I have several Rough Country lights and yes they are good lights. However, I am looking at getting some lights from GG Lighting. They came recommended by a friend. From what I have gathered they are better than Rough Country lights. It's worth taking a look. Next time I buy lights I'm going to give them a shot. Just a thought.

I dont have whips but the GG LIGHTS are worth a look. I saw they were out at king of the hammers. Must be decent. Let me know if you give them a try.

unless you are running desert at 60 you really won't need a 40" RC equivalent. 30-40mph on trails that will allow 30-40mph is easy with the RC. I went from a 40" dual row amazon special to a 20" single row RC and it is easily twice as bright with ¼ of the surface area. Drew twice as many amps as well the Amazon special was supposed to be a 20amp draw and only drew @4amps I think and the RC was supposed to draw 9amps and it drew 9amps.

just the bar no headlights

Id say Rough Country or Black Oak, those GG lights may be worth taking a look at. I have a small rough country on the front of my Nissan the back roads here don't have street lights my bar is 8in single row it lights up the night for me for driving to see deer and other wildlife in the ditches.

I prefer the smaller lights to get a good light pattern.

2 8" RCs outside and a 12" center. IMG 20181010 194203

Headlights only

All the lights

You can see how much depth and width the lights add to the stock LED headlights

I put a 52" curved on mine at the bottom of the windshield. Curved lightbar with spot/flood mix is where it is at. Tons of peripheral vision that really helps when your haulin arse late at night.

Nope... just pulled that from mine... I kept having blown fuse issues at the worst possible times and it just draws too much power for the second under hood battery option. Spend the money for better smaller lights... or don’t. I don’t care....
