Brush gaurd/push bar pics and questions -Part Deux (Duh!) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I mistakening posted this on the parts board the first time around.

I recently scored this brush guard and I was wondering if anyone knows its manufacturer. A guy told me that he used to see this kind on a lot of 4X4 Blazers back in the 70's. It looks to be very well built. I bought it use on my ramp truck. Here are some pics of it.

I couldn`t tell you who made it.There could have a few making those.I mostly saw those on later`70s trucks.

Looks like you'll have to drill holes in your bumper to mount it?

Isn't there some old blazer literature that has a blazer on the front with a push bar like this? I like the way it looks, too bad you would have to drill holes to mount it. I guess I will just stick with a set of bumper guards on the front.

It came off of a '70 GMC and it did have 4 holes in the bumper. I just put it up on the '71 GMC in the pic for comparision. The angles of the mounting plates match up perfectly to the shape of the 67-72 bumpers. I'm pretty sure it was made for one of these trucks.

I think there is, but I cannot find it. Ever since I found this one, I just "see" it on a Blazer in a black and white pic, but I don't know where I saw it.
