Default Light bar mounted to roof rack or brush guard

Hey everybody! I'm pretty new around here, so I thought I'd make my first post about some mods I'm wanting to do. So, back in October, I bought my 2001 LT Blazer (also to be my first car) and ever since I've had it, I've been wanting to get a brush guard, roof rack, and light bar for it. I found a brush guard on Facebook for $50 that I inquired about and I might be able to get someone to build me a rack for the top, so the only real thing left would be the light bar, which I am unsure of the best placement for it. Rather than drilling holes into the body and trying to find correct brackets for it, I'd rather just mount it to the rack or brush guard but I don't totally know of the best placement for functionality as well as appearance. I'd just like to your opinions and what y'all have done with yours! Thanks and have a great rest of your day! -David

Both!



Older picture of an older setup, but it's a 42" on the roof rack and a 24" on the brush guard.

Wheels were offset to fit a 2wd, so they stuck out REALLY far... Took them off after tucking a rear tire into the quarter on a trail, and the tire grabbed the inner quarter and bent it out lol.
