Need some help deciding... *Update Page 2 (12/13/10)*
Hey all, this winter, I'm going to get my local welder to make me a light bar for the front of my truck. Currently, I have two KC's attached with light tabs on the existing top bolt of my tow hooks (See Pics).
I wish to have a different bar built, that will still attach to those points, but go up above the bumper a ways, to probably mid-height of the grille since I am getting more lights when Christmas comes around(See Next Pic).
(Not my pickup, but this was a great straight shot from the front)
So my question is... excluding the tabs for the lights and stuff, should I have him make the frame out of DOM tubing or something else? It does not have to be as strong as a Ranch Hand, but if I hit a small animal I would like it to stand up.
