Default grill guard after body lift

Hi,
I know this question has been thrown around a bit, but I want to be sure before I make a purchase. Will this fit considering I have a 2" body lift?

It's a Hunter brush guard. From what I hear it most likely bolts to my bumper relocation brackets? Also I was reading the instructions for installing the Westin brush guard. It was a total pain in the butt, you had to remove the grill and all kinds of crap. Is the Hunter easy to install? Thanks for your help.

Doesn't look like it would be that hard, looks like it will be a straight forward install!!

The hunter install is real easy. It will want you to remove the grill as well. The hunter guard has upper support brackets that mount underneath the grille, attaching the the crossbar of the guard. The whole install took me about 45 min, but you could probably get it done quicker...I didn't realize there were two different sized bolt sets and had to redo the bottom support brackets.

I would reccomend putting some black gloss spray paint on the nuts and bolts though..Mine are beginning to show some rust. (BOLTS ONLY! the guard is very good quality!)
