Brian, you might be interested in Primitive's/Paul Eklund's light bar for the 1st gen SG (same bar I have). I can tell you from experience that it is rock-solid on dirt, no vibration in the bar whatsoever. I would, however, recommend metal mounts for the lights you plan to mount. The supplied plastic mounts for my Hella FF1000's are the only "weak link" in my setup that keeps the lights frome being completely vibration-free. I might have to upgrade the mounts at some point. Paul ran both Alcan 5000 rallies with BIG LIGHTS on this bar, so you know the design is tried and tested...
