Factory steel bumper light recommendations

[drdriller]

I have the rubicon factory steel bumper. I am looking to put some auxillary lights directly on the bumper with a bracket or something. Anyone have some suggestions on LED lights there?
thanks

I used the Maxiums-3 bracket to mount two 5" mopar lights. You could fit pretty much any aux light with this bracket. They also have a light bar bracket if you prefer those.

Front or rear bumper?

front. Pangmaster--that's an awesome set up. Just what I was looking for. What auxillary bar did you use?

 

[pangmaster]

The bull bar is from JCR https://www.jcroffroad.com/product/JL/JLHR-B-PC.html

Honestly I am thinking about taking it off and replacing it with one that doesn't interfere with the front tow hooks as much. I may end up going with the SLP bar from Maximus-3: https://maximus-3.com/home/maximus-3-jl-slp-hoop#/

I installed a 10" light bar and 2 pods to the factory steel bumper just using existing bolts. I did not drill any holes.

Our 12" and 20" S series single row bars are very popular to mount on the OEM bumper.

We have also sold quite a few 14" PSII or Prismatic bars for that same position as the Modular mounting system makes it a breeze to mount up.

We offer 15% off with discount code "jlforum" and if you need custom brackets made to mount the light bar we can also do it free of charge, just give us your measurements.

Maximus 3 light mount with KC lights. Recently replaced the KC with Rigid D-SS Pro

Mine in the post above is the SLP Hoop. I really like it.

Do you think the 7" Mopar lights will fit under that SLP Hoop mounted to the Maximus 3 Bracket?

I don’t think they will fit beneath the hoop. I run the SLP so it slopes backwards toward the grill. If it were turned around into the “stinger” configuration the KC lights definitely wouldn’t fit. They would probably fit fine if you ran the hoop the same way I do.

The Maximus bracket places the lights a bit in front of the hoop, about one inch back from the three front hex screws on the winch delete plate.

Do you think you could fit the 5" Mopar under the SLP if it was in the position sloped away from the grill? I have the SLP and am planning on running the 5" Mopar lights, but Maximus-3 is going to be coming out with a mount for the top of their bars but I would prefer a lower profile

If you sloped it backwards, as I have mine in the photo above, yes. If you sloped it forward in the “stinger” configuration, definitely not.

I swapped out the JCR bull bar for the Maxiums-3 SLP hoop, and like it better already. Pic for comparisons.
