Installing Brush Guard, having a hard time

lmholmes11 · 08-11-2008, 03:44 PM

Has anyone ever mounted a Hunter brush guard? I have been trying to install mine for the past couple days on my 2001 Chevy Duramax Diesel 2500HD....it shouldn't be that hard. It came with minimal instructions and there is no other place to download them. I cant figure out how the brackets mount to the recovery hook assembly. I will post pictures tomorrow. If anyone has ever mounted one of these brush guards, or have any other suggestions on how to install this, please let me know, its been driving me crazy!

you should have to take the hooks off and use them existing holes to mount the brush guard. i dont thing you can mount it with the hooks on witch thats what it sounds like your tryin to do.

i would have to see some pics to say for sure, but my factory hooks are still on my truck along with the brush guard.
