brush guard help

[Bigcheck1]

lend me hand here fellas. i am getting a brush guard soon, but i do have some mounting questions. with my 3 inch body lift how can i attach it? i know some fabbing will have to be done but can any of you that have done this please tell me exactly what is needed to do it. i will probably have to get some brackets made and such but any good machine shop should be able to right? please give me all the details i might need, it will be very helpful. thanks. chad

well yeah, you'll have to modify the heck out of it. It won't be as sturdy as it used to be. Your bumper is gonna be 3" higher now and still, you'll need to attach your bar to the frame (if you do it with no mods, it will look out of place and plain stupid. I had to cut, straighten, weld mine to attach again. I took it off though to install Smittybilt bumper,,,, if there is a will there is a way!
I say,

thats kinda what i thought, but i should be able to make it work, i haev access to the tools and supplies so that wont be a problem, i guess its just a matter of measuring right. i wont get to this till around easter but hopefully i can get it accomplished

sometimes it's neat to have access to machinery and all. I love modifying things that I put on my truck. Make it the way I like (to some point).

Good luck,

would anyone happen to have any pics of there brush guard installed, i'd liek to see just where it attaches. i'd like to see just what you guys have done so i can think about this for the next month. i will be picking the brushguard up this saturday but since i am at school i will have to wait till i go home to put it on. my dorm room is gonna be pretty cool with the brush guard sitting in it for about 3 weeks.
