neohic Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Been looking around and CC has some great pictures of factory brush guards. What I can't find is good pictures of how they mount. The one and only time that I have actually looked at one of these was a bit brief and I didn't have a camera. From what I can remember, they bolt onto the face of the bumper with a small tab and they wrap under with four pieces of square tubing and bolt on with the tow hook brackets... but what does it all look like underneath? Measurements would be great to see also, but not absolutely necessary. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParadiseMJ Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 That particular brush gaurd looks like the tabs are just bolted to the bumper. Ususally they tie into the bumper MOUNT itself. Otherwise they may bolt in where the stock skid plate goes. :dunno: that particular brush gaurd gives me the willies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neohic Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 Pictures would still be great. I seem to remember them bolting on along with the tow hook brackets. :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue88Comanche Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 my WARN Trans4mer Grille Guard attaches to the bumper mount... there are some spacers between the bumper bracket and the frame. I know its not a very good pic but it all i have at the moment. hope that helps edit: I think I saw some tow hooks online somewhere that did mount in the same spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neohic Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 Thanks. Not so much what I was looking for, however. What I have is a factory brush guard that someone senselessly hacked off before the tubing turns under the bumper. Tame yourselves, odd-original-parts-purists and shade your eyes to hide the hurt that has already happened:If ever a good time to sound the "you lost" horn on the Price is Right, I think the time is now. And I know what you're thinking: "Hey that grill is upside down!". But look past that! The brush guard didn't even stand a chance! Now what I want to do is repair this wickedness. The reason I'm looking for pictures of factory pieces is to get some kind of idea as to what was supposed to be happening here and fix this horrendous fiasco.

Automan2164 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I think Hornbrod or WHowey has a PDF of the accessories manual, I got the breakdown for the winch from someone... I bet the brush guard would be on an exploded diagram somewhere... Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMCJeepMJ Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 ...And I know what you're thinking: "Hey that grill is upside down!"... I wasn't going to say anything... but did you know the grille is upside down? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neohic Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 Risen from the bowels of CC! Anybody have any new information on this? Not sure why but I got a bug to make my wall hanger more than just a dust collector. Again, what I'm after is some good pictures of how the factory brush guards mount. I understand that they bolt on with the factory tow hook brackets, so even some pictures/measurements of those would probably help me out. Thanks brochachos!
