I don't have one, but on here I have seen them made one of three ways.

1. Your stock roof rack modified.
2. Thule roof rack cross bar.
3. Completely home built.

I haven't really seen anyone buy a light bar specifically, mostly modding the roof racks by drilling through and mounting them on top.

Use the stock crossbars

I like the Carr light bars, they are good quality. A friend of mine has been running one on his xj for atleast 8 yrs. and I think he bought it used. Not a bad price either, I like the added option of folding the lights down for low clearance areas.

This should be in chat, since your just asking opinons

The "walmart lightbar" works great until you start driving, especially off road. The stock crossbar is not designed for the lights and it will bounce and vibrate like crazy, meaning the light will not stay where you want it.

Also this does not belong in fabrication. This problem is running rampant.

This is the bar I have mounted on my roof. I have 4 Hella 500s up there and am happy with it. the only thing is that the hardware is not stainless which is kind of annoying but other than that it is a good bar.

Not the "cheapest" but right around the same as the Carr.

I just picked up a stock roof rail and drilled 4 holes.

I wish the crossrack mounts went all the way front to back on the roof on the 97+ like they did on the old ones... Would make light rack installation much easier. Though I heard the stock bars aren't really great for light mounts as they're curved and the lights wobble themselves loose...

I have a CARR light bar with 4 KC Daylighters 100w on it

I have the Carr light bar, but, would like to add some sort of off road protection around the lights, so I don't knock them off with a low branch
