Roof mounted light rack opinion

[Lowrange2]

Please ignore the obviously fubar'd parts of the Jeep but that's what mine looked like with the lights on the roof when it was fairly nice. Well, it was fairly nice about 30 minutes before those pictures were taken. Once that happened I turned it into a trail rig and bought another car to DD. I quickly learned that in my area ANYTHING on the roof just doesn't do. So it all came off.

Don't run the roof rack then i did mine for like 100 bux. I took a stock xj roof rack cross bar and drilled some holes in it. Works great!

You might hate having lights on top of the roof. Cross bars are cheap and plentiful.

Wish someone could find a write up on the liberty lightbar

Read this a couple days ago...probably as close to a write-up you'll get.

As far as the lights on the roof deal, I have 4 100W Daylighters mounted to my rack, and I love them and the setup.

I've seen Liberty Renegade light bars mounted on the roof. Looks pretty good. I'm not so sure about function though. The glare roof lights can cause on the hood can be annoying.

Here's a comanche with the liberty bar:

True that! I have roof lights on my XJ and my van. They both produce glare from the lights off the hood. I set mine back on the XJ (slid rack back) and it cleared up., the van doesn't have much of a hood but the glare is still there. I can't move the van rack back any further because when I built it, I built it full length for accessories for a family of 4. It carries a tandem kayak 1 to 6 surf boards and holds 10 lites. 6 forward lites 3 side 1 rear, 1 hilift long jack 1 full length shovel and a canopy.
