I assume no interference with the front camera view? I was thinking of purchasing the MOPAR bumper mounts, but I also have the steel bumper, after seeing your pics with a winch installed, I think I can go without the brackets and just use the existing winch plate holes. Thanks. If you happen to have photos of the camera view that would be awesome.I mounted my BD LP6 lights directly to the steel bumper using existing bolts. It doesn't look like you have the steel bumper though. I don't know if your bumper would have bolts in the same location...probably not if it is the plastic bumper. Diode Dynamics makes brackets that mount to the frame, but they are for light bars only and you would have to make an adapter to give you a horizontal mounting point. Your only other option might be some type of frame-mounted bumper hoop. If you have the trail cam, the Mopar brackets should keep the lights from blocking it. If I remember right, one of the photos on the BD website showed the lights mounted exactly as I have mine mounted.
That looks good, also another question while looking at these lights, I noticed that the specs say they are rated at 90W (FWD Projecting mode), 15W (IPT Mode) and 4.14W (Backlight Mode) each, do you have factory aux switches? Assuming you wired them to be on together which switch did you use, if you have the factory aux switches? Thanks a bunch.To answer the last 2 posts...
Sorry, I have no night pix and they rarely give a good indication of the lighting anyway. The LP6s with the Combo pattern have a fantastic pattern for off-road and moderate speeds. I do have a pair of BD XL-R Racer Edition spots on order that will reach significantly farther for high speeds. I have always used Rigid lighting before this pair of BD lights. The only thing I liked better about my last Rigid light bar is that it had Hyperspots with incredible reach. I expect similar or better reach from the BD XL-R Racer Edition lights that have a beam pattern only 4 degrees wide. The plan is to mount them using the brackets that come with the lights on existing steel bumper holes just outboard of the LP6 lights. They will probably get mud flung on them periodically, but that's not a problem. BD lights are sealed well and bombproof. I hit a deer about 2 weeks ago. The Jeep and deer are fine...but it shattered the winch control pack cover (Warn sent me a new cover) and bent one of the LP6 brackets. The light was not damaged. Baja Designs is sending me a new bracket.
And here's the view from the Trail Cam before winch installation. The winch does not block any of the cam view.
I believe any light mount brackets will require the same type of access. I did use the Mopar Brackets. Grill and air dam are easy to remove.
I’m planning to go with these to mount my lp6’s. Though BD now has a non-steel bumper kit that includes their mounts but I can’t tell how they work.
No issues with your winch and those molar brackets? I had the quadratec hd brackets but they won’t work now that I have a winch.I mounted my BD LP6 lights directly to the steel bumper using existing bolts.
