Off Roading Prerunner bars?

[pwknapp]

Looking to add lights and some protection up front on the new '07. Can anyone point me towards a reasonably priced "prerunner" bar?



Thanks, Paul

Thanks guys. Talked to Defiant and that is what I will order. Nice product. I asked them about an additional hoop over the lights and tilted forward. They said just give them the number of lights and their dimensions and it could be added for a very reasonable cost. Just need a little more protection in this area for the grille etc. The muley migration around here sure does keep you awake when it's o'dark thirty.

Carli Suspension just finished my prerunner bumper about an hour ago---I'm loaded up ready to go to the SCORE Baja 250 for 3-days of prerunning Oo. ---Check it out... It's the snizzle!



Fitted with 3-Hella lights and stout as #@$%!

I"ll bet there would be less people cutting in front of me on the 91 if I went that route. Maybe I NEED more than a Light bar now.

another less evasive is http://www.randyellisdesign.com/. I think the one on the dodge is the nicest looking one.

maybe super less evasive?



actually kinda funny but if you read the reviews on his website about the bar, someone wrote in that they hit a deer and the light bar saved the front end big time. He must have hit it smack on. Cool thing with that setup is you are really leveraging the frame for support. I think most mount up that way though.

I wanted to keep my truck looking like a sleeper but now I am not so sure. I was talking to Sage and Mike about a cage today. By the way Your truck is still loud with 2 muffs:-laf

If I recall correctly, the mounts on the Ellis bar are 3/16" sheet metal, whereas the Defiant bar is 3/8" steel plate.

Recent test data:-laf

I pulled out a truck and a ford within 5 minutes in the same location using the Defiant Light bar @ glamis yesturday. SH don't tell akcamper (it was his truck I was driving)

Pulled out a truck and a Ford... implying that the Ford was not a truck? Funny!

So here is a less extreme front bumper we finished a little while ago. There is a couple of disconnect joints that get welded on to the bottom of the frame but after that everything unbolts.

Talked to Paul @ Defiant and ordered a 3 tab light bar on Wednesday. I really wanted to add some extra grill protection and Paul really helped. He sent me some photos of another he had done and it was just what I had in mind. He called Thursday and the bar was all fabbed up and ready to go to paint. Can't say enough about the personal service.
