I'm aware of the Randy Elis bars but they're 3 months back ordered and expensive.

Anyone else make a front bumper area light bar I can mount a few KCs to?

I was actually looking into this pretty extensively last night as well.

The Randy Ellis bar is way overpriced for what it is, no two ways about it. I personally don't think it looks good either, but it is one of the only options for aftermarket lights on the stock bumper.

I have seen some light bars mounted to the grill, creating brackets behind the grill (don't need to cut grill apart), like i've attached.

I think the other option for light is an A pillar mount for ditch lights. I'm thinking about doing this with the baja designs, amber LP4.

So I’m going to be committing blasphemy by mounting this directly TO the bumper with rivnuts. It covers that lower opening/gap perfectly.

I was going to attach it to the grill above the RAM but after playing with the brackets and mounting options I don’t think it’ll come out as clean.

When reading the first post I had the same thought. Just mount direct to bumper or do something like @Greenhills mentioned. Both would be clean solutions and probably the route I will go when it comes time.

That thing is an abomination. Reminds me of something like the Grumper.

As another option…


I’m planning to mount a pair of flush-mount Diode Dynamics SSC2 lights in the plastic fog light bezels directly below the stock LED foglights. It’s going to be a tight fit but I think it will fit…Not as much light as any of these big lights/bars, bars but should add some more to augment the factory lights…I’ve heard they are powerful little buggers.

I did like that one with the ability to remove the middle bracket. I reached out to the guy that makes them but they’re priced way too high unfortunately.

Yep, a bit over priced. Talked to the guy about them. he has a CNC shop and makes parts for Ducati's. He bought a Power Wagon, and like others, wanted a light bar but didn't like what was available. So he designed and built his own.

When I get around to it, I'm going to look at mounting a light bar either behind the grill, or between the grill and bumper. Just got other projects I'm working on right now.

Probably blocks more of the front camera than the Elis bar. Also, looks way too tacked on for me (even more than the Elis bar).

I got the 25”
They have a taller version as well.
Longer would possibly fit but I feel it wouldn’t be as flush with the bumper, I’ll snap some daytime pics tomorrow. Out of all the bars I looked at they were the only ones where you can control the white and amber separately. The lenses can also be replaced with spot/flood in white or amber.

Could we get some close up pictures of the clearance with the grill as well as the mounting points? It looks great!
I’ll take some tomorrow. I got sidetracked getting the last of my Xmas shopping done.
