Default brush guard question

Found a nice brush guard for sale and also a ranch hand push bar. The brush guard came off a 98 f150. The push bar came off a 05. Will either bolt up? I figure the push bar would take some fabing but didn't know if it would be worth it.

The one of the 98 should bolt up. The 05 might, but I doubt it will be a smooth fit.

Post pictures of each please sir. Would be helpful.

But your best bet it to just try bolting each up and go from there!

Good luck

The one from the '98 will bolt up, the one from the '05 is probably not going to be a direct bolt. Beings that your truck is a super crew, the bumper will probably be wider than the truck looking kinda weird.

bad lighting or the hood looks like it's a darker shade of silver.

I would love a full bumper. Can't part with that much money. I ended up with the brush guard instead of the ranch hand push bar. Guy gave it to me to get it out of his way. Can't beat free.
