Default 50 inch light bar mount

I am wanting to get a 50 inch light bar for my truck, but can't find many brackets for it. I have seen a lot of light bar mounts for the 2009 and up F150, but not many for the 2004-2008. What brackets are you all using on your 50 inch curved or stright light bars?

I posted a thread earlier about the same thing. I have been looking at the N-Fab brackets but I can't see paying $150 for them. I was asking in my post if anybody has them what are the dimensions and I will fab my own. N-Fab makes a bracket for the 04-08 and another for the 09-14 but socalcustoms makes one that says 04-14 and it's $50 more than than the N-Fab....I can't see that kind of money for those

Try ADD brackets they mount in the door jam instead of drilling threw your roof

I have looked at their brackets also, I've looked at pretty much every brand made.....it's not the style of bracket om trying to do different, it's the $150-$200 price tag......I can't see that kind of money for something so simple! I was just looking for a ball park dimension but if I can't find anything i will just design and fab my own.

Will do! It may be a little bit before I can get started on them, I haven't even ordered a bar yet and I've got soooo many other projects going on and work also.....but as soon as I get something together I'll post some pics.

I've got a 30 on my brush gaurd and had thought abiut a 20 in my bumper but on have a billet insert and don't really wanna remove it. I know I don't need that much lighting but I'm kind of obsessed with lights lol. I put all LED's in everything including the fogs and HID's in the headlights......I can land a 747 lol. I'm about to do a cage chop on my RZR so I'll probably start on some roof brackets after that, hopefully within the next few weeks.
