because for the 75 bucks that i have seen it for, its not a terrible price. and its pre bent, and welded. I would spend just about that in gathering materials alone.

and I like the look of the bar. it will atleast try to keep some trees out of my radiator

Im not that into the stingers. i do think they look good. But I do like the look of the stock front bumper right now. It just needs more Lights!

so whats going to happen when you crush that front bumper? Stingers arent for everyone, it was actually on sale when I bought it awhile back, I would suggest looking for a bumper that you could fit some more lights on. Rusty's actually has a pretty nice prerunner style bumper, just a thought buddy :)

Mitch,  I figured out your problem.  According to Full Size XJ Gear.com, Zone Worx went out of business.  These guys who were once a distributor for that lightbar and the other products Zone Worx made now make their own version of that light bar.  However it appears their light bar is only a 2 tab.  If that bar would would work for you, maybe you could weld a third (center) tab to it?

Here's the link (including the reason why you can't find the bar you want)>

http://www.fullsizexjgear.com/…..htbar.html

On  side note, I Googled the Zone Worx light bar including part number and that only produced one hit = Zone Worx.  So I'm guessing unless you can find a used one, you won't have much luck.  If I ever see one listed on ebay or craigslist, I will be sure to let you know.

So I have the light bar… and it is absolutely horrible…. I even sat on it a week, and I still cant bring myself to put that garbage on my jeep!!

First thing I noticed is that the tabs are off center. I expected that the center tab would be in the center… its off center.. and I guess I could live with that since its just a flag mount…

Next was the Brackets for the bumper were crooked, both angeled up… and thats just tacky.

 

So I sent an E-mail to fullsizexj about it, so lets see what they say back

 

 

and it looks like Ill either be selling it, or borrowing a mig welder and fixing it myself… but its just ridiculous that they would send out a product that was obviously a terrible fit!!!
