Push Bars/ Brush Guards
Who sells them for the 80 and up body style? All I really see are the lmc small ones.

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
Are you looking for a new one, or one of the CCUV style ones? I might be able to get a CCUV style one, but you'd have to pick it up. I'm not too far from you though.

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
I had a muffler shop make me one in the 80's. Make sure they use a mandrel tube bender.

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
That is quite awesome but I'd make my own before I'd fork that cash over.

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
I can check and see. I am thinking it'll be less than $120 for sure.

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
I took a slightly bent CUCV brushguard and cut it down to just a middle pushbar...

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
Me too. The older ones are better quality and much thicker steel than the ones you can still buy from LMC and others.
Well, since it was in the 80's, you are forgiven

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
I'll let you know tomorrow exactly what it'll cost. Probably be $50-100 at most.

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
Blazen Off-Road has the best that I've seen, both in quality and price. Not to mention they actually make the bumpers that will fit the early 70's models. Most off-road bumper makers I've seen only do 80 and up (at best), and it ticks me off seeing the cookie-cutter crap for the newer trucks only. Not to mention they charge insane amounts of money for stuff that isn't really unique.
This is the one I intend to get for my truck eventually: http://www.blazenoffroad.com/store/C...per-69-91.html |

Re: Push Bars/ Brush Guards
Yes, sorry. It looks like it would be $75. It is located in a junkyard here. I can either pick it up for you, if you want to paypal the money, and then you can grab it at your convenience, or you can pick it up at the yard itself, which I can give you the info for it.
Let me know if you are interested.
