Hey all!

I'm new on this forum so I'll give you a break down of my truck. 2003 Ranger black tinted windows with silver trim on the bottom of the tint. It's got about 5-6 inch lift with 34 inch mug tires. As the title says I'm looking for a roof mounted light bar for off roading and getting to my late night fishing holes. I've tried KC and Carr but nothing . I actual emailed them both. Carr replied saying that they don't make anything in my year model because I need the attached mount because I don't have a gutter. Any help!! Website where to look or companies? Or even another make? I really like the Carr they should be another make that is close to the ranger I can use?!?!

Thx

 

What are these 'Mug tires' you speak of??





sorry im no help on your roof light dealio,

but i vote for a 2x4 screwed into your roof with said lights mounted on it......



pics will be a must

 

Ahhh damn autocorrect!! It's mud tires!!! Lol. And I don't want to put screws into the roof! I'll post a picture later

 

I knew what it was but had to ask anyways!

 

Just mount a light bar in the bed. Problem solved.

 

i made one out of roof rack rails from a local store called rack n roll. this was on a grand cherokee though worked great for me. cut some L brackets and bolted em to the bar put my lights on the brackets and ran all my wires through the innards

 

headache rack in the bed, then mount the bar to the rack.
i know this is a stupid duty, but it gives you an idea of what i mean

 

I'm not good at making stuff like this from scratch which suck. Let just say what I think it will look like and what it turns out like isn't close lol. The really problem is trying to find something for 2003 ranger :/. I'm talking with Carr to see if there is a similar length as other truck roofs can't be that much different. Then just modify a bit :$. But still it should be easier that this!!

 

why not put a bull bar on the front with lights mounted to it?

 

As Tom said, use a headache rack. You can buy a "BackRack" like what is pictured in the SD for your ranger.

 

I had a bull bar but smashed the lights out on alittle accident lol I figure if it's on the roof I won't break them as easy lol. And can I get a back bar with a tunnel cover? Where would I look to get these?

 

Back Rack. Google it and you'll find them. Here I did it for ya:

BACKRACK

 

Not sure if James Duff has anything but they would be a good place to start for ranger stuff

 

While you're at it you might as well mount your WINCH in between the lights.

 

The backrack plus light bar just seems like to much $$$$. Lol. There has to be something out. What ate some other brand names other than KC and Carr. Btw Carr customer support sucks *****!!! Pissed at them right now!! I've seen a bunch of rangers with roof mounted light bars why can't I find any lol. Mind you I've found some that are well over 1000 $. Lol
