If you've got a Weather Guard headache rack and need a place to mount a light bar, beacon, or work light, the Weather Guard headache rack center light bracket is exactly what you need. It gives you a clean, flush mounting surface at the center of the rack — no rigging, no guesswork. Here's how to install it.

What the Weather Guard Headache Rack Center Light Bracket Does

The Weather Guard headache rack center light bracket is a dedicated mounting surface that attaches to the built-in channel on Weather Guard's newer headache racks. It's designed to sit at the center of the rack and give you a solid, pre-drilled location for your light. Whether that's a light bar, a strobe beacon, or a work light, the Weather Guard headache rack center light bracket handles it. It comes with all the hardware you need, including a full installation guide with warnings, torque specs, and a parts list.

Step-by-Step Install

Step 1: Review the Installation Guide

Weather Guard includes a full printed installation guide in the box. Read through it before you start. It covers warnings, cautions, torque specs, and the parts list. This is your ultimate source — our walkthrough follows it, but always refer back to yours.

Step 2: Prepare Your Square Bolts

The Weather Guard headache rack center light bracket uses square bolts that slide into the channel on the top of the headache rack. Take your square bolts and drop them into the channel at your desired location. The bracket uses two mounting points.

Step 3: Position the Bracket

Decide where you want the bracket — typically centered on the truck. Slide the square bolts along the channel to line up with the bracket's mounting holes. Make sure it's centered before tightening.

Step 4: Thread and Tighten

Line up your bracket with the bolts in the channel, thread the nuts onto the bolts, and tighten them down to the torque spec in your manual. Once tight, you've got a clean, flush mounting surface ready for your light.

The whole install takes just a few minutes. No drilling, no modification to your rack.
