Grill Guard/push Bumpers

ColoradoSkiCountry · January 26, 2010

Hello All:

I am looking for brand names to research for full grill guards with rubber push bumpers. Anyone have any ideas? Also, as far as winches go, what brands are the best?

Thanks,

Ryan

I have a ranchhand grill guard. The rubber pads are an option.

I am thinking about a grill guard for my truck, but I need some info....

I bought an older truck that had one a few years ago....it shook like crazy and drove me nuts so I removed it....

I have no idea what brand it was and don't mind spending the money for a good one....do they all shake and shimmy or just the cheap ones???

The ranchhand is built like a brick $hit house. Just do a google search for them. Mine run me $600 after tax.

i got my TrailFX brushguard dor dirt cheap... 320 brand new.. it was very easy to install and only has a very small amount of play in it. has pre drilled holes for lights too and its got the rubber strips on the front...

Great info, thanks. Does the guard attach to the frame or just the bumper?

KMGZ400 · January 27, 2010

it attaches only to the frame.. all i had to do was remove the tow hooks and bolt it on which is very easy.

I have a deezee and it attach to the frame. It was around $550.

Dee Zee, Go Industries, and Steel Craft also make some nice ones.

well after doing some looking, I've narrowed it down to the following:

From Ranchland:

2008 GMC 2500 HD Pick-up Legend Front End Replacement

2008 GMC 2500 HD Pick-up GMC Legend Grille Guard

Steelcraft (It's REALLY tugging at me)

Go Industries: (Also REALLY tugging at me)

Can you fit a bug guard on still with the grill guard? How much room is there inbetween the guard and hood? Thanks

I have a Westin Sportsman on my truck and I like it.

Of what you have listed, go with the Steelcraft

its only about 3 inches but you could fit a bug guard.. might be a little hard to open the hood though...
