I want to mount two led pods and two 9in led bars on my 98 laramie 1500 bumper but there doesnt seem to be any secure place to mount them, how have people done it before. Any pictures of how it looks if anyone has done it would be great too. Thanks

 

No pics but, if you remove the black bumper strip off of the chrome bumper, you will see square holes for carriage bolts that would normally hold up the stock fog light assemblies. For a small light bar, I just drilled two holes on the top of the bumper, as close to the front as possible, so the hood would clear the light bar when opening.

 

 

A Laramie but not a chrome bumper, with black plastic top?

 

He probably has the sport front bumper? There IS some steel in there.... somewhere.

 

The Sport bumper is the same... it has the black plastic cap that covers the fog light mounting bolts.

 

Up thru 97 the bumper is the same. They look quite a bit different on the 98 and up trucks.

 

Mine is 98... 98½ and up, maybe.
99(?) has the step down in the bumper, to get a deeper grill and more cooling (for nastruck).

 

^^^99 and up you mean ^^^ hey you

Mine is an ST so it doesn't have the plastic inserts but where OEM lights would go, there were small slits in the steel about an inch long. I mounted driving lights to those hanging upside down. They fit great and I can remove them whenever. I also had a set mounted in the 'foot wells' or the big openings for the radiator that I use as steps. Those lights broke though. Everything wired up to a relay to a switch where power mirrors switch would go. Again, ST version.

 

yeah I have a Laramie
