50" on your ranger will be way too big. The 50" on my 2000 f150 is wider than the doors. I bought a 40" tor my ranger, which is just right...

Am i going to have to weld these on? Or can they be bolted on? Does anyone have pictures of the inside of the door and how they attached it? I really want to put this on

That's funny. I made something similar for my F150 when I mounted my 50" curved. Definitely going to redo it, and sell my curved bar for a straight...

My Question

Has anyone noticed a significant drop in mileage with installation of the LED type bars. I installed a Carr bar and 4 KC's on my '92 back in the day and I swear I lost 3-4MPG.

Not a big deal in 93, significantly more important now. As my '99 is my traveling/long distance exploration rig I'm trying to be mindful of mileage penalties.
