thinking about putting some offroad lights on my hood.......and putting a jerry can on my truck...

ill get out and take some pix tomorrow, and to warthog, yes it does have a swingarm...i was lookin thru all the pix of it and ill be d@mned if theres not a single one with the carrier in it lol

 

Where would you mount them on the hood?

 

directly to the hood itself...probly either in the front corners or back corners...((not sure of the legality, but ive seen jeeps with lights at the A-post so must be somewhat legal))

 

Hmm, that would be different.

 

I believe you mean something like this

 

yeah im going to play with the idea and placement and see what looks good and as i said earlier...ima get some pix tomorrow for all the Choppers to see what they can concoct

 

nah not much for those.....reminds me of blue lights in the mirror to much >.>

 

for wranglers they make hinge brackets to mount lights on.
like so


i would think for ours you may be able to rig something up at the hood cowl area or maybe fab a bracket to use on the hinge points themselves

 

alright took some pix and did some google hunting...

 

i think this is what your looking for.

for the hood mount lights....i dont see why not.
looks like just angle steel and couple of brackets. i think the bolt to the hing location on the wrangler...i dont see why you couldnt do the same.
i would just add a plate of steel to bottom side of hood for reinforcement.

now the jerry can i looked at the carrier they make for these...looks like you could extend the bolts on the carrier and bolt it on top of tire.
i am not sure of the first gen carrier sizes so i dont know if it would fit to the pass side of the tire or not.

hope this helps
