Mounting DD 50" light bar

I’m mounting a DD 50" light bar to the front of the gfc camper.

The lights have an offset, where the rear screw is 3/8 inset.

I have no real manufactoring skills, so I’m making adjustments by gluing, grinding and cutting pieces of aluminum to the gfc light mount.


Still need to grind a bit, polish, glue to the gfc mount and then adjust and drill hole.

Got the light bar installed and configured to my uplifter switch.
Now I just need to wait until dark, orient above my headlights and then mark and drill for the rear hole.

Bringing this back from the dead.

Is that a v1 or v2 platform camper?

I’m looking for a solution to mount a light bar to the front of my v2 platform camper

Looks to be a V2 platform camper as there are no external struts

Good catch, I’m a little surprised this isn’t a more common way to mount a light bar to the front of a v2.

I’m thinking this is a better option than permanently modifying my bumper.

I think a lot of people mount them to their roof rack

In my experience the light is much better for driving if it is low on the vehicle, so your bumper may still be your best bet.

My GFC is a v2.
I ended up ditching the lightbar, too much noise and was only ok bright for two BD LP6 lights.
I mounted the bar using the lp6 mounts and then glued aluminum to them and ground them down.
