Mounted the 20" light bar on the roof rack, I wanted it under it so I colud still put my canoe up there. Now to wire it up and align it properly. A quick test shows its pretty bright at 60w and perfect for crawling at night which is what I wanted it for More pics tomorrow.



Cheers
Steve

yeah used a car trailer.
cost $270 in diesel from Coffs to Moorooka (took my brothers 80 series as my steering is too wild at the moment) thirsty old thing.

it was a good trip most the way until i hit a slight bump at at 100k his steering wheel went crazy like the front wheels where going to fall off, dived on the brakes trying to stay straight and had a car nearly run up the back of me. hurt my arms holding it straight. think he needs to look into that problem.

took from 6pm to 8am up and back. didnt leave qld till 3am

she is all home and good now.
fun part is stripping it

Here's a short video of the light bar, switch it to HD for a better picture. Also bear in mind the low Beams are 90W with upgraded loom so way better than stock just doesn't show up so well in the video, as a comparision it gives you a good idea though.


Cheers
Steve

I got it from the sponsor who was at Jambo (SeSp) but I picked mine up a week before just had no time to fit it.

Cheers
