I've been trying to decide between milling my own brackets out of aluminum, or just using 4 x 2" square u-bolts to mount lights to my BX2660. Money is short, so I won't have to make a decision for a while. :) Post pictures of what you go with!

Thanks for the pics that is the route I am going bought everything tonight at tsc ..... 1 by 1 aluminum square tube with 4 inch ubolts.. Your light bar looks great I see you even painted it to match your tractor.

I'd go with steel on the 1 in tube. Tightening the lights on mine was enough to bend the steel one.

Just my 2 cents.

Could not find steel anywere around me without traveling at least a 1 and a half from my home.. We will see how the aluminum holds up

How did you do the electrical? Fusing, connections, wire routing, wire size, etc.
