JCR Offroad

Ok so I picked up a JCR Offroad Light bar for my XJ. First off I want to thanks Eric and Brian for the outstanding customer service they provided. I asked for an additional tab to be welded in for a CB antana, they took care of it without issue for a small fee.

Second i wanna comment on how STURDY this bar is! Now i know its about 130am in Cali... But hay i just got home from work and noticed the Santa in Brown had come today! So even with my quick install and rough in, tighten the bolts down and this thing is ON THERE! Hell i was useing it as a grab handle to climb up to throw the light in.

So with out further a-do, here is some very quick pictures. Remember... Its 130 in the morning!

Rough mounted:


Lights on the outer tabs:




Inner Tabs:





Mounted to the Gutter:



"added" tab for the CB:



I am EXTREMELY Happy with this bar! It does not sit to high, so i will not have an issue with it getting hit. I would recomend this to people who do have the cash or maybe dont want the full roof rack for lights to be put up top.

Again sorry for the shotty pictures... 130am.....






ALSO here is the result of what happens when your "rain gutter" is ALOT sharper then it looks!



OUCH!



More pictures of the rack comming this weekend when i get some real time to get it completely installed!

Thats pretty cool, I didnt even know they made this? It hold 4 lights?

Yes sir, 4 lights. I would say with this option the biggest light would be the KC Daylighters.

I know they have another option on their site that alows use of the bigger Hella 700's i believe.

Looks good, a bit taller than I thought it would be though.

Looks great, very nice set up.. You may want to rethink how far up you have the lights mounted..Try it there first, then mount them back above the B pillar..I found that helped alot for my side and front view..Plus i had NO glare on the windshield...Again very nice set..Only if i had the money

that does look great, and i agree with scott, slide it back some, you are going to get a hell of a glare off the hood (if yours is still shiny haha).

now convert those lights to HIDs and assault the darkness!

what do them things run.

Yea man i dont plan on leaving them all the way up on the windsheild like it is, it was just a fast "put it on to see" type thing. This weekend ima get it all set up and wire up the light etc etc.

This one i picked up was the prototype, so they sold it for 75 plus shipping plus the "added tab". One there site it shows i thinkg like 110 or something like that.

You can't make it any shorter and fit 6" Diameter lights. We are planning to make a "slim rack" that would sit closer to the roof and use smaller rectangle lights (also allow for ppl to mount them on the back for backup lights). But all of our light racks will have the lights hanging below the tube, as we feel that looks the best.

looks good!
