Okay, so… bought these pods forever ago (~3 years ago) from a reliable led shop, Seward off road, previously owned by camp 4x4 who did a bunch of custom JK’s. Anyway, I have these lights and only one u bracket. A sorta through search of the webs turned up negative, but I’m in need of a 2 1/4” u bracket to use these lights. Anything come to mind that I can make work with a little elbow freeze and fab?

I do IT stuff so I can buy Jeep stuff.
looks like something that shouldn't be to hard to fab from some bar stock from the hardware store with a vise, a hammer, a drill and a file if you want to get fancy

I agree, I was hoping one of the larger names eg rigid, diode, baja, vision, would have something of similar size, but it seems I’ll have to get bar stock as you mentioned.

Searched a fair bit more this morning, seems that the companies that make similar brackets dont sell them individually. Looks like I'll be learning how to do bends without proper equipment.

See if a local shop has some scrap channel bar that you can use. That would give you the "U" shape that you need. Just a thought.
