Light Bar ?'s

Hey!

I was thinking about adding a light bar or bull bar to the front of my '97 F150 4x4. What is the best and cheapest one?

Also, which one will let you keep your tow hooks? Do I need 4 lights or can I get away with only two?

Do I have to up grade my electrical system to handle the lights?

Thanks!

I like the Smittybilt Outlander on that style of truck. I'd consisder Smittybilt to be one of the best, but not the cheapest by far.

Carr makes a front tag/light mounting bracket. it should be fairly cheap. There are several pre-runner type bars out there that look ok and shouldn't break the bank.
