Default 24 inch light bar install

Any ideas on where I can buy a bracket to mount a 24 inch light bar behind the grill? I'm having trouble finding one that isn't for a 30 inch.


Thanks!

They don't really have that from what I've seen. 30" seems to be the norm. But they usually come with universal brackets... you'd just need to find a spot to mount the brackets to. Rigid has a 20" mount if that helps, for the center bumper though:

This mount provides a sleek and stylish way to install a Rigid Industries E-Series/SR-Series 20" LED light bar (light bar sold separately). This kit is made from high quality powder-coated stainless steel and includes a limited lifetime warranty. Professional Installation is recommended. On V8 models, you need to relocate license plate bracket.

I installed a 20" behind the grill a few years ago. I fabricated some brackets that bolted into the frame rail ends and elevated the light behind the bottom grill gap. Non-Ecoboost.

I would just custom fab some up, It can be done fairly easily with a few basic materials from any hardware store. Check ole faithful (Youtube), I'm sure someone has done something similar.

Like the above post suggested. I purchased some L-brackets at ACE hardware and cut a piece of angle iron to go across the grill and connect the two L brackets that bolted directly to the metal frame holding the grill on. I can post better pictures later if you like.
