Weston makes the bar for 1998+ years. It's not structural, and it interferes with your tow hooks straight on.

I have one, but I'm usually the one doing the pulling -a so it doesn't matter to me!

I have the Westin bull bar on mine. Yeah it covers the tow hooks. There is not really any room behind it for a winch, plus it's not strong at all to handle a winch. Here's a picture of mine with it and you can see there's no room.

This bar is just for the lights, nothing else.

Big, so your saying the weston bar DOES fit but the bolt holes do not align so therefore all I need to do is drill holes and bolt it up?? I thought the SHAPE of the frame was in question.
