Ive been looking for a small brush guard for a while now, one that just comes up and infront of the grille a little bit, i dont want the larger one that goes around the lights and everything, just a small one. I havent had a lot of luck, and im thinking of buying some steel tubing and welding my own, unless someone knows where to get an inexpensive one. Suggestions?

westin push bar

Where are you located...I have one for sale....Its not black its chrome.....

ur selling one mandy?? what kind is it and how much?

Here is the thread......

There is a pic in there......

Sides do come off....the dont have to stay one and lights come with it......

when you say sides do you mean the part that covers the headlights?

ok, so i guess i lied.... what im actually looking for is called a bull bar... smaller, lower, less gaudy on my little blazer.

They don't make one for our year. I've looked I settled on the westing pushbar and I think it looks better than the safari bar/bull bar which blocks your front tow hooks anyway. It's a REAL bar I've already pushed trees over with it. It's not some 3/4" tubing with a couple of light tabs on it. It acctually functions

what about is the price for one such as that?

Westin Push bars eat monkee... I had a black one. They are more for cosmetics than function. The cheap chrome plated soft steel that attaches the push bar to the frame were weaker than my dead grandmas calcium deprived bone dust.

So then, what would you recommend for pushing over giant redwoods??
or maybe just something that wont snapoff if someone sits on it...

1/8 steel bumper. Like one of those..........http://www.buckstop.biz/

Good luck man.

Er, I mean 1/4". hmm.....these guys dont' make stuff for our junks.

I have a '96 Blazer, and after so much shopping for a Westin push bar, seeing prices ranging from $250-$300, I found this..

"Westin Pushbar (center piece only) Black $176.65"
Now, $176.65 for a Westin push bar? That just sounds too weird for me..
It's a center piece, which is what I'm looking for. I'll throw the brush guards on later, but for now I just want something to look good/mount off roading lights on.
Does anyone know anything about this and why it costs so little? I'm afraid of buying something online, and getting something I didn't expect instead.

oh wow that looks like their older style of push bars. it's not even rolled steel, just two flat blades. I dont know if that would be worth even $176 for me. I'd say still go with the hunter.

Yeah, but I kinda like that flat bar style. My dad had it on his '86 Blazer.
But I basically just want something to mount lights on, and on a not too great of a condition truck it would look better with an older style push bar I guess.
