This Sunday I'm finally going wheeling again. Get to test out the new tires and lockers. Can't wait.

I bent two brackets from lowe's to the angles that i wanted. I screwed them to the windshield first then put the light rack on them. There's nothing behind that small metal space at the top of the windshield.
I cringed when I was screwing it into my windshield

I need some opinions.
Should I leave my Hi-Lift on my tire carrier like so..
Or move it onto a hood mount? I was thinking moving it to the front would help level my Jeep a little.

Thanks bro. Those are a heck of a deal. I just recently took the harbor freight KC knock offs and put some advanced auto parts baja h4 bulbs in them. They shine better than I could ask for. Im also in high school trying to build a jeep. Always got to find the deals! I think you should leave the hi lift in the rear. That's just my .02$

Nice mods and it looks like you have a nice attitude towards just trying things!!!! Keep that up!
Just a suggestion, where you have the wire running through the end cap of your light bar, you should protect it from the bare metal. Put a rubber grommet in it. Otherwise, the metal will wear through the insulation and you'll be redoing the wiring.

No problem. The best part about them is they are only 5 bucks a piece. I'm Actually thinking about using your idea about the fence post on my own jeep. If that's alright with you.
