By the looks of it, the baja one is the "fits all application" model.....I could be wrong though.

Ya, right. Do you know how much $hit I would catch from my dad? I already get enough speaches on how dumb I am or that I have $hit for brains. That and I do not have the proper welder and stuff to do it. I would rather just buy me a 70's highboy.

that baja bar looks like the one thats bolt right up on to the stock bumper. there are a few truck on here i have seen with that kind of bumper. if you have a welder and you have the ability to weld good, you might as well just build one your self. if not just go check out that light bar

He said he would take $75 so I am going to go over and take a look at it today and see if it will fit or not. I am hoping so.

Well I got it today. I will try ant get some pics of it. The two lights on are brand new. I only payed $65 for it. I am going to shorten the brackets a little since it is going to put the thing out there to far for my taste. It is in awesome shape. Might put it on tomorrow. We will see.

So, how should I go about mounting to the bumper? I was thinking of just putting a piece of metal on the inside of the bumper so it will beef it up some so it won't make the bumper metal fatique or whatever you call it.

Here is a couple pics. They make it look like crap. I have it sitting funny on the floor so that is why it looks weird. My dad is going to get some stainless steel bolts and nust tomorrow. Then, we are going to put it on.

I got it mounted today but no good pics since it is dark outside. It sticks way to far out so when I get back christmas break I will shorten the arms so it will bring it up against the bumper.

I agree 100% on shortening the brackets asap. It sticks out a long way. But you did good on the price. Those are the same lights I have on the front of my truck.

Ya, I know it looks like crap right now but I think it will look a ton better when I get the brackets shortened. I just do not have time right now. That and I need my grandpa to weld it up.

The guy said it was made for the full size blazer so....
