Who is interested in a "behind the grill" light mount bracket?
- Thread starter SOcalTRAIL
- Start date
I put KC Daylighters on my Ram and they work very well. I will look at those again in the black color. Hella has some black magic lights that are similar I believe. Congrats on your daughter.
Amazon.com had the best price I could find.

PRODUCTION IS DONE!!!!!!
I got off work a couple hours early yesterday and started on the brackets. I had all the programming and tool path done, so the majority of the time was spent sanding, fitting and welding.
I ended up with 31 units - currently 27 are spoken for so there are potentially 4 extras up for grabs.
They came out beautifully! I test fit a random sample on my own truck and fitment was perfect! There is plenty of room on these to mount a huge variety of lights, and still very easy to install and reach underneath. All that is left is to bag up the grade 8 hardware, box the brackets up and ship them out. It was a long night, but kind of fun - a nice sight seeing all of those pretty brackets sitting on the shop floor.
Here are some pics!

I think I am going to see if I can fit some ARB Intensity's back there, I think they might be a little tall though.

Dude, those are awesome. I know I'm too late, but if anyone backs out on you I'd love one.
I've never been a forum guy. This is the first one I've ever been a part of; but I can't imagine there are many like T4R. Every day here I read about strangers going out of their way to help strangers...it's crazy; and badass.

Curious now what OP has.

An update on the mounts.
I have most boxed up and ready to ship. I initially only ordered enough hardware for 26 units based on the initial interest, so I am 5 hardware sets short. I ordered more nuts, bolts and washers so they should be here tomorrow. In the mean time, I printed out all the UPS ship labels and sent you guys tracking #'s.
My APO and Canadian Friends are gonna be a couple days behind as I have to send that stuff off via the post office.

Game on!!!
I just received my bracket... This thing is super heavy!!! I am super impressed by the quality of it.
Thanks again for doing this SoCal, I know you don't make a killing off it (((and it goes to feed your light addiction))) and it was probably to finally stop all my PMs begging for one.
Now I just need to figure out if I want to go with 2 round lights or one led light bar???

Well whaddya know, there it is!
You are welcome sir!
My vote goes for a light bar mounted up there. It makes for a very clean install.
I spy a gun cleaning mat on your bench! I have the AR version laying somewhere around here.
