 I've put the mirrors and the KC lights on. The mount for the lights is horrible. Off road they just bounce around.

 This was one of my hunting trips, but didn't have any luck.

 Chewy_719,
When you start looking for a lift, Super Lift is what I used but "there is another" manufacturer making a kit.
I think its Rough Country but check it out, the price is similar but the RC Lift looks rugged.

The Light Bar you have mounted to the bumper... it looks like the one from eBay, very light weight, not really made for off roading.
You need one of the Light Bars that a Hoop, secures to the bumper in more than one place.

Luck to ya.

 Chewy, if you want a heavier duty bar to mount your lights on try the one I have on my 2000 Ranger. I purchased the safari bar & the install kit from Amazon a few years ago. It is made by Westin & has 2 tabs to mount lights to it. The part # of the install kit is 30-1005. Here is the link to it. https://www.amazon.com/Westin-30-0005-Light-Bar-Black/dp/B000182FG8/ref=sr_1_14?gclid=CjwKCAiA35rxBRAWEiwADqB378IsDYcnKVPhRH-QzRfr3m47TvSJIUznoqRqa8p7-PxftHRiZfxT5BoCTcUQAvD_BwE&hvadid=214126618001&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9003992&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1o1&hvqmt=b&hvrand=14240204506104997994&hvtargid=aud-840076997981%3Akwd-328378455764&hydadcr=7028_9585527&keywords=bull+bar+ranger&qid=1579636322&sr=8-14

Mike69- I will need to order one and install it before I move. Driving to the East coast would be fun if I didn't, I would have the fear of them falling off on the highway.
