Rally Innovations Light Bar on a BL... Tool question if you have done them

[JohnSilver]

For me the Trigger had loud clicks, so I returned it. I went with the Auxbeam 6 gang and love it.

Yeah if we are referring to the trigger wireless switch I've heard the controller is not great. I guess I've already ran the firewall so Auxbeam is not out of the question.

Does the bar and/or mounted lights interfere or interact with the front camera or adaptive cruise?

Thanks.

If you have the co pilot 360 it might. I don't have it so no blocking or anything.

I have the Rough Country Bull Bar which "obstructs" the box even more than Rally. But I have ZERO issues with any of the sensors. I even have the 360+ with adaptive cruise. I use it all the time and it works great still.

I don’t have any of the driving aids in my BL except the camera so hopefully no issues.

I have had issues before when going thru the firewall which is why I am thinking wireless.. trigger or ghost box..

the wife will act as the holder…. What lights did you go with ?

I have the Rigid Cubes on the light bar and Auxbeam for ditch lights

No issues with mine and I have 4 pod lights on the bar

Guys,

Got my parts and wrenches in but I can’t for the life of me break the bolts on the badlands tow hooks.

Any hints/tricks as I really don’t want to strip the heads !

Thanks
Lou

Given their purpose, I would imagine these are torqued to a high value. You'll likely need an impact wrench or a breaker bar to get them off. You should probably know what the torque value is so you can properly reinstall them.

A lot of times tow hook bolts are reverse threaded.

Really ??

Really ??

The rear recovery pin is reverse threaded.
I would guess that the front hook threads would be the same.
I am not sure about the bolts that go through the weldment.

Front hooks don't thread in has a nut on the end pretty sure it's regular thread not left hand.

Ok, a little penetrating oil (Blaster) and a longer flex head socket and they were easily removed. They are stand threading.. lefty loosey, righty righty…

My wife’s smaller hands were essential in getting the bolts back in !!
Thanks for all the help
Lou
