I've got a bully one on mine. I bought it for looks and to hold my KC's. pros are holds lights, protects front end, and I like the look. Cons are working under the hood is a bit more difficult and it can't be seen when trying to park. I pulled up in a parking spot and hit a decorative rock with the bar and it didn't even dent it. Just a couple scratches. Had it about 2 years with no rust.

I like bull bars. IMO they look great on our trucks.

I would have a bull bar on my truck if I could retain the tow hooks, but since I'm not able to do that I'm bull bar-less.

Flash!

There are some bull bars that let you keep your towhooks, you just have to read the instructions for them closely.


My goal was to mount a winch up front so I went with a winch bumper, but the same company (Go Rhino) also makes a regular push bumper without the winch mount. They bolt to where the tow hooks attach but also have an additional support that bolts to the radiator support.

I haven't decided what lights I want yet though. I think two Duallys would look too small though.

I agree the duallys would probably look too small in an opening where a 6" round light can fit.

yeah, thats why I might lean towards behind the grill. I just dont want the grill to block out the light at all. Maybe cut out the square for the light. Still like bull/brush/ranch hand guards though. really like ranchhands

so a few guys have said the bull bars dont fit tight. Does that mean that grill/brush guards also dont fit tight?

flash--that set up loks sweet. I have no purpose for a winch but I like what you have there.

Sam-that tire would look better if it were a dirty whitewall

My grill guard wiggles, and it's holding my spare. I also sit on the spare when working under the hood. I ain't scared.

You could flush mount the lights in the front bumper. I saw somewhere else on here where a guy did them in his rear bumper and it looked really good. Only works if you're not scared to cut holes in your bumper.

I would love the flush mount in the bumper.

I think I am going to mount them on the side vents of the grill. Just cut out the little 3 inch cube for them and use an L bracket to secure them. And save up for a ranchhand

tareed94

That's definitely a whole lot easier
