Been looking at grille guards and there are a lot of nifty designs by various manufacturers out there. I'm just curious to hear input from y'all who've installed one on your truck.

I've got a Ranch Hand Legend on mine. Pretty strong as far as brush guards go. Not cheap tho, $650 new.
Thanks, previous owner!

Did that extra wait on the front end give you any problems? Been looking around for one but I don't wanna have one tear my front end apart.

It's a brush guard, not a replacement bumper so it only weighs about 100lbs I'd guess

I've got a DeeZee grille guard that I picked up from a guy on craigslist for $200 and a short drive. I think it's $450 new? I like the fact that it bolts to the cab mounts instead of to just the bumper. Pretty sturdy and has 2 holes for lights as well.

I got the aires brush guard installed for 299 it mounts with angle brackets mounted where the tow hooks would be with 4 bolts. I like it it makes it look like agressive truck and has the headlight guards on it

I just bought this for my ram. Is there anyway to mount this with tow hooks you thinking?
