? about Westin Bull Bar

Does this bull bar require the removal of the front tow hooks? I love the look of the Bull bar but I want to try to keep the front hooks if possible. Anyone with any insight?

Yes you have to take tow hooks out to put it on.

You could have a fab guy modify some brackets. I've been meaning to do that myself, just too much other stuff on my plate. But, as is, they have to come off for it to mount up.

On the 03-05 trucks they have to come off to mount the bull bar. On the 06+ trucks they mount with brackets that attach to the bumper mounts.

Unruly...... I wonder why you had to remove your tow hooks? You should have just had some brackets to put it on. That's all I had to do with mine.

I just called Westin and my bull bar is not compatible with the brackets used on the '06's. So i guess I gotta fab mine anyways.
