New to the forums. I apologize if this is in the wrong place. But anyways on to my question. I have 00 XJ and I just picked up a 52" dual row led bar off craigslist. I think I may have made a mistake in size as I can not find any XJ mounts for a 52" bar. Does anyone here know of some mounts or a way to get it up on the roof?

I made plates that contour to the roof, and welded tabs to that.
Mine is a 50" though, so the 52" might take some extra work

DetoursUSA makes an LED bar for 40" but I bet you could use tabs to work with the 50" light.

there isnt much out there for the xj light bar wise. i made my own. just cut up some 1/8 plate and some thin stainless and locked em down on my drip rail. this light bar is 52" mounting hole to mounting hole. if you have a true 52" bar it will be 54" to mounting bolts.
i had to bend mine in a bit so it fit my bar. but it worked wonderfully.

Omc off-road and farmer Johnson make really nice mounts.

Nice.. I had the early model one from him. The newer one sits lower and is much cleaner looking

I used some JCR offroad Roof Rack Mounts. The bolt on to the gutter. I just drilled holes for the light bar and it works perfect and is super easy.

Inspired engineering makes some really nice brackets for a 50" light bar. I have a 50 ready to go on my xj and plan to order these when I get the time. I'm sure you could easily modify them for an extra 2 inches.
