Lightbar mounted to top bar of bullbar opinions/thoughts? (1 Viewer)

[ElmoTheDestroyr]

Hi,

I'm considering adding a 32" lightbar mounted to the top of my bullbar for some extra light...

I was just curious what opinions are of doing that? I've seen some other rigs with this setup and it seems like a good way to get some extra light w/out having the hood glare caused by a roof-mounted bar.

I'm a little concerned about noise, maybe even gas mileage impact due to it being right on the front of the truck disrupting the windflow going over the hood. Maybe that is a silly concern, I don't know... lol

Any other thoughts/opinions would be appreciated... Maybe it's too in the way when you're working under the hood? Too ugly? ... Just trying to think of all the pros/cons before I spend the money..

Here's a few examples of what I'm talking about... Thanks!

I like mine, no issues with noise. Has a 20", now a 23", and going to try a 31" next.

You could also mount it below the top bar, still using the tabs there, if you size it properly.

The only problem I have with bars on 80 at least ( mine ) it's how they look on the old 80 look ..
