Default bull bar/brush gaurd

hello. i'm interested in buying a new bull bar or brush gaurd for my 1995 blazer. i'd prefer a brush gaurd, but i may need tosettle for a bull bar for price reasons. unfortunatly, i have not found any models that are made to fit my truck does anyone have any imput on where to look? im also quite skilled at fabrication, so whats involved in modifying the mounts of a newer bar? any imput is appreciated!

The fabrication isnt hard to do at all. I wrote a How-To on the Fabrication process but there are other ways to do it besides my way.

Heres the link:How-To: 95-97 Bull Bar

Junkyard or Craigslist are two best options. I got my brush guard off of a '95 at the yard for $20. Can't beat that.

Any 98-04 bull bar will work. And personally i dont like the look of the ones that stick way up, but it can be raised up a couple inches from where its at right now, i just didn't want to raise it. Well after i did my 2" body lift i fixed the brackets so it would sit about 3 inches up or 1" higher than normal. It could still go a little further up but i kinda like it lower.

Okay, lol. My bad. To me it wasn't really specific who that was directed towards. But I guess it was to your bull bar.
