I'm trying to mount the light bar but I can't get it on. It goes into place, but I can only get the front bolts on both sides. There's no room for me to get a nut onto the rear bolt and I wouldn't be able to tighten it even if I could. Does anyone have any pictures that I could look at to show me if I got sent the wrong bar or possibly if my truck is different? If it's any help, the front mounting hole on the bar is higher than the rear hole.

Thanks in advance. Any help would be greatly appreciately

Sorry I can't offer any help.....but I sure would like to see some pics when you get it figured out!

If it's just my truck then I'm going to cut out part of the bumper bracket so that I can get the bolt through and have access to it. The bumper bracket is running straight down the middle of the rearward bolt hole under the body mount... And I thought this was going to be a good day! I'll post some pictures with the lights on it when I'm done.

Nate,

Before I cut anything, I would contact them and verify that you received the right bar. Then I would want a detailed pic/instructions of exactly the bolt holes to use.

I called them last night, but they were closed so they got back to me this morning. Looks like my truck is just an odd ball! The front cross member runs all the way to the inside edge of each frame rail and there's no notch where there should be. Randy said it sounds like a 1/2 ton and that he's never seen that on a 3/4 before. He's sending me some detailed pictures of the mounting holes as well, because it sounds like those are off too. I'll have this fixed today along with the lights installed!

The light bar and lights are finally installed, and I'll tell you what, it looks awesome and those lights are bright! I have a bunch of pics from when the bumper was taken off up to the finished product. I'll get them up tomorrow.
