I've had my Inferno kit for about 5 months now, and I've always had the front bar behind the scrape guard. This is a very bad place because I'm always paranoid about it hitting the ground coming off a high spot. Also you cant see the light real good because of the scrape guard. So today I decided to move it.

Is there anywhere better to mount it? I'm having trouble finding a new place for it. If someone could give some advice, if so maybe some pics, it would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks

behind the gaurd is exactly where i have mine and its perfectly safe and theres more than enough light that comes from behind it, you just gotta angle it properly.

dont belive me?

though its hard from that pic but theres far more than enough light that emits from the front even behind the gaurd

Its really bad to do it here. The roads are horrible. Everytime i hear the scrapeguard hit something, i get paranoid lol. and when I have to park somewhere that has the concreate blocks in front of it, I can't pull all the way up.

Hooray.

Anyway, No I am not lowerd, but even with my stock height off the ground, it still drags bottom alot and the front scrapes alot. The roads here are horrible like I said. There are alot of drop offs and steep hills.
