Here is the ****ty light bar I made. Used 1" square tube that I bent(kinked), some flat stock, and a few bolts. First fab project for me...you should see the welds. but its held even after kissing a few trees on the trail.

I can't remember who did this, but someone on here just took something from underneath the jeep(can't remember the name of it for the life of me, looks just like e30's bar there...) and they just cleaned it up and painted it, and bolted it right onto the bumper.

I have seen a sway bar cut down and welded to the front bumper, but that doesn't involve bolts. Would that be what you are talking about?

4 bolts on the bottom of the bumper and 2 bolts on top stiffened the bumper up a ton. The lights are on pieces of 1/4 inch bar because they didn't clear the grille

Would this one need any sort of reinforcement for the bumper or no?
