Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey guys - just seeing what everyone has made to replace their stock front ends...

Ill soon be using steampipe (3-4") bent like a smiley face as front bar with a nudge bar welded like: \_n_/ on the smiley bit. ('n' is nudge, rest is bottom tube).

Im curious, because i want to see how everyone's park and indicator lights are mounted... we were thinking of cutting holes in the pipe n screwing the stockers in - but this opens you up to smashing them up on rocks etc.

Cable ties are your friend!

Here is what i have done to mine but didnt make it originally came with side bars. And this arvo gave it a BLING new gloss paintjob .

small talk.

oldgold- my bar pretty much looks liek that now... lol dont know about the cable ties... im sure the police/licensing would reject that =) hehe

smalltalk- functional but a little bit ugly =P its pretty much the same shape as a stocker with a hoop on top?

Oh yeah ugly is what i was after!!! its a BUSH PIG!!!

small talk.

lol, those cable ties are more sturdy than the original bumper mounts

I lost two indicator lenses while they were mounted in the bumper, this way works better, dunno why police would have an issue with it

eheh cos its not "fixed" to the car... im pretty sure if you got a wanker cop he'd bust ya for it...

on the up side at least if you hit something they swing back =P

I was kinda thinking going lada niva style with them in the bonnet, but then i realised that would be homosexual =P

maybe drill holes in the bar and poke LEDs through? hehe

I'm a butcher, but it werx fer me

yeah kind of agree with the lada niva thing being ugly, but its a wise position

Nice flex OldGold.

cheers

Is it possible to use the coily headlight, indicator / parklight cluster and surround and modify to fit in where your original headlight is?

you can buy sealed beam headlights that have a parker light built in, then you just need to mount a small indicator light....joey got some from the local auto shop, but not know for what dollars.....christover

Hey christova, do you need a separate park light when using the combo units to be legal? as i have these in my drover and now have 4x park lights when on.

cheers

I have no idea, interpretting the rules found on our states web info, takes hours and a degree in gibberish...but I can't see it being a problem....saying that, tho, joey hasn't fitted them to his new beast, just in case, and will fit em after rwc and engineer.....he ran them on his old swb with tiny indicators on his bar...

i replaced mine with motorbike indicators, they were off one of those little scooters, about as round as a fifty cent piece. came with a mount and i bolted them on under the head light as close to the chassis rail as i could. i had no bumper sticking out past the rail and i never damaged one in two years of abuse.

how much, Paul? They look slick as. Be sure to stick up some photies when you get them mounted.

RBs front bar alway appealed to me, pity those LEDs are so long, if they were about 150mm would be able to sink them flush verticle next to the head light, that would be sweet.

you could have at least mounted the indicators/parkers on the same angle

i was going to say that but didnt have the heart to tell him =P heehee

If your after LED stop lights, flickers etc pm me because my mate can get them realy cheap and he has 100's to chose from so i think he would have somthing to suit what you want.
