DRIVE
May 14, 2026
An accessory mounting bracket is disclosed for use in attaching an auxiliary light bar to the front recovery hooks of a vehicle, such as a pickup truck or sport utility vehicle, without modifying factory components. The bracket includes a first arm secured to a recovery hook by a clamping mechanism and a second arm connected to the first arm by a pivot that permits angular adjustment of the light bar. The clamping mechanism may include a clamp with an upper plate assembly having a lower cutout shaped to conform to a cross-sectional geometry of a particular recovery hook. A cylindrical spacer may be positioned at the pivot to maintain alignment between the arms. The first arm may include an extended portion forming a non-slip step surface. The bracket provides a universal, adjustable, and non-invasive accessory-mounting solution that preserves full functionality of vehicle sensors and cameras.
