Hey buddy, just thought i'd tell you, you NEED a cowl hood and visor!

 

[StedsonZ71]

No offense but I personally dont think either of those things make a truck look good. A small cowl like 1-2" might would do but I still like the stock hood better. Little update though, I ordered a 52" LED light bar for my roof, Im in the process of getting mounts made now. And haha Jack that was still the best IG fight of all time

Yeah but I do love cowls on RCSB 400s, that just sets them off. Just cant see mine with one. And thanks! Shes faced some abuse in the past few months so after the LED bar ill be fixing stuff instead of adding stuff. And pewter is one of my favorite colors next to silver and charcoal grey. I like paint that glimmers haha

Newest thing to the build. A 52" Digi Diodes LED Light bar. Hooked it up to a battery charger to test it, its BRIGHT!

I actually bought this about 3 weeks ago. Since then Ive been running around to fab shops and all to get some mounts made. Finally my dad told me he could make some at work. Just got them last night. I took measurements of the roof and LED bar to find out how much they need to bend in or out. The bar with the factory brackets is 53-3/8" and my roof is around 53" from door jam to door jam. So my idea is to make mounts that screw inside the door jam instead of on top of the roof. Then I drew exactly what I wanted with the exact dimensions and he made one.

Here is the bar with the mounts on it. Next step is find out the placement in my door jams, trim the bottom to fit to the contour, powder coat them then finally the final mount and wire it up!

Mocked it up yesterday!! Got the holes drilled in the cab, bracket bent and trimmed to fit the door jam and everything needed to have it mounted. I gave them to my friend last night and he had them powder coated and I already got them back! Sort of a semi gloss black. Ill post pics of the finished product later once I mount it for the final time but heres some teasers!

We made some more bends to fill some of the gaps because me and my dad are both perfectionists haha.
