    Hello,

    I'm looking into getting a push bar with LED lights and I'm not sure which to get. I've been looking into the Armordillo AR Pre-Runner bar.

    Has anyone purchased this one? if so, what are the pros/cons for it. Or does anyone have some recommendations?

    TYIA

    There are many ways to mount lights on your truck and many types and styles of lights. IMO you would be better served installing a legit bumper instead of that cosmetic one.

    I agree with @seydou . If you just want something to mount a light bar to, there are plenty of other options available that are more cost advantageous. The Armordillo, being a no-drill, bolt-on bull bar probably attaches solely to the tow hook of the truck. In a front-end collision, these bolt-on bars do not provide very much protection and can, in fact, lead to more damaged if they push back into the radiator area. If you want a bull bar that lets you attach some front-end lights, then I would go with an Aries or other brand and go into it knowing that the protection aspect is minimal. I have an Aries bar and it serves my LED light bar mount fine.

    Just my opinion, but that's the ugliest push bar I've ever seen. LOL.

    I've looked at this one, but I've been unable to find any actual user reviews. Honestly not thrilled with the look either.
