How to mount lightforce to Abar?

Hi guys,

Just got my 170's and am about to fit,

You guys who have them is there an easy way to fit them as it doesn't look like they'll bolt straight on?

Don't know if this is of help, but I don't have Lightforce, but also don't have standard LR Lamps.
If the bolt isn't of the same diameter/thread that screws into the A frame, you will need to get a couple and substitute the LF bolts for these.

However, advice from TFC is your best bet. I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.

as far as I can remember when I fiited mine I just used one of the two bolts that come with the top A-bar brackets straight through the single hole on the 170 brackets. I can't recall it being any more complex but then I have slept since then.... Smile and theeeeennn......???

They bolt straight on via a single M8 and washer ISTR ...could be an M10 ...but whatever you'll soon see Thumbs Up 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Very Happy Let there be LIGHT!!!

Couldn't wait so got the back yard well lit and hooked em up. Was easier than I was expecting.

Went for a spin and it makes me wonder how I did without them. AWESOME!!

Thanks for the help guys.

Won't be able to make it mate, would like to though.

I'll be keen to make it to one soon though.

Say it'd be a good laugh.
