Hurricane or not, My BADGERS are coming down to spank USF tomorrow night AND I'M GOING!!!

I just hope two things:
1. Clear the garage door. Oh well, have another pair inside ready.:like:
2. Find gas to get home Saturday.:surprised:
:LOL:

so @JP1, you're a short guy like me. Do you have any problem reaching in to the truck to put a beverage in the cup holder while standing on the ground, with your 2" lift and 37" tires?

I'm use to throwing my bag into the passenger seat, lean over set my coffee mug in, then hop in.

I'd be afraid of spilling while hoping in with Coffee mug in hand.

nope, it's kinda a reach, but not bad. I actually like putting a drink in and not having to bend over. :LOL:

Worked half a day, got a little wet coming home.
This is only the first squall of many at the very outer edge of this prick Dorian.
Other thing not helping is it is King Tide week also.

so, lets talk about a totally hypothetical situation. :angel:
ya, you already know where this one is gonna end up, but still working out if this will work.
so I LOVE these KC PRO-6 bars:
upload_2019-9-4_0-12-13.png

but I refuse to pay that coin for one.

I already have four of these sitting in boxes:
upload_2019-9-4_0-14-41.png

so I figure I could just order another pair, and a mount like:
upload_2019-9-4_0-17-17.png

then run down to the metal fab guy down the road and have him fab me a 3" L-bar so I can do this:
upload_2019-9-4_0-20-25.png

kind of like this:
upload_2019-9-4_0-23-57.png

but lower. the lights would have to line up mid height with the roofline for garage door clearance.
:involve:
SOMEBODY needs to talk me out of this...:LOL:
