Brush Guard

I have been driving on the interstate and seeing old Chevy work/utility trucks laying out to die in a field. Anyway the point is I've seen several with heavy duty bumper/brush guards and I want one for my 84 K10 long bed. Anyone know where to find one???

Re: Brush Guard

I took an old CUCV brushguard and made it look like a factory high-end option

And after the front end swap...

100% rhino lined...everything but the cab roof. I use her for mudding and hunting....no more worries from trees and brush.

Here she is at mud-fest
