CUSTOM LED LIGHT BAR BRACKETS

What's up TW
I'm justin
The newbie
Just picked up an 06 TRD sport
I was given a brand new LED light bar 40"
And found that it was a little too small for my truck
I'm not trying to pay $100 for a stupid bracket I can fabricate myself at home
I'm kinda ballin on a budget lol
So I will attempt to make myself some brackets and IF I fail then I'll will purchase some
Thanks
Wish me luck

 

Start with making them from cardboard then go from there.

 

For sure I went out and bought some 16gquge steel
I will go home make a cardboard mock up then begin to cut a test piece bend it and mock it up
Wish me luck I'll post Pics

 

wow that looks really good! nice job!

 

Thanks brother

 

No kidding! I was thinking of doing a design like this for 1st gens and possibly 2nd gens. So that it would be universal for any kind of bar any length. You should market these man! I'm sure people would snag em up! Maybe integrate some different mounting legs like the tube clamps as an added option. And maybe some slots in the bar itself or bolt holes through the length every few inches, something like that..
. To make it 'universal' and suitable to any bar! Works perfect for 2nd gens as it would bolt into factory holes. 1st gens would need drilling perhaps.

 

Thanks man. Only thing is I wouldn't know what size bar to use or brackets to bolt into the roof of your truck

 

I'm sure the specs of my 2 gem and the 1 gem are different

 

Right. I think the roof is more curved on 1st gens. Maybe search for a donor. Idk. It's a nice design though!

 

Let me know man maybe I can fabricate you something

 

Oh I don't need one. I was just saying you could find someone to donate their vehicle to get some specs to design and sell some here to members of somethin. Just a thought. That was my plans but just don't have the time for a project like that yet. I do plan on fabbing up some different ones for mine. Gonna double stack But I don't think your design would be proper for that. I was just gonna fab something up for people that wanted a universal mount with little or no mods to do themselves. At the very least I th ink people with first gens would need to drill. No getting away from that really. Anywho.. just something I've been considering. And like your design

 

Oh FORSURE well thanks man appreciate it

 

Where did you purchase those

 

I have for sale in ebay.. custom made brackets..$155 dlls. Free shipping only in usa..

 

What would be the price if it was just a solid bracket, no design cut out?
