    I'll start off by saying, I'm old, I like round KC lights and would love to add them to the front of my truck. I've seen hidden brackets before, but I had hoped to find longer brackets so I could easily mount a push bar with some lights on it.

    Ultimately, my main question is, does anyone make a LONGER bracket that sticks out further so I can mount some universal things to? I like the Nfab light bar, but hoping not to spend $200 on brackets and a pipe. I could also fab this myself (would take tons of time), but had hoped someone else had already done this.

    EDIT: Bull bars are COMPLETELY out of the question here, I removed the one I bought the truck with, just don't like em.

    Something like this:

    Anyone know if there is such a thing as NON-hidden bracket? I want it to stick out so I can mount stuff on the outside.

    like this, but longer?

    N-fab had two versions of the bumper mount bar, one with and without a top hoop.
    Finding either of those now are super difficult from what I hear.

    Pre Covid I picked up one for 150. Now if you are lucky it’s over 275.

    Someone in the second gen section has that Randy Ellis bar, it’s over priced and mounts to the tow hooks.

    Anything like you are describing is going to exceed your budget. I’ll dig up a pic of my setup if that helps

    I appreciate it. I think I might end up just having to fabricate something myself. I just don't understand why anyone hasn't really capitalized on this option of just making some non hidden brackets and flat stock. Any info you have would definitely help!
