What LP4 set up did you get? Driving combos for all 8 lights?

I know its been a while but finally in a position to work on this. Did you buy the lights individually and link them? How did you mount the bumper lights?

perfect. Thank you

as a sidenote, I might be selling my LP4 to go with Lp6 so not sure how fast you're looking to do this

Can be a little expensive if you don’t have a winch.

 

[Medicin3man]

Let me know when you plan on selling!

Bumper lights can affect cooling on the Braptor...

I think that is pure speculation and most likely false. Any data?

Similarly are you not worried about the significant radiator "blockage" from your bull bar?

I would do magnetic mount competition roof light so can take off when not using to cut down on hwy wind noise

This was circulated around a while ago

I don't worry about it one bit.

Thanks, hadn't seen that.

There's certainly an element of CYA going on there. They have to cover cases of numbskulls covering 80%+ of those areas and hugely interrupting air flow.

Also, they certainly put a lot of accessory mounting points on the bumper. That's somewhat contradictory...

Agreed - they have to cover the worst-case scenarios

The challenge on our last outing was that a few folks had overheating problems with fully loaded rigs, restricted cooling, and crawling through mountains on a 100-degree day. If you are not going to push to the extreme, I think most will be fine with a couple of lights or a bar.

Interesting case. Just engine coolant temps too high? How high exactly? Raptor or non-Raptor? I think the highest I've seen in my Raptor is about 218 °F

Only the 2.3 was suffering, don’t know how high , but it triggered the unhappy noises from the dash
