Front driving light brackets

Post by Skidderwolf »

I am aware that there are available to buy online, however I would like to fabricate some myself. Would anyone have suitable plans that they wouldn't mind sharing to help get me started?

thanks

No plans, just pictures of the ones I made. I've considered commercially available brackets too flimsy and prone to vibrating lights, so I made mine double thickness. The silver powder coat was supposed to emulate chrome. I mounted the lights over the licence plate brackets also to reduce vibration.

I made mine, with stainless flat bar. Two vertical bars from the slam panel to the valence. Two angled brackets positioned to pass through the grill slats and a bar with a slight bend in the middle to connect the brackets. Holes drilled to suit lamps.

Thanks for showing your design, definitely gives me food for thought.
