Default Bull Bar/ Light Bar for 95

I've been looking around this forum and scouring the internet to find that really no one makes these bars for 95's. I recently bought the Westin Safari Light bar but haven't gotten mounts. I've seen people either fabricating the mounts or just welding them to the frame, but if I want to stay away from making the mounts for now, would I be better off using mounts for a 94 or a 98 to make it work? I have a buddy who's got a 98 that I can tell how its different from mine but I haven't had a look at a 94 to see what I can do, suggestions? Make mounts or work with 94/98 mounts?


Thank you for any help.

The 98 would be much closer from a body/frame aspect, but the 94 would be closer when looking at the bumper layout.

I would suggest not going with either; making cardboard templates specific to your truck & bar arrangement and then cutting mounts out of 1/4 to 3/8" plate, bending and drilling holes where required to mount it up.
