Re: Anyone interested in a REAL HD brushguard?
UPDATE!! UPDATE!! UPDATE!!
Took the H2 to Rubberduck last night to start putting some ideas together.
The bad news is that Travis needs to finish a couple trucks that have turned into much bigger jobs than original expected. So we are going to try and get this done by the end of August. Also keep in mind he just had a newborn baby.
Anyway we think we have figured out a suitable way to build the H2 Treehugger. The mount will be similar to the way the SMA bumper mounts in that it will be bolted to the frame of the truck in the front and not to the Hood Hinges. This will offer far superior support to the brush guard.
According to Travis this mounting to the frame alone should provide more than enough support the the guard to knock down some serious brush and small trees.
He was thinking about making the hood pins optional. However they will come through the black plastic hood louver and the mount would overlay the entire radiator core support for added strength.

I will keep you all posted as this comes to fruition.
