Lightforce 170 halogen on 80 Series ARB (1 Viewer)

[jonheld]

Does anyone have pictures or has anyone mounted these lights on an 80 Series ARB winch bumper? I'm concerned about fitment before dropping the coin.
Can the standard light tabs be used or are modifications required?

Too big IMHO. Coolant temps have gone up! Made them fit with the addition of 1/4" the rubber spacer.

Those are the 170s? They look like the larger 240 version. The 170s are 7" diameter.

Yup the 170 is much smaller, I have the 170 on my 80. That is 240.

Not an 80, but here's the 170's on my taco arb, using the arb mounting holes.

No fitment issue at all. I think it just looks too small on 80. Pic as requested, ask and you shall receive.

Thank you. I think they look just right. I'm going to pull the trigger.

Maybe I should get the 170s. Sorry about the confusion.

240 blitz fit no problem on the standard tabs. mine rest on the bar underneath them at just the right height.

For those interested, I recently removed mine and coolant temps dropped signicantly 8-10C. Doubt I will be remounting back.

 

[junior80]

what's 8-10C though? does that make a difference at all?

8-10* Celsius. Or 46.4-50* Fahrenheit

 

[junior80]

yep, still a small increase

Temps dropped back to normal (82C - 88C) from 92C -98C plus. Delta of say 10C = 18F.
