I'm replacing the TIR3's on my push bumper with Ions but can't find the flanges to mount them. Any suggestions on an alternate way to attach them?

Is it bad that I actually considered that for half a second?

A pic of the PB would help. Also, which version of the ions?
SNM and sirennet have ion brackets for the surface mount and universal mounts

The surface mount Ion is different than the universal mount Ion. The housing of the surface mount Ion is the flange. The flange is not a separate part that you can add to a universal mount Ion.

Agh, can't believe I didn't know that. I thought it was just a seperate piece. Thanks!

Do you have the surface mount Ions or the Universal ones?

If you had two of each, you could put a couple of new holes in the push bar for mounting the side ones using surface mount. Your forward facing ones would have to use the universal bracket type.

Also, Whelen does list a bail bracket type, the ION1KB (for universals).

They are universal. Thanks for the info!

what type of push bumper? They sell surface mount ions, or they sell the rubber gasket that you can recess them into a flat surface. or u can just hack it up and use the 2 screws on the back to screw in it.... LMAO i saw a company mount them lik that on the side of a tahoe..... the customer flipped his sh!t...
