Exclamation Vibration Issues (Please Help)

I recently added a 50inch led light bar to my 2000 Ford F150 with door jam brackets, and also added a flowmaster super 44 muffer by cutting out the old muffler and putting this one in its place, but I'm having major vibration issues in the cab. From 40 to 70 my rear view mirror shakes horribly and you can feel it if you put your hand on the windshield. I don't know which one would be causing this, and I didn't have the issue before installed theses two things, anybody have the same issue or can help me, that would be great!

Is the light bar loose? Does it have flex, or is it solid?

It is nice and solid, but the wind can still move it up and down creating the vibration.

Sounds like you need something to break up the turbulence caused by the fins on the lights.
