42" led light bar

Nicksi57 · Dec 13, 2020

Hey,
I've done a lot of searching on the forum but unfortunately can't seem to find the answer.

I'm planning on installing a 42" light bar I got cheap.

Am I able to bolt it to the standard 3 door fl1 roof rack. I think I read somewhere it can't handle the drag which is worrying me?

I've seen brackets that pinch the metal runners under the plastic covers so maybe that's a option.

Cheers

Adam

The factory roof bars won't be effected by the wind drag of a light bar. It's designed to take item that produce far more drag than a 3" high light bar.

Yes true I've just realised they are abit far back so may not be ideal come to think of it.

You want the LEDs behind the windscreen, or the screen will be impossible to see through from glare. If the bar is rearward of the screen, the screen will be in shadow, so the light will be more effective.
