Post subject:  Simple new front light bar

I have the Mopar brush guard and decided to add some lights up front. Single piece of angle iron 28.5 inches long, 2 small "L" brackets on each side. 1 side of the L mounts to the angle iron, the other side to the existing allen head bolts used to mount the brush guard. Choice of 3 different spots as there are 3 different allens per side, still gotta decide on the best one. Pics to follow if I ever get a chance to finish up the mounting. I figure between the headlights, fog lights, Rennie light bar, rear mounted roof rack lights and the new light bar, when I turn everything on, I oughta fry my alternator! :shock: :shock:

You have the Renne with the HD alternator. You should be fine. I have four sets of higher power lights on my Jeep with the same alternator and have no issues.

Two KC spot lights 160watts each; two KC flood lights 100watts each; a pair of rear back up lights 55watts ea; and a set of driving lights 55watts ea. A total of 740watts.

The stock light bar has 55watt bulbs for a total of 220watts, assuming 55watts for the rear and 55watt for the new driving lights you are looking at 440watts. You will be fine.
