How does it mount beneath the truck? Where are the mounting points?

Mounts right to the frame. Only cutting the fabric under liner a little on each side. Took about 1 hour needed wife to hold bar while I got the 2 bolts in on each side so second pair of hands needed for 10 mins.LOL

i dont care for the decreased clearance under the bumper with that - lot of times i need to hang over a parking bumper or curb to not stick the ass into traffic - this would cause more inconvenience than benefit in my opinion. im hoping one is made thats more to scale for the smaller truck and not mounted so low below

They make smaller ones that don't mount under the truck but much more expensive and vary hard to install but yes this one definitely cuts down front clearance just have to be careful. Don't off road more of a show truck and camping

I would be interested to see pics of where and how it mounts

i like that you dont have to cut into the fender. are you wiring the lights directly to fuse box? need one of these to tap the jay walkers to remind them there are crosswalks and signs telling them when to go

Had a chrome version of this on my '02 GMC Envoy, but somehow it doesn't look as good on the front of the Maverick, even in black. Would provide some protection from light parking taps though.

Strictly speaking from a mild case of OCD, the light is off center to both the grill and the push bar, it needs to shift towards the passenger side approximately 3/4 of an inch.

I wouldn't nudge a small bush with that thing lol.
They call those damage modifiers because during accidents/wrecks etc etc they often bend into the vehicle causing more damage than if they didn't exist. And you lost ground clearance.

The rest of the truck looks great though! Just my opinion.

Maybe watch the video I posted above, as well as the link of a prior thread?

Tell me what you think.

Seems like an expensive and heavy light holder.

I like the lights, if needed. The bar doesn't look like it will protect grill or headlights from any deer or whatever. So I personally think it's not worth the extra weight on the front end.

Looks like a problem in states requiring a front license plate.
