Does the guy you purchased it from know how to install it?

Where in Texas are you located? I'm in the Dallas area, so perhaps a second pair of hands could be useful?

Can I assume that this grill gaurd is an "ssembled" unit, and needs olny attachment to the bumper/front nose, or is it in pieces, and requires complete assembly prior to installing on the truck? I have found that if it's the later, assemble everything "loose" first, then tighten it all up once it's on the vehicle.

I'd be glad to offer some help if you're somewhat local.

It has some sort of swivel mount for the tow hooks and another set for the bumper. It's weird. I'm in Austin, so it's a little far.

Nobody has a write up for one of these things? I know it sound dumb, but I have looked at it from every angle. I wanted to see a write up to make sure the guy gave me all the pieces.
