I get the question/pm all the time about dimension and size of the bull bar. It is so hard to say because it's made of flat iron steel. I think there are 15 sections, each section made of 4 pieces of steel welded together. Each piece is different due to angles cut for the welded ends. It is roughly 23 inches tall and 40 inches at it's widest point, and mounts where the tow hooks go. It is powder coated for the finish and is holding up awesome to the elements. I get so many compliments everywhere I go. I live in the St. Louis area if anyone wants to see it in person. I haven't even gotten around to adding lights due to such a busy life. I still get tons of compliments and questions about it and that drives the wife nuts!! LOL. Dave
I thought about getting one of those in spite of the price but didn't like the way it sticks out forward of the front end, maybe if they made it adjustable to stand up like a regular bull bar and came in chrome and allowed for the front tow loops to be kept.
The sticking out part is what got to me over time, and is why I eventually sold it to someone on this forum. I loved it at first, but I disliked how far it stuck out more each day.
It looks like that on the 2009+ trucks it doesn't go back nearly as far as the previous generation, certainly from looking at jetchaser's images that's the case. I had it as far back as it could go, and it sticks out much further on the 2009+ trucks.
Well, I did it again and bought another Spyder Bull Bar for the 2014 FX4. Craigslist find from Texas! I love it. I get tons of compliments and comments on it wherever I go.
