No light bars (for stock bumper) for '12-'13 JK's...!?!?

I know it's because of the vacuum pump, but c'mon! The only light bar available for the '12-'13 stock bumper is the RealWheels Pre-runner, and that thing is just weak sauce... Anybody know if any of these companies have a bar in the works???

What are you looking for? I have a rugged ridge light bar on my stock bumper and its fine to me can hold three 6" lights and bolts to factory mounts I don't understand what you mean by no light bars when there are at least two I see daily on this forum

The RR bar is too small... I want the one by Off Camber that goes on '07-'11 JK's--3" thick tubing, comes up higher, looks like a pseudo-stinger... I'm not gonna put lights on the bar... I already have KC's on the windshield... I just want the bar itself, a manly bar.
That one should work they didn't change the bumper after 2011 websites are just too lazy to change it

It's not the bumper that changed...The bar doesn't work because of the new motor--the vacuum pump is in the way, so a new bracket is needed...
You can move the vacuum pump. I think Or-Fab is one company that makes a relocation kit.
"A manly bar".. Mounted to the stock bumper........
I was in the same situation as you. I ended up emailing MBRP and you can order their relocating evap mount so you can use the their bullbar/light bar. I don't have the part # near me but as others have said there are multiple companies who have relocating brackets or mounts available.
