Brush guard compatibility

looking to buy this for 75 on cl, wondering if it would work on my 94. It came off of a 99 f350, how similar is mounting something like this between vehicles?

F series frames are a little wider but little custom work and it will work. I actually have a 80s model dodge front bumper on my 99 e350

I'd give it a go. It's not a big difference like 1 or 2 inches per side.

The price is right especially if it includes the Hella set-up too.

Occasionally I've thought to install a Setina Push Bar, similar to what police vehicles use. Not that I'd be in pursuit of anyone, never know when pushing someone out of a busy traffic lane would be beneficial.

Love to see your progress if you adapt this to your van---would be very interesting!

Has a receiver hitch on it, too. Nice for front bike racks or other accessories if you want. Wouldn't put too much weight on it, though.

You'll likely have to trim the air dam for the brackets.

Got that right. I want a safari rack but I got a ladder rack in the way. I need a place to mount my spare cause my hitch won't allow me to use the original location. Cheap azz hidden hitch
