Which Grille Guard?
I have an 08 with a body lift and a level kit. I want to know what you guys think of this grill guard. I called them and the guy said he custom does everything. He said it would be no problem to make it work for a body lifted truck, just move some of the brackets around. He quoted me for ~$650 + Shipping, which I don't think is half bad, considering the cost of most winch carrying grille guards... TruckWinchMount
Another Im looking at is the warn transformer system with just the center "uprights" and the winch mount. You can see that one on the first guys truck in this post
And the third is the RanchHand. I wouldn't be able to do the winch (well maybe if I did a front reciever too) but I really like this one as well. Not sure how it mounts to the truck. Could brackets even be fabbed up to mount this one?

You might want to consider the Go Industries Rancher Grille Guard. It's an all one piece fully welded 1.9" tubular guard that weighs in at about 85LBS. It has a built in step for engine access, very helpful. Plus the tow hooks will remain which is not common with many guards. It is very strong.

^^^That one doesn't look too bad.
Usually the ones I see look like total crap. It's like most of the companies that make them can't get them to flow with the shape of the front end of the 04-08 F150s.
