the light. The black finish will fade to gold fairly quick, then you'll try painting it back to black, but you won't do a good job prepping, and the black spray paint will chip off within a day or two and you'll end up with a light that looks like a cheetah with black spots all over. Well, that's what happened to me at least haha. I'm not even sure clear coating will prevent it from turning to gold if it is one of the ebay ones.

Amazon.. MicTuning COMBO Spot flood beam 41.5" inch - 240W CREE LED Lights Bar CREE 3W LED - 15000 Lumen Better Then Rigid E Series 4¡Á4 Off Road Polaris Razor ATV SUV UTV Jeep : Amazon.com : Automotive
I wanted to buy from okledlightbars, but I couldn't afford his 40" double row even after the black friday sale.
I do understand completely though, as my current 30" single row up front turned bronze on me. It actually doesn't look too bad cus it blends in well with the color of my truck (desert dune). However, it does scream "hey look at me, I'm a giant fake knock-off!" lol

haha, yeeeaaaa... I'll just tell people that. Honestly, I don't care what color it is, as long as the damn thing works. So far, so good! :thumb3:
New switch cover for the contura v rocker (I know it's a tacoma, but that's the best I could get)

haha, I know right. The bar seems pretty solid. I'm gonna make sure everything is tight before it hits the winter elements.

Well, no mock up yet like I thought. I tried, but looks like I'll need some 1" spacers on each end. No biggie, will just need to get some and some other hardware. Might have to wait till the weekend, I'm swamped this week.
So, my appologies... In the meantime, enjoy this video

sick build!
Sweet set up man, took me a while to catch up on this thread lol. I have a 1999 4runner 4wd limited. Just ordered my toytec co's, camburg UCA's and OME coil spring lift combo for the rear. Got a ways to go to get to your trucks level but thats definitely the goal.

Thanks!
Haha, there's a lot of info in here and it's all over the place. I'd like to eventually go back and link different posts to the corresponding mod on the first page. Thank you though. Some of the guys on here have some awesome trucks. I'll have to keep an eye out for yours.

No, I haven't really messed it with much. Too much family stuff going on lately with the Holidays and all. After today I have the rest of the week off. Will try and get it mounted up after Christmas.

Finally got the brackets painted, and light mounted up.. It fits great. I didn't need spacers like I thought. All I used were the allen head bolts and washers that came with the light along with some added lock washers. I love how it turned out. The light sits so flush with the body, the back of the housing actually rests on the rubber seal for the windshield. This actually reduces the bouncing on the trails and such which works out great. I finished up pretty late so I didn't get any pics worth a damn. Will take some in the morning.
