Thanks Fella's I did get the rear lights on as well, just went with some cheap Harbor Freight lights for $10 for now, gotta wait till I get some coin to get the KC backup/flood lights.

Look at post #19 for the way he mounted it

I used my original mounts and have not had any problem at all. I know it will atleast hold 200 lbs
