Bump! I looked at this bar last night and have been looked at buying it all day. What does everyone think of it? The only down side I see is it doesnt have mounts for lightening. So I would have to drill for brackets. Yes I know I have a light obsession. :bigok: Let me know what you all think! Progess4m didnt get many hits.

That looks like a pretty cool bar. I saw that when I was looking for mine, but I don't think it would look right on the '08's. I went w/ the Westin Safari Bar, it already has spots for lights. I got it for like $110, but then you have to buy the $45 mounting kit.
I've been staring at the same one ($75) and the one that's a bull bar ($159). Both are good prices and include shipping. The bull bar would seem to offer more protection (+) but is stainless (-).
Thanks for the link Kwik. Your bull bar looks great. I looked at Jaos bar but money held me back. Looks good, but I couldnt pass up the $75 "Deal". I say deal hesitantly bc it may be a piece of crap when it arrives. Im gonna keep my fingers crossed though.

Look exactly like a Go Rhino bar I had on my Blazer and it was it was a cheap POS. It took 1 hit from a sharp angle drive way and punched right through the rubber that wraps around the T shaped bar rail. The bar also bent and I couldn't wrap the rubber back on, had to cut it off. Don't do it. The only good bars for trucks are ones rated to push/pull.
Got the push bar put on today. Looks pretty good, let me know what you think. It is pretty sturdy for only $75, but I plan to add more supports through the bottom grill. The down sides include: The bolts are all painted so the threads were slightly gummed up. The holes on the frame used for mounting are only 5/16, I plan to drill these out to get a larger bolt in. The 5/16 bolts didnt come with the bar. This resulted in having to buy grade 8 bolts from the local hardware store. Having said all that I did only pay $75 so I cant complain too much. Good bar, will be great once a few mods are done.
It came in pieces and took about 2 hrs to get on. This time also includes having to go to the store for bolts.
