Default Need install help with BRUSH GUARD!

I just bought a used brush guard. I'm mechanically not retarded, but I can't seem
to figure out how in the heck this thing bolts up to the truck. Anyone mind shooting
me a photo of where their brush guard mounts so I can try and get this thing to
fit? I've got it in the garage and ready to go. Any help would be appreciated for
sure!

Help!

So my gathering so far is that the tow hooks have to come off. I'm doing that now. Maybe
that will enlighten me enough to figure this out...

After the tow hooks come off, you should be able to bolt the brush guard into the same place the tow hooks came from

I failed to update this. I did remove the tow hooks and that allowed me to find
the holes in the frame to run the bolts through. Thanks for the tip. I was able to
re-install the tow hooks after I got the guard on as well. Not horrible.
