Default Light bar question.

Want to add a light bar to my front stock bumper (13 Rubicon JKU) I like the MBRP look. I had that one on a previous JKU. On the 13 Rubicon it requires the relocation of the vacuum pump on the drivers side and on the passenger side it is a snug fit against the sway disconnect. I may look at the OEM Mopar light bar. Not as been looking as the MBRP but still functional. Can anyone tell me if it requires any modification for installing?

the Mopar Light Bar requires no vacuum pump relocation. It only requires cutting a few inches off of the factory plastic frame cover. A box wrench, some duct tape to hold the nut in the box wrench, some tightening and your done. 15 minutes and a glass of bourbon makes it done.
