Light bar
What do yall think about retrofitting this setup from the jeep liberties onto a ranger? http://www.jeepworld.com/accessories...y/lightbar.htm
I posted this in the not another light bar section in exterior topics but Im not sure how many people saw it. What do you guys think? waste of time and money or worth a try?

well if the lights are weak. Couldn't you just replace them with something that has a higher out put or put in bulbs that are greater than 55w. I think it would be a cool look. I don't really like the raised lightbar either. This would mount them on the roof and would definetly look different. I don't think I will ever put a light bar on my truck however. I don't need to rip it off in the woods.

buck, don't get that lightbar. your trucks not a jeep. it's a ranger. besides, those lights in that lightbar were built for daimler corporation. meaning, if one breaks, you'd have to go thru daimler to get a replacement at a horrendous cost. either fab your own up, or get a kc style lightbar that zach has, or a rollbar and put some lights on there.

Its a possibility, you never know though, The curvature of the roof may not be that different. The biggest thing in my opinion is if the Ranger roof were wider than the Liberty roof. That would be harder to make look good than if the curvature was slightly off.

Hmm i think it looks good.I wouldnt mind it but i definently wouldnt pay that much.I wonder if you could build something like that out of fiber glasss like a custom sub box and coat it with herculiner on top.It would probably be less expensive and you could put what ever kind of lights you want inside.

im gonna go againt the grain here.
I LIKE IT ALOT. I think you CAN make it work and there is no reason why you can't upgrade the bulb to a higher wattage. F u c k all the Nay sayers and if you like it ROCK iT and make it work. I personally have seen this bar in action on a liberty and was amazed by the light it produced and to think I wasted 400 on hella rallye 4000's and the liberty was right up there in quality. go for it mang.

Thank you! Finally someone who sees my view... . I may do this in the future but I dont think I will pay that much for a setup. Maybe try and find a wrecked liberty to yoink one off of.

i would much rather have some big a$$ light bar with some sweet KC/Pro Comp lights than that lame plastic liberty set up.....IMO!!! cmon now you cant seriously think that would look that good on one of our trucks...hell, i would rather take 4 lights and drill them through the roof right behind the windshield than ever think about trying to put that on my truck!
