Re: looking for a grille gaurd

Here is one in my neighborhood junkyard. Is this what you want, or bull bars? Saw it about two weeks ago. I live in SC by the coast so a trip from Georgia might be worth it!

I might go get that if I were you . I'm sure someone on the board will want it.

Re: looking for a grille gaurd

I looked at jcwhitneys site and the ones they have listed for my truck use a picture of a newer truck so i guess its a universal picture and i couldnt find one on lmc. Thanks for the suggestions but i think i might just have to make it myself. Id rather do that then try to make sure its what i want then buying it and hoping its what i want based off of universal pictures

Re: looking for a grille gaurd

That army bar (78)pushed out weird at the top but bolted up to the (88)

Re: looking for a grille gaurd

I bought mine from Grizzly here in the L.A. area. Their grill guards were available through J.C. Whitney at one time. I don't know if this is the same outfit, since they are now located in Alaska!
