brush gaurd

[5.0Flareside]

what do yall think bout a brush gaurd for Ann's 88? one like this one without the headlight surrounds.

I like the ones that don't wrap around the headlights. That might be neat. Is hers a 4x4? There's not a lot of need for a 2wd

no its 2wd but i like them either way. and we will take it offroad once in a while once the summer comes around. but nothing serious since its 2wd.

 

[5.0Flareside]

ive also thrown around the thought in my head bout converting it to 4wd. but doubt ill really ever get around to it.

OK, admit it.....You're just trying to weight Ann's truck down so it's so heavy it won't be spanking your truck as bad!!!

yeah pretty much. something bout it dont look right. i think the sides just dont look thick enough.

 

[SuperCab]

Eh, do without then

Those JC Whitney ones are cheap. Get a smittybuilt or something along those lines.

 

[5.0Flareside]

only problem with smitty built is they dont make them in our gen trucks. it sucks cause i love those bull bars they make.

 

[FordF-SuperDuty]

Westin makes one.

 

[5.0Flareside]

the westin one is the one in the pic.

Wildcat Flash makes the one I got on the 85. Been a good bumper and its strong enough to push another truck but their hardware sucks so just go to a Napa and get some longer carriage bolts and thicker flat and lock washers so it dont pull through the frame. Heres a better pic than my sig. Its also held up to the rust around here really good.

See how the bottom of my bumper looks like its bent thats from the washers startin to pull through the frame horns. They dont come with flat washers and are too short to just add em.

if you lived closer, id just give ya the one i have here. got one setting in my front yard. came off a chevy that had a ford bumpter on it. i was going to try and mount it up on my truck, but the cut is different around where it mounts, and i would haft to totally rebuild it to make it fit.

ill pay shipping possibly. if its in good shape and shipping aint more than just buying a new one.

Putting a brush guard on a 2WD drive is like an elevator in an outhouse: it doesn't belong there.......

 

[5.0Flareside]

i like it so get over it. lol.

That mud truck I got the Interior out of had one,but it was Black,and Welded to the bumper,and now it's at the scrapyard.I coulda gotten it for like 10 bucks if it wasn't welded on there.
