    Measured for the lights I'll be getting. Current lightbar setup won't work. So I've cut another piece of angle iron stuff.

    Sanded it down and bedlined it.

    Painted it with that touch up paint same
    Color as my bumper.

    Clear coat is drying.

    I'll bolt it to the existing angled bar, thus making it 100% removable. I'll do quick connects when I do the new lights so the entire setup can be taken off with 2 bolts.

    Will make cleaning so much easier, and will prevent theft when I have to leave it for periods of time.

    I see alot of hostages, and rockstars. Alot of guys around here are farmers and or their kids and they have a ton of cash to invest into really nice trucks. But I can say they earn them. But you know what i dont see anybody with.....................DC-1's. :jester:

    As for your light bar, thats gonna look sick.

    Sounds really good. One of the best sounding rangers i've heard. Has a nice tone to it.

    Yeah I love it. Best exhaust on a ranger I've heard as well. Lots of people do flowmasters which sound ok as well, but MBRP just sounds do good. Deep, aggressive at low RPM but doesn't skid ricey at high RPM. And it looks good doing it. Stainless steel all the way haha.

    My step dad told me of a trick they used to use in the 60's
    for leaking seals was to apply brake fluid to the outside
    of the seal and it would swell the rubber and would stop
    the leak.
    Personally I would rather install a new seal.

    Yeah it's getting a new seal. With winter coming up I'll be needing my 4x4 working properly. So it's gotta be fixed properly haha.
