Who has done a body lift and kept their brushguard?

[Paraphoe]

Any suggestions on designs for lift brackets for the brush guard?

Although i did'nt personally do the body lift but my 1st gen is b/l 3in and has a smittybilt brush guard on it and from the looks of it it was made for body lifted explorer don't see no custom brackets on it

Small picture, haha. I dunno about first gens, but I know a few have done it on 2nd gens - Lifted95X for one. I was hoping someone had plans or something for brackets.

Bump. Little help?

Just take the brackets that came with the guard and extend them 3".

Yea but then the guard bumps with the frame and I would have to notch the support/mounting bars of the guard. I was hoping someone had a better way.

I have the same problem, my thought was to just weld on a new bracket and cut off the excess. I am going to attempt to do this over the next 2 weeks.

Sorry I did not realize yours may mount different than mine does. I just need to weld a 3" extension to my brackets and the guard will bolt right up.
