2022 Suburban LED light bar

[relbus]

Has anyone mounted an LED light bar on their 21+ burb or Tahoe? I am looking for ideas. It looks like one would fit in the lower air damn where the faux opening is. I spend a lot of time traveling to our cabin at night, and the last 100 miles or so is pretty dark desolate roads. I have had light bars on my pickups for years and they work great to provide extra light when I am running up north to the cabin.

On my Ram I have a Baja Designs Onx6 20" that works awesome. I'm thinking same light bar would be a good fit.

I'm looking for one too. Or even an LED light mounted on a b.i.g. bla.ck pushbar on the grill or light bar on the roof. I kinda want to put amber lights on my roof though like yours.

(For some reason the part before pushbar kept getting censored)

I can’t believe there aren’t any options yet. At least I can’t seem to find any. The headlights are good, but don’t throw much light down the road.

Well, my attempt to mount my 40" Rigid Adapt Light Bar is under way. Roof rack crossbar as the holder for this heavy light bar. Got it finally bolted down and temporarily installed it to see if I liked it or it looked stupid. Jury in my mind is still out. Pics aren't that great as I was running out of daylight.. It definitely sits high as the cross arms are pretty tall to begin with. It also can double as clearance lights Still need to put the rear crossbar on

Hey I noticed your GMT900 profile banner with the Decepticon logo on the fender reminded me of the DOTM Bayformers Dreads, And then I see your @RIZE_UP user name which reminds my of another TF Prime favorite moment of mine thanks!

GOOD EYE!! Thats excatly what My old burb was built to represent - almost a match to the dark side of the moon dreads... mine was a little taller with a 14" 3rd coast lift. I miss it alot. It was a neck breaker and fun as hell. Hoping some day my new one might come close to the head Turner that one was.
I know it was on barricade, but I had In the back window - to punish and enslave in ghost black vinyl script as well. It was a beast...

Oh damn, nice! Did you see these? I wanted to order a set but they ran out. They look very nice, I saw them on a Mustang.

Did you ever go through with the light bar? If so, how was installation and how did you wire it?

This is on a 22 Chevy 1500, and will soon be done the same on my 22 Tahoe LT.

Pull the front grille assembly off, and basically there is the perfect spot for 1 or more single row 30" curve light bars. VisionX are the ones In these pictures. Basically there is a center bar that has to be cut out, and then 2 bars fabricated & painted in which the light bars mount to, then wire in and put the grille assembly back on.

Local shop quoted $2400 for what you see here. Being a GM technician myself, it sounds crazily overpriced, until you attempt to do it yourself and cook one or more modules and have to pay for that, when and if you can buy one.

I installed LEDbar on Yukon 2022.

I thought about going this route, except then I would have to cut out that opening on my Tahoe, being as it isn't open like yours.

I opted to go with 1 30" curved VisionX light bar for now. I wanted it up higher so it lit up the ditches better. If I end up going with one down low like yours i will probably go with another VisionX bar and get an amber lens cover to help when it's snowing.

If you have a Tahoe 21+, then like me this space is hidden by a cover that is simply removed. there is no need to cut anything. This space is used in diesel cars for the intercooler.

I loved your led light solution here and I picked up the same light bar to duplicate your design. I’m curious, any notes you can offer on the install? Do I need to develop something custom? Is this simply a drill into an existing support? Thanks in advance for any advice. Mike

Yes, you need to make a metal frame there, to which you can attach the diode beam. This place is just a bit loose, and the beam will start shaking a lot. The service center made me a metal structure that connects the vertical supports, and the beam is attached to this structure. And also, be sure to stick a protective film on the glass of the beam, this is the place where a lot of sand flies.

Here is my high beam, in the distance the road is probably visible 2-3 kilometers away. But here I also have the standard headlights redesigned

 

[Elburacho]

Wow! That’s impressive. Good advice. Thanks for the info. Wish me luck.

You wouldn’t happen to have any specs or pics of the metal frame by chance to share? Also curious on the placement of the switch inside. Any cool ideas? Thanks in advance! Mike

Unfortunately, there are no dimensions of the frame. The button is in the cabin, in plastic near the right leg. It was connected according to the activation scheme. Power was taken from the battery. And then we connected to the high beam plus through the activator button. It turns out that when the button is turned on, the beam shines along with the high beam, when it is turned out, the high beam works without the beam.

Has anyone mounted an LED light bar on their 21+ Burb or Tahoe? I am looking for ideas, especially around a Tahoe Lightbar setup, as it looks like one would fit in the lower air dam where the faux opening is. I spend a lot of time traveling to our cabin at night, and the last 100 miles or so is pretty dark desolate roads.

Yes, the lower air dam is the perfect spot and your instinct is right. Since you already love the Baja Designs ONX6 20" on your Ram, just run the same light on the Suburban. No reason to second guess a setup you already trust. Measure the opening first as some owners drop to an 18" for a cleaner fit, but the 20" works for most. Stick with the combo beam for those long dark highway runs to the cabin.

Anyone ever use the M&R lightbar kit? Looks pretty clean and relatively easy install
