Looks really nice. You sure do have a good lookin red truck, I almost got red, but my last truck was red and wanted a change. Also like how you went with the KC's, I hear they are really good lights, the brightest infact

Very nice. Was that a frame mount or did you have to drill holes in the bumper?

Looks great. I am waiting for my Genuine Steel Products grille guard to get here. It's the brush & grille guard. I'm going for the looks more than functionality though. I have a hard time taking my $33,000 truck off-road where I need a brush guard.

Flatlander:

When I order the guard, I told them that I had a 3" body lift, and they custom made it for me.

Brew1891:

The guard cost $123.00 shipping and all. The lights were another $84.61.

Mudder:

Thanks Mudder! I have to admit, I like your truck alot too, after seeing all those lights, I thought I would give it a shot.

Jupiterak:

The guard mounts via the two bolts that secure the toe hooks, the toe hooks sandwich the guard between them and the frame. There are two tabs on each side of the guard that protrude between the front grill and the top of the bumper, with bolts holes on the ends. You then bolt those tabs with large "L" brackets supplied to the upper bolt that secures the bumper.

Lariat4wd:

I'm in pretty much the same boat, I'll probably never take it off road either.

Thanks to all for responding, and your opinions ...

 

How much did that brushguard set you back? Looks good with the KCs on it.
