Im looking for a bar to fit my bumper light mounts. Its 11.5" from hole to hole. Anyone know one that will fit or is adjustable? The ebay ones look okay but dont know if they will fit...

You are looking for a LED light bar that has a mount like this right?
Tuff Stuff Performance 20" Single Row LED Light Bar, 5W LEDs, 5400 Lumens | TruckandWinch.com

I got this one. http://truckandwinch.com/tuff-stuff-...light-bar.htmlI wanted to mount it the same way you are going to but I wanted the double row of lights. All I did was get a strip of metal drill 2 holes and plasi-dip it. works real good. Here is a picture of it.

That looks good. Where do you all get this plastic dip paint from? I live in Canada but I will be down in the States next month and would like to get a couple cans.

You can pick it up from lowes or home depot. My son told me he even saw it at wal-mart. Did you look at the links I posted? If you go with the one that has the adjustable mounts you wont need any plasti-dip.

Get more than a couple cans. Plasti-Dip is addictive. I bought 3 cans one afternoon, and ran back to Home Depot at 9:45pm to buy 5 more cans.

I have a light bar from SAE, they come with side mounts and then they have adjustable mounts that you can position at any width and angle, that come off the back of the extruded housing. You might check them out, they are not cheap like the e-bay ones, and cost less than the big names
